For my money it’s a tie between Eurydice’s song from Hades, any of the tracks from VVVVVV and Still Alive. But what do you think?

I’ve barely played the game, it wasn’t for me, but I fell instantly in love with the Bastion and Transistor soundtracks the moment I heard them.
It is my second most played game soundtrack right behind the metal songs from the Alan Wake series. Third is all 3 Hell March songs from Red Alert series. Fourth and oldest is probably Unreal Return to Na Pali and generally all of the two Unreal and four Unreal Tournament game tracks. And the Frozen Synapse series and Uplink soundtracks is probably close to the top too. And I don’t know if it counts but the artist behind the Wheel of Time game soundtrack released a separate almost-soundtrack, which I played A LOT while reading the book series.
And thats just a few of my favorite tracks. I love video game music! I can’t really decide on a single best one.
I love Supergiant Games titles like Bastion and the rest have nearly all their music be Diagetic and in case with Transistor is neccessary for the plot.
The key apparently is because Darren Korb is the in house team working on day 1 with them.
I would love to see more musicals have their songs more Diagetic or immersive as a result, and would love to see more films integrate music better rather than treating it as post production stuff or leaving the temp music in.
If you haven’t already heard it, I highly recommend Pyre’s OST! I’m a little biased, it’s one of my favorite games of all time, but I feel the OST especially improves on elements of Bastion/Transistor’s soundtracks but with a style all its own.
