Black Screen Records, Mediatonic and The Irregular Corporation are celebrating Murder By Numbers' first anniversary with a beautiful vinyl release of Masakazu Sugimori's catchy upbeat soundtrack to Mediatonic’s investigative puzzle game / visual novel.

The full soundtrack will be available on limited edition opaque purple & yellow vinyl and comes in a beautiful gatefold sleeve with art by the Mediatonic team, character design by the incomparable Hato Moa - creator of Hatoful Boyfriend - and with additional graphic design by Dane Baudoin and includes a free Bandcamp Code for the digital soundtrack and a cute little SCOUT enamel pin. 

"When I say that I’m a major Japanese game music nerd, I mean it. Like, really mean it. And yet, when I found out that Sugimori-san had agreed to compose the soundtrack for Murder by Numbers, alongside the excitement and disbelief was this deep sinking feeling in my stomach. How were we going to make a game that could possibly match the quality of his work?!

Sure enough, Sugimori-san delivered a soundtrack that ranks among his best, and it set a high bar for the whole team to aspire towards. I’m so thrilled that we can now offer the soundtrack on a wider release, and also in this glorious vinyl form. Thank you to everyone who has supported us this far - and I hope that, as you listen to the songs, it brings back warm memories of the time you spent with Honor and SCOUT." - Ed Fear

"I am incredibly happy that a vinyl record of the "Murder by Numbers" soundtrack has been made! In Japan, where I live, even if a game music soundtrack is produced, it is exceedingly rare for it to be a vinyl record, and as such I was surprised when I heard this would happen. I am confident that music and games can be enjoyed across ethnicities, nationalities, ages, and genders. Please enjoy Scout and Honor's adventures, woven together by the power of the game’s music!" - Masakazu Sugimori
