Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered enclosed "Soundtrack Greatest Hits" album is arguably worse than I-III's preceding release

After a disappointing, poorly curated historcal first - the release of a botched Tomb Raider I-III Remastered soundtrack album last year - unfortunately Limited Run Games continue with another missed opportunity of an album for the follow up Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered. Dubbed a "Soundtrack Greatest Hits" and as enclosed in Deluxe Editions of the second collection of legacy titles starring Lara Croft, the compilation features music composed by Peter Connelly from across all three titles inclusive.
 
It appears, yet again, that uninformed decisions have been made to curate the content of this album:
  • A corresponding track-list printed on the physical CD sleeve is lacking.
  • The compilation is not comprehensive in its music inclusions but instead makes room for ambient sound effects.
  • A veritable faux pas, the album also fails to include the essential title theme for The Last Revelation alongside the same for Chronicles and Angel of Darkness.
Another confusing and questionably handled publication, the audio content albeit intact and perfunctory. Full track listing to follow the jump below.
 
It is disheartening that both the Tomb Raider I-III Remastered & Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered soundtrack albums were affected by second-rate considerations. It is subsequently challenging to justify the IV-VI compilation album whilst it coexists with Connelly' superior 2019 publications, The Last Revelation, Chronicles & Angel of Darkness Remastered. Nonetheless, the album hits MoTR's Commercial Discography catalogue today.
 
Update: Unlike Tomb Raider I-III Remastered, the Limited Run Games Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered Collector's Edition that followed in 2026 included an identical content CD but repackaged as an "Official Soundtrack" with alternative artwork.
