If there's one thing fans and non-fans of FromSoftware agree on, it's that the studio's games contain some stellar music. Even as early as the Dark Souls series, through Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, Bloodborne all the way to Elden Ring you'd be hard pressed to find a single game without its own list of iconic tracks.
But while the music is well-recognised, the name behind much of that body of work sadly may not be. Yuka Kitamura is a longtime FromSoftware composer, whose name should be quite familiar to anyone who counts the studio's work among their favourites.
Having been a core part of the storied Japanese team for 12 years, Kitamura is sadly moving on. The legendary composer announced her departure on Twitter, confirming that she'll continue to compose music - just in a freelance capacity.
