Although you might have not been a fan of the newest revamp of The Mummy on the big screen, Wayforward has brought the title to the interactive format with The Mummy Demastered as a metroidvania-style platformer that seems to be far more appealing. Looking like a hybrid of Contra and Wayforward’s own Bloodrayne: Betrayal, the aesthetics and appeal of The Mummy Demastered certainly has it’s work cut out for it.
Recently, the game’s composer Gavin “Monomer” Allen started advertising the game’s soundtrack as available on Spotify and iTunes. Sure enough, all 16 tracks of the game’s OST is currently available to stream or preview prior to the game’s full release on October 24th.
Monomer uses a blend of synthwave and chipmusic to achieve his style within the game’s music. The result is a bit like Vangelis and John Carpenter meets the SNES, with rich chiptune variations giving a bit of ethereal synthetic vibe to the music. If you enjoy the sounds from more modern synthwave artists like Mitch Murder and Perturbator, then Monomer’s soundtrack to The Mummy Demastered will tickle your fancy.
Unfortunately, according to Allen, the soundtrack will not be releasing on Bandcamp. The Mummy Demastered will be released on October 24th for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC.
