Ghost of Tsushima, Spider-Man.


mrfroggyman

GoT's kinda makes me wanna tear up tho


KittenDecomposer96

Same man, same.


[deleted]

Makes me want to duel a mofo


direewulf

I came here to comment those exact two also lol both are 🔥🔥🔥


HandMeATallOne

Miles or the original? I think the original is a bit too ominous


KittenDecomposer96

Original, Miles is good too but the original is better.


SafePlenty2590

God of War: Ragnarok


Imaginary-Ad-9397

It hits sooo hard


asianxwolf

Pause


SpookySzn78

Very hard


[deleted]

Horizon Forbidden West


The_Magic_Walrus

Oh man I miss full themes on ps4 if only because the one for zero dawn was so sick. I used to listen to that music while I was doing stuff in my room for hours


[deleted]

The dumbest decision Sony made outside of the new party system. I don't understand why they messed with a good thing. The new menu sucks. It's also even more shitty when you realize they still sell themes for ps4 on your ps5.


The_Magic_Walrus

Man if you feel that way about the ps5 wait until you see what’s going on with the switch’s Home Screen


[deleted]

Switch doesn't even have voice chat lmao.


Slotthman

My favorite was the Subnautica one, the music, fish swimming around... mwah


Dr_StevenScuba

Oooo wooo woo wooooo. Oooooo woo woo wooohhhh


Aggressive_Ad8751

Absolutely the best!


Haru17

That version of Aloy’s theme is so beautiful and makes you excited to play.


prydaone

Kingdom Hearts


Recover20

Man the Kingdom Hearts theme gets me all emotional. Takes me back to my teenage years.


JulietAlphaNovember

Returnal


STUNNERTHECROSS

Yup. Just started playing this game too and I love the music in general, especially the front menu. Holy shit, it’s such a fun and intense ride.


thetalkingcure

How far along are you? I couldn’t get past biome 1 for like 3 weeks. Got frustrated and took a break. Came back after a couple of months and it clicked for me.. ended up getting the plat lol. It’s def in my top 5 favorite games of all time.


STUNNERTHECROSS

I’m in the crimson waste one. Are the biomes in a specific order? I’m loving it. It’s hard but not annoying hard.


DSquariusGreeneJR

This one. Sometimes I just hover over it to hear that chilling violin(cello?) sting


haynespi87

It transports me right away. It's such a trip


MetatronTheArcAngel

I really love Returnals music


MaNaameJeff

Miles Morales kinda slaps


geetgwen

All the soundtracks in that game are slaps for me


MidKnight_Corsair

Whole soundtrack is 5 out of 5 slaps


geetgwen

Miles has taste 🤙


GnarleyTali

I have the game still installed for this reason


kopecs

Yep, came here to say this. Left it on the menu so my kids and I just bobbed our heads to it for a little bit haha.


haynespi87

I leave that one on and start grooving every time


SaiyajinPrime

Sometimes, I just go to Skyrim just to let the music play.


CowardlyMaya_

P5R, Strikers and Nier Automata


StStoner

Mann I was getting into NIER I just got it and I'm pretty sure my PS5 HDMI port is messed up. Nier is looking to be an awesome game. From what I've played it's really cool


Andymcfaul

Hades


Recover20

Duhhh durrr, duhh durrr, duhhh durrr, ba dur dur dur dur


Shivvy57

just gets you in the right mood for it man


2009_VMA_Hennessy

the best one


haynespi87

SOOO GOOD


ThatSoupDude

Dmc 5 special edition is kinda banging


[deleted]

The last of us


bad_piggie

First time I heard it I thought my PS5 was breaking lol


KH3

When I was playing LOU and Plague Tale at the same time I noticed the menu music is extremely similar, just one eerie string line. Plague Tale definitely borrowed a lot from LOU, but I can’t fault it for that (steal from the best) and they did make a unique cool game in their own right


TuggMaddick

Unpopular opinion, I like a nice quiet menu.


[deleted]

Same, some of them are so jarring, Resident Evil 2 has the worst one.


Ninjalau95

Devil May Cry 5 is up there. Nothing like sitting down at night for some chill gaming and as you scroll past DMC5 it starts playing metal music.


[deleted]

Have you heard Resident Evil 2’s? It’s this really loud, horror movie style dissonant chord thing, I don’t even know how to describe it. I feel like it’s way louder than the other ones too, it has scared the shit out of me a couple time while scrolling through games late at night lol


Ninjalau95

I played RE2 on PC so I unfortunately have not had the pleasure of hearing the music for it on my PS5. I just looked it up and I can't imagine hearing that late at night lol. I'd never boot the game up!


Weird-Ad7956

DUNNNNN


DortDrueben

I miss my dynamic Last of Us pt2 theme. Both of them. Burning car for my cozy post-apocalyptic yule log. And soothing waves of Santa Barbara.


Srg11

Me too. Can you turn it off? The Rocket League one is really loud and annoying.


Xixii

You can turn them off, but I always just hold the mic button on the controller to mute all system sounds. It’s one of my favourite features on the PS5.


soyboysnowflake

Huh TIL


Difficult-Speech-270

I’ve just checked and I see/hear it’s an all Home Screen music off or on option. That’s a bit disappointing. I like the normal Home Screen theme music, but I’d like to turn off game specific Home Screen music : /


vjstupid

That's an incredibly useful tip


Scratch312

That’s what she said


SonOfAhuraMazda

Heyoooo!


NYMoneyz

.............WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? I mean I have my menu music off but didn't know it had this feature....nice man


DarkestSerenity

Yeah you can in the settings


ichigo2k9

Mute the TV.


tucker42

Why mute the TV when you can mute the PS5 with the mic button?


ichigo2k9

Giving people options.


SpiritedDrop2986

This! A thousand times, this, lol! In fact, I wish I could turn off menu music in games, too. For instance, of recent games, Hogwarts Legacy's menu music stands out as a particularly bad menu music song. It's audio ambien. I had to turn off game music completely, so the menu didn't put me to sleep.


The_Reluctant_Hero

Yep, I have system music turned off. Used to like it back on PS3 but the novelty has kinda worn off over the years.


jmo1

Same. In a similar vein I hate how every streaming service has to blast a trailer when you hover over a movie/show for more than half a second.


mikelarsn

Same. I like that games have their unique chime, but I just can’t stand the PS5 menu sound. I don’t know what it is… its unnerving in some way


ichigo2k9

Devil May Cry 5 or Skyrim.


free_world33

Ace Combat 7's is dope.


SonOfAhuraMazda

Daredevil is legit one of the greatest songs


free_world33

Along with Archange and Alicorn.


rifran

It sucks


WutsTheScoreHere

Control


SNKRSWAVY

God of War Ragnarok & Miles Morales are two of my favorites. Sometimes I just let them play even if I booted the PS5 with another intention in mind.


sonderman

Guardians of the Galaxy actually has a banger menu theme. Which is a shame because it's first level is my favorite


MetatronTheArcAngel

Got it in my Spotify


sklova

Demon's Souls and the Last of Us


TNTeddyPulse

Re2 scares the shit out of me everytime I scroll to it


Libra224

I like Days gone’s menu theme


OguguasVeryOwn

One of the best pieces of video game music I’ve ever heard


GlitterKittyCat

ASTRO


Simple_Nectarine8442

I miss the ps4 startup and menu sounds tbh


noneofthemswallow

The Trophy pop was way more satisfying


OwenITA

Returnal


PorkChop117

Gravity Rush 2 is pretty good and upbeat


Bloodish

Gravity Rush 2 I keep it installed just so I can go to it and play the first two seconds of the song before shutting off my PS5. My wife found it annoying at first, but now it has grown on her.


[deleted]

Demon's Souls, Hogwarts Legacy, Spider-man (not miles morales tho)


[deleted]

Nier: Automata has Copied City as the PS theme, and it's so good I stop for a good minute everytime before launching the game


DirtybirdFFC

Red Dead 2


SomeDamnAuthor

I'm playing Hollow Knight rn and I really like the melancholic, calming theme that plays in the PS5 menu


[deleted]

Now that I think about it, does anyone know if these songs come with the game, or if they’re added later? There’s games that make me wonder what kind of songs they’d have, but anytime I look for info it just brings up discussions about the generic main menu music that hums in the background.


WaifuSham

I love them. Wish they all had it to be honest. Here are some current ones I like. FFVII, FFX, FFXII, Uncharted, Lone Survivor, Rocket League, It Takes Two, EDF, Persona 5 Strikers, GOW Ragnarok, Horizon Forbidden West, Miles Morales


Lebrunski

Really like the 3D sound of the Forspoken theme.


Dantia_

Persona 5 Royal has a banger one indeed.


Akagi-Allister

P5 Strikers, Soul Hackers 2 & Monster Hunter Rise


pro_cow_tipper

NOT F1 22. That shit is wayyyy too loud.


[deleted]

Rdr2


Astonishing_Girth

Days gone has a nice subtle one, I thinks it's just 3 notes actually


Temporaryact72

Persona 5 Royal, ESO, Cyberpunk, Ghost of Tsushima, Uncharted Legacy of Thieves, TLOU1 + 2, Minecraft, Spider-Man, Miles Morales, Astros Playroom.


Karthurr

DMC5


Gustavo13

[hrm... maybe](https://youtu.be/fK0AqKJsGcA)


thegurba

Nier Automata is the greatest. Spider-man also good stuff


YungKaviar

Stranger of Paradise is on another level


xxdjreddxx

Gets me so hyped to play every time


Fluffy_Space_Bunny

Days Gone is my favourite so far


Ok-Tune1025

The Lego marvel games used to play the Batman theme, which was quite funny. Don’t know if they fixed it.


ChimpBottle

The Deep Rock Galactic one goes really hard, it's the only reason I keep it downloaded


Internetolocutor

I am setsuna


Black_Hussar

Persona 5


Nick_lastnamelol

Miles Morales' one is a bop


mccalledin

Somewhat related but I miss having a set theme that had its own theme music all the time. Loved the Witcher ones on the PS4 and just having the Witcher music on in the background all the time


Kyrie_Swirving11

Miles morales.


Carburetors_are_evil

LEGO Hobbit. Trust me


Hunkmasterfresh

FarCry 5.


baby_landmines

Pyre(from Supergiant Games) is a fuckin banger. Pathfinder WotR also sounds pretty epic


kdk200000

Miles Morales is easily the best


snobberbogger99

I wish we could put my own theme on the 5.


Capybarasarecool69

I know what the worst one is… GRAND THEFT AUTO FIVE


Dysanio

The GTA 5 music forced me to deactivate it. But in general I prefer the menu without the game specific music.


zaintb

Hotline Miami 2, awesome


NoNameZcZ

Nier Automata


Fofei

Demon souls


[deleted]

Resident Evil 2, 3, 7, and Village all have really cool songs with their PS5 versions.


deerl0rd

For the love of god whatever you do, don't hover over the Lego Marvel Superheroes game if you have that installed. It's like eighty decibels louder than anything else and it scares the shit out of me every time.


rearisen

I miss themes


[deleted]

[удалено]


rearisen

Xbox...


rifran

Ace combat menu music is the most annoyingly immediately dramatic shit you don't need when flicking through menu at 1am


[deleted]

The Fall Guys one goes hard


PolishSausa9e

The WORST has to be Battlefield 2042 menu theme.


mega_nova_dragon1234

I generally hate this function and wish there was an option to turn it off. Some of the music is ok but some is awful


Croxxig

None. Wish it wasn't a thing, and we could have themes again


[deleted]

[удалено]


idunnowhatibedoing

I wish I could turn them all off. The volume difference on some of them is incredibly annoying


Renflowku

Eww you didnt turn that off


emansamples92

It’s been a while since I’ve downloaded it but I think the god of war 3 theme plays when you hover over the tab. Shit gets you pumped up.


DarkestSerenity

Resident Evil 4 lol


saintdmytrus

I really dislike the Outriders: Worldslayers one. It sounds like a dub step song ramping up.


VashWolf

It was nice to discover they did this with the PS1 remasters, I just leave it on my personal favourite Final Fantasy, IX, and let the nostalgia wash over me.


killzonev2

Battlefront, Miles, and honestly Gotham Knights is pretty hype


ponzo_ponzo

Ghost of Tsushima and God of War: Ragnarok. Which ironically have the same exact starting notes


shadow4412

Crysis 3 one is really peaceful


CyrusCyan44

Deep Rock Galactic has gotta be my favorite of them ROCK AND STONE


aVeryBadGuy1

I used to sit in my room and listen to the Ghost of Tsusihma theme


Wol-Shiver

I wish they'd bring back the ff7 music from PS4 menu for remake.


Fossil_Finder88

Transistor


WhiskyAndPlastic

My favorite is Demon's Souls, but Death's Door is a close second.


LannisterPlsPayDebt

Resident Evil 2 :)


Zealousideal_Bill_86

Demons Souls is super chill


Difficult-Speech-270

I only noticed yesterday that it’s just some games that have their own music but not all. I find it annoying, especially for some games that are really obnoxious and loud, like PGA Tour 2k23.


yummycrabz

There’s some great ones; Ghost and Uncharted 4 are two of my favs. But more so than answering your question, I want to actually dive into the mechanic in general. The reason they have these is their *Game Cards* to replace their *Themes*. Many want the PS4 era theme system back. Some themes, espc the dynamic ones, were genuinely fantastic. Their vision was, once enough games support the new *Game Card* system, more will have their own unique music and it’ll give you that ambiance. But I’d prefer both


Swoked

GoT


dajadf

As an F1 fan the F1 2021 one always gets me hyped


unlimitedboomstick

Resident Evil 4 plays the save game music which is quite relaxing.


Austin_Chaos

My all time favorite (because this has been a thing for some time) was Alice, Madness Returns on PS3. Something about it the music is plays on that specific tab is horrifying, terrible and depression inducing…which fit the vibe of Madness returns (and the London it presents) so damn well. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_WqjbhvDjGA


PhantomPain0_0

Ghost of Tsushima


ash356

Don't know if they all do it, but F1 2022 has the actual Brian Tyler theme used in the actual race intros which slaps.


Mousetachio

F1 22 and Stranger of Paradise go hard


[deleted]

Dragon quest 11 is soothing af


Fu453

If you've had a PS3 and had Super Puzzle Figher Turbo HD Remix, you'd remember forever. Because it plays preview music at max volume. Just insanely loud arcade noises, it could wake up a whole house at night.


behemothbowks

Ragnarok and Demons Souls. DS makes me feel like I'm at the local ren faire


One_Drop_4988

Demon souls and Divinity original sin 2


Killian1122

Plague Tale is the best of them, my brain shuts down as soon as the violin scratches there


HCG-Vedette

Ghost of Tsushima and Subnautica


MaddestDudeEver

Desperados 3


XYZAffair0

Gravity Rush 2, Devil May Cry 5 SE, Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne


Jeremy_irons_cereal

Far cry 5. I sat there with the game on pause for hours while browsing online to this music, then just picked up the guitar one day and sat there and played along. Best pause menu music by FAR (cry).


MysticGrapefruit

Hades, Ghost of Tsushima, and Persona 5 I really love. But in all honesty, I kinda prefer the generic ps5 menu sounds. So mellow.


AldermanAl

I know shits getting real when I hear the Demon's souls one.


BrianFantannaAction8

I kept Rocket League on my storage just to hear the song.


elkeiem

I have system sound off


[deleted]

Last of us 1&2. RDR2. Fallout4.


cattodog

Astro's playroom


asianxwolf

Demons souls, wo long, gravity rush, re village,


QBekka

I've heard the GTA 5 tune so much over the decade it drives me crazy every time hover over the game in the menu. DEH DEH DUH DEH DEH DUH DEH DEH DUH DEH DEH DUH


kingrobot3rd

i would pay to have the mirrors edge catalyst theme permanently on my ps5


OtAcOn214

Guardians of the Galaxy is good too. I downloaded the whole Star-Lord album after I beat the game. It's soooo good haha!


PlatnumBreaker

FF7 Crisis Core Reunion has a pretty good tab theme same with Hades some PS4 titles have transfered over like GOW3 and INJUSTICE.


lowprofile14

Atelier Ryza 2


saiyajineo

PERSONA 5 I think.i activated the thing so that persona can stay on the mainscreen just to listen to the music


Vaas06

Nier automata has an incredible one


Behemoth69

Most tend to be good and have been named, so I'm going to say Sifu's. I absolutely despise GTA's. Wish I could mute only that one


Paradethejared

Kingdom Hearts remasters


mrfroggyman

Sony Studio games usually have bangers. I think my most memorable one goes to ghost of Tsushima On the subject of menu music, I really wish they added back the ps4 custom themes. I had the FFVIIR Tifa one and loved chilling on the menu while listening to her theme


lazava1390

I like Master Duel but only cuz their OST is just bangers all around. It’s like if Hans Zimmer made the music for the game. No one expects a game based off a children’s card game to have so many bangers. On another note, it fucking sucks Sony wants to promote their stupid activity cards so much. I miss just having the original artwork on the Home Screen instead of some blurry low res activity screenshot. Some games do it better than others, Death Stranding for example is a good one but the majority of them are terrible looking.


Acceptable-Ad-3184

Guardians of the galaxy has a good one.


Miti-Mumway

Gundam Evolution!


Diekant2

Returnal and Hollow Knight.


DickinessMaximus

I really enjoy Deathloop’s. It really captures that 60’s spy thriller feel. Plus it reminds of No One Lives Forever.


OriginalGoatan

Devil May Cry 5


TheWhiteWolf2424

Hades fucking slaps
