What video game music are you listening to?

[Helikaon]

[Dirty Duck]

Got a bit further in Death Stranding 2 after finally getting a chance to play it and I got to hear this song. I think it's super sick to have made a mock-Showa era tokusatsu song for the BTs. It sounds so much like Akira Ifukube's Godzilla scores and really does a lot to recontextualise BTs as something that, maybe in time, could be understood rather than feared-much like many classic kaiju. But maybe I'm reading into that too much! It's a cool homage at the very least.

Just coming back to correct myself-it would seem this is a Showa era tokusatsu song. Or at the very least it's by a Showa era tokusatsu composer. I'm a bit confused as I can't find the song anywhere besides DS2 when looking online but the composer died in 2006 so it must have been made for something else. Still cool to have in the game but it's funny that I was super impressed by what I thought was a pitch-perfect homage lmao.
