'The Falconeer' Gets Deluxe Double Vinyl Soundtrack, Shows Off Edge of the World Expansion - Screens

The Falconeer is an ocean-world fantasy aerial combat RPG that combines classic dog fighting mechanics and acrobatic twists and turns with an awe-inspiring open environment and bestiary of fantastic enemies in land, sea, and air.

Set above The Great Ursee, a mystical world drowning in the corruption of the swollen oceans, players will take their armed aerial mounts in third person to the skies as a “Falconeer,” an airborne and agile warrior equipped with devastating ranged weaponry. Your mission as a Falconeer will be what you make it – be it the noble cause or the life of a rogue - each player experience will be unique as they explore the bleak and hauntingly beautiful world, filled with wonderous locations and warmongering rival factions vying for the mysterious secrets hidden at the Ursee's unfathomable depths.

Fans of aerial combat will be treated to a fluid and eye-catching open world experience. Majestic mounts control fluidly and freely with graceful flight, just as their bird of prey counterparts, giving players a sense of freedom and awe whilst being truly immersed in the Ursee’s simultaneously epic and hypnotic soundscape.


Label Wired Productions and independent developer Tomas Sala are pleased to share never-before-seen screenshots of upcoming Edge of the World DLC for The Falconeer on PC and Xbox One/Xbox Series X|S.

“Edge of the World” is launching alongside and as part of The Falconeer: Warrior Edition for PS5, PS4, and Nintendo Switch on August 5th, 2021.

In addition, Wired Productions and award-winning composer Benedict Nichols have unveiled The Falconeer Deluxe Double Vinyl which is available to pre-order later this month and part of a new series of limited record pressings from the label.

The Edge of the World brings a significant new expansion for The Falconeer, with three all-new campaigns for players to experience with its upcoming release on August 5th. The new DLC contains three brand new mini campaigns with nine new missions, exotic locations, two new playable classes with unique mounts, and the Imperial Shocklance weapon.

The brand-new limited print double Vinyl for The Falconeer features the works of award-winning composer Benedict Nichols, with performances by Tegen Hitchens, Mikee Goodman, and  Carolina Styles. Benedict Nichols takes listeners on a monumental journey, bringing together an eclectic soundtrack to invoke the dual nature of The Falconeer, featuring razor-edge synthesizers and organs, the sounds of Mongolian throat-singing, Balkan choirs, bagpipes, and cimbalom.

“We are weeks away from the launch of what is Tomas’s greatest work. Edge of The World brings his vision to a whole new audience for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation players, and is the result of close to a year’s worth of additional content for The Falconeer.” Said Neil Broadhead, Head of Marketing and wanna-be-real world Falconeer. “The soundtrack is just as epic as the game; it’s a masterpiece that elevates The Falconeer to new heights, and this Double Vinyl will not only be a celebrations of Tomas and his game, but also kick start a whole new limited run of LPs around Wired’s favourite titles from our catalogue of diverse and award-winning games.”

Tomas Sala, Solo developer added, "The music of the Falconeer is such a huge part of the experience, a masterwork by Benedict Nichols as unusual and fantastic a mix as one can imagine, I’m so looking forward to hearing this on Vinyl."

Currently available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X and PC (Steam), The Falconeer is set to take flight on Nintendo Switch, PS4 and PS5 on August 5, 2021.
