XCOM’s Double Vinyl Soundtrack Now Available For Preorder
Iam8bit opened up pre-orders for vinyl versions of XCOM: Enemy Unknown and XCOM 2's soundtracks today. Let’s be honest, horrible things have happened to us in XCOM 2. Hopefully this vinyl collection doesn’t conjure up too many traumatic memories.
This double vinyl set is a collaboration between iam8bit, 2K, and Firaxis, and carries an impressive list of bullet points that would make any audiophile drool. The work of composers Michael McCann, Roland Rizzo, and Tim Wynn has been mastered specifically for the tractor-beam blue vinyl.
The wrapping that packages the two 180-gram heavyweight vinyl records is designed by Filip Hodas, and features both Sectoid and human skulls. The sturdy physical collectible is also topped off with the inclusion of digital versions of the soundtracks.
The vinyl set costs $35.00 and pre-orders will ship Spring of 2016. For a more extensive list of what tracks are included on each record, check out iam8bit’s store. For more of our coverage on XCOM’s alien invasion, click here.
