Good news for all you Resident Evil 3: Nemesis fans who also own a record player, the soundtrack is getting published in vinyl this Spring. To be very clear about this, it is a remastered version of the original 1999 PlayStation game, and not the soundtrack from the upcoming remake. Complete with this gorgeous purple vinyl and sleeve artwork by Boris Moncel. You can pre-order it now for $35 as it will ship in April 2020.

Resident Evil 3: Nemesis saw the series move in a more action-oriented direction, while retaining the fixed camera angles of the previous titles. It also introduced the world to Nemesis, a merciless walking bio-weapon who fixated on destroying Jill Valentine and any remaining S.T.A.R.S. members in Raccoon City. Composers Masami Ueda, Saori Maeda, and Shusaku Uchiyama chose a moody cinematic action sound for the score, whilst retaining the series' woozy, synth-horror stylings.

The soundtrack has been remastered specifically for this release, and will be pressed onto audiophile-quality, 180g heavyweight vinyl LPs housed in a striking gatefold sleeve. It is available as a Standard Edition (traditional black discs) and Limited Edition (purple discs — exclusive to the Laced Records store.)
