Dark Souls III OST 1 - Main Theme 

I still won’t forget the comments that said that this is what the bosses hear when fighting us

Elden Ring main theme is epic but THAT theme is Another level.

Tears run down my face as my playlist is eviscerated but the cycle continues

One of the greatest games of all time One of the greatest trilogy's of all time One of the greatest soundtracks of all time ,,Praise the sun"

A crumbling kingdom, A fading flame, an ash seeking fire....

Started on ds3. Lemme tell you rn. This is the best game theme song ever

This still beats the Elden Ring menu theme for me. And I don't say it lightly considering that theme also absolutely slaps.

sad that the hq versions on yt got nuked by bandai

This song gets way more powerful when you have the true dark souks experience which is getting stuck at a fog wall and dying over 50 times but not giving up. After yourblast rage quit youve decided once again that you WILL succeed even if the odds are stacked against you. This song embodies that feeling of being void of hope. Sitting in perpetual despair. You will not overcome without great struggle. And yet.... the ashen one rises once again.

This is an insane choice for a title screen soundtrack. I love it.

they take off all the songs, but refuse to put it on spotify. Screw them.

Bandai really let the fire fade on this one, might have to boot the game up just to listen

it's funny that this was chosen as the main menu theme because it was originally supposed to be the final boss theme, which was Pontiff (going by a different name of course.)

Ds3 was an ode, a love letter, and most importantly a goodbye to a dying world and its final moments. And for that, unlike bloodborne, it's not terrifying, nor is it sad, it's somber and simply quiet, nowhere near the grand scale it once was. And for that i can't help but call dark souls peak writing because throughout all of the three games it told a story of a world that was blinded by it's own desires and hatred between each other, and in the end slowly died due to that. It encapsulates a part of the beauty of life no other series tend to even try to and that's what makes it so amazing in the end

all those hours just sitting in the start screen listening to this master piece are burnt in my brain forever

Fromsoft: “ it’s just the main menu background music players will skip past in seconds, you don’t need to go that hard.” Yuka Kitamura: **goes that hard**

Best main menu theme ever. Still my favorite Souls game too

Main memu theme has no reason to go *this* hard.

いまだにフロム最高の曲だよ

Holy shit man...I will never press that Start button

All my memories suddenly comes back, lots of goosebumps, what a nostalgic feeling

My friend just sent me this saying the person who composed this is doing the OST for the Witch Hat Atelier anime. My expectations for it are rising higher than the heavens

People always talk about 1:37 which is undeiably wonderful but I can't tire myself of 2:05

I'll always remember the first time I started the game and was greeted by the ominous choir. It's like the game was saying "you picked the wrong house, fool". Add to the fact that I never played any souls game before so I noped out and played from the first Dark Souls to show respect. Best decision of my life.

For me the 1st time i heard this theme it told the story of our journey in soulsborne up to this point to the player From going all the way back to demon souls as "the slayer of demons" To dark souls 1 as "the chosen undead" To dark souls 2 as "the bearer of the curse" To bloodborne as "the good hunter" All these heros we played with, all these adventures we experienced, the challenges we faced, the journey we took, the tremendous odds we overcame, and the fate we chose for the world at the end of our adventures. All cuminating to now... the end of the dark souls games! Dark souls 3! Starting as "the ashen one" The end of dark souls! And the beginning of new journeys in soulsborne. While knowing this is your final adventure in the dark souls games, you felt encouraged, and heard rootings from " the slayer of demons, the chosen undead, the bearer of the curse, and the good hunter" to finish your last adventure in the last dark souls game! It might be difficult along the way, with tremendous odds stacked against you in your path! But... it is not impossible to overcome them! So don't give up skeleton! You have a heart of gold, don't let them take it from you! Don't you dare go hollow! Raise that sword/staff/pyromance/miracle! SHOW THEM WHO THOU ARE!!! And PRAISE THAT SUN... ONE LAST TIME!!!! 1:56 And now... ashen one... awake! To fulfill! THINE DESTINY!!!

So many comments were lost and will soon be forgotten, just like ember turning into ash. Nevertheless, someone has reuploaded the DS3 Main Theme, it shall burn bright once more...

This game was so good fuck wish we got more DS3

Prithee be careful…..I don’t want to see my work squandered

Still the best title screen theme ever from Fromsoft and even all other games to this day, if I may so bold to say so. Shame I can't play it on Spotify anymore. Good thing I had the game, so I could just boot it in to listen I guess.

Yuka Kitamura the woman you are

"I like the idea that this is the music the bosses hear when fighting you." Quoting myself on a previous version, quoting another commenter (I wish I knew who to give credit) on a version before that one. And the cycle continues.

Everytime I boot the game I stand there and listen to at least 2 loops of this before having the courage to press "continue"

I remember someone saying this theme is the theme that all bosses hear when you fight them

These playlists are vanishing just like ashes

20 videos unavailable on my souls playlist >:(

waiting for dark souls 3 2

This main theme really embodies the "stakes have never been higher" motif where legends and gods alike have given up on this decaying world where lord kings great minds and progenitors of history have said nah fuck it we no longer care where duty honor lineage matter not ... not anymore its very heroic but also sorrowful like a mourning theme signifying an end of a cycle that has lasted millennia where one door closes a new one opens and the age of dark has been kept at bay long enough.

The HQ versions fade away but our memories and the dark soul remains Be sure to no turn hollow my fellow warriors

Dark then said "let there be souls III."

It has been 4 years since i finished dark 1 2 3 + dlc and secret bosses along with all weapons and boss souls and later lost my ps4 along with all the games progress and I'm only have some of my games that i buy on disc(spider-man 1 god of war 4 nioh 2 gta and few others) and since dark 1 and 2(along with the rest games) were buy from ps store i have no interest on buying them again so 3 years later i got a ps5 and buy some games and a year later now i am finally beating skyrim on my second playthrough and i just finished watching a RU-vidr playing dark souls 1 for the first time and this got me to watch the ost of the dark souls series again and since dark souls 3 was my first soulborn game i am having tears in my eyes right now thinking of everything i did on the game and i feel like there are voices of the characters from dark souls 1 2 3 along with my own soul calling me to come back and reclaim my throne so now ones i beat skyrim again i will beat dark souls 3 and get all the weapons armors souls of the bosses and in the mean time i will save some money to buy dark souls 1 and 2 again and do the same thing all over

nothing beats this game

I tried to play Dark Souls games but it was too difficult, but I can tell you that I did persevere into the Souls games, Dark Souls 3 would be my favorite because of its fantastic soundtrack.

I played Ds3 so much im level 347 on it and man the theme is a masterpiece..im disappointed that hq removed video honestly and i literally just listened to it recently after so long

Bach "Opening Chorus Herr, unser Herrscher" vibes

Protagonist is so badass. upd. DS3 gave me unforgivable emotions. Especially this music

I literally got attacked by goosebumps and shivers just *typing* this into the serch bar ✨️ 💚

It astonishes me how people say this OST is not good when this is the literal MENU THEME

Bandai Namco, a god sitting on their throne, fearfully removing propagating OSTs within their radiant kingdom... All while offering none to the masses themselves, for Bandai fears Man. Selfishly and foolishly fighting against the internet, resulting in an endless cycle of sadness and degradation within their very own kingdom. Noble in appearance but failing under scrutiny. Yes, indeed... Bandai battles against the natural order, desperately clinging to their control over Humanity. To what end do they fight? To perpetuate this perversion unto eternity, where the former glory of the series is reduced to ash and embers? To that end, hasn't their radiance fallen long ago already?

لم اعد اكترث لشيئ في هاذي الحياه سوى القوه…

The dark souls series ost has such an amazing sound. A master peice in music composition.

You knew the game was going to be good w/o even playing it

🙏🤩peak moment : 1:28- 2:04

Ooooooh oooooooooooh ooooooh oh oh oh ooooooh se ooooooh oooh oh oooooooooooh

The menu theme from darksouls 3 is better than any other track in elden ring, hows that for a reality check?

aún nos queda este señores

When you cross paths into your ex’s life as a better greater person who fears none and has no enemies

this is still the best one

Hq versions striked(

Elden Ring ain't got NOTHING on this

bosses when they know they're cooked

What the bosses hear when the player arrives

When your having the most deadliest shit of your life in the morning to the point your sweating and holding the bowl for dear life

very underrated song, OMG

still hauntingly beautiful ;-; you were at my side all along...

When the opponent sees that you are laughing after a heavy attack was dealt 😂

Melhores abertura de todos os Souls

By far THE BEST Fromsoft Main Theme ever made. (Yep. including Elden Ring and DLC)

When you hear this kind of bgm you already know that you will struggle alot and you're gonna be fighting overpower foes and bosses.

like a god you're immortal but you need to prove yourself more than once to become THE GOD

Só com essa música do menu, vc já conclui que o jogo é excelente. 🤝🏽🤝🏽

いまだにこれを超えるゲーム音楽に出会えていないしこの先も出会わないだろう。

WHAT IS THAT MELODY 🗣️🔥

Like the trilogy the osts uploaded to youtube went away in order to start a new cycle

I feel like fromsoft makes games specifically for me. I never thought I'd like a game more than Skyrim.

Playing this while in the shower

Some did not kindle the flame; as a result we started the age of darkness and playlistis got removed.

Prepping for the dlc. With this masterpiece full blast.

i literally look JUST LIKE THAT irl. it is LITERALLY me

So much kino

This is what the enemies hear as we approach

for dark soul..

This is what pontiff listens when a guy with a caestus on his right arm enters the arena

Dark Souls is and always will be better than Elden Ring.

I honestly wished i was able to play this during the first few months of release instead of years later

DS3 was my first, and you enver forget your first.

You... You're no Hollow, eh? Thank goodness... I'm done for, I'm afraid..after Fromsoft OST purge i can't anymore...in a few moments i will become a Hollow...carry on for me will ya? Repopulate the comments, the views, i know you can do it. Thou who art Undead, art chosen

Pov you just fought java editon wither *easy* Bedrock edition players ok lets fight the wither Wait WH WHY DO I HEAR BOSS MUCI-

Проращая душа плачет на краю бездны 😢

Login Failed!

Dark Souls 3 theme reminds me of Elden Lied intro.

may the flames guide thee.

the beginning sounds like Darklurker from ds2

This Main Menu Theme makes me really want to play man but sadly i dont have a better PC

Beautiful

Brutal!!

It’s illegal to skip the song when you hop on 😂

best part 1:41

the absolute most amazing game Music track ever created.... surpassing FFVII's Nobuo Uematsu's Main Theme OST.
