Elden Ring's soundtrack getting the jazz treatment in live December concert

In the not entirely unlikely event you've been clamouring for a bit more jazz in your Elden Ring soundtrack, Bandai Namco has the answer. It's announced it'll be hosting a live concert this December that, for those in the US willing to pay for it, will be streamed online.

Elden Ring: A Night in the Lands Between, as the event will be known, is a collaboration between Bandai Namco, award-winning musician Kenny Garrett, and Takuya Kuroda. It promises "recognisable melodies from the game's soundtrack... performed live in Jazz format - with improvisation" by a group of musicians lead by Garrett on alto sax and Kuroda on trumpet.

"While video game soundtracks have seen variations as symphonic music and even Rock n' Roll, our 'A Night in the Lands Between' Jazz event is exploring a wonderfully different treatment of the Elden Ring soundtrack", wrote Bandai Namco's senior director of esports and live entertainment Wataru Nakasuji in a statement accompanying today's announcement.
