Here’s your first taste of the PlayStation 5 menu music for two first-party launch titles: Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Demon’s Souls. This audio was uploaded to Sony’s servers recently as it prepares for the exclusives to release next month, and was shared on YouTube. From what we understand, this audio will work similarly to on the PlayStation 4, where some titles had custom music when you scroll down for more information on the dashboard.
With regards to Insomniac Games’ spin-off, we get a mixture of orchestral music with a ripping hip-hop beat, which fits Miles Morales perfectly. Then the Demon’s Souls audio is a remix of the famous Maiden in Black song, which is a bit faster and more filled out. You can compare to the original version through here. What do you think of these new soundtracks? Bob your head in the comments section below.

I’m really not a fan of that Miles Morales music. The hip hop beat feels like a second thought, like they created MIDI RuneScape music and then went back and added a beat. Demon’s Souls sounds great though, didn’t expect anything less.
@nessisonett Should've got an actual hip-hop producer on this, imagine beats from Madlib, Demjointz or Metro Boomin.
I am hoping for better dynamic backgrounds this generation. I feel like it could be a lot better than it is now!
Demon's souls music is pretty nice
Edit: The original demon's souls music is weird, there's lul in the music, I don't like it.
That Maiden in Black rearrangement is really good, but I kind of miss the quiet moments found in the OG track.
@DonJorginho I do love Madlib but Miles is young enough that they’d be going for a trap beat rather than a jazzier or boom bap style. It just sounds like what a bunch of white dudes think hip hop sounds like without actually listening to any, as if they stuck some beats on it and thought, “yeah, that sounds like what the kids these days are into”.
@nessisonett Imagine Metro Boomin then, a more trap orientated producer.
But yeah, this feels like "how do you do fellow kids" moment.
If this is the music that plays when you scroll down for more info on the XMB, I'll probably never hear it ever again.
@DonJorginho Of course, he’s the guy that produced Savage Mode II, I knew I heard the name somewhere. Yeah, that album’s beats are a million times better than everything I’ve heard out of Miles Morales, because they have impact. The music of Miles Morales has all the impact of a toddler slapping a drum kit with their bare hands. The sad thing is that the trailer song, which was Jaden Smith & Kid Cudi, is a much, much better fit than the gameplay music. Then again, I lowkey like Cudi’s Speedin Bullet 2 Heaven so I really can’t judge.
I find it a bit annoying on the PS4 when I scroll down and then sometimes the music is to loud and the music is erm silly Hopefully you can mute the lot in the settings or something like that.
Oof, that Miles Morales tune... yea, I don't like it.
give me Demon Soulssss and PS5 nowww pleaseeee... cant wait anymore )
That just increased my hype for these two games. This is one of the best launch line-ups ever (well launch line-ups are usually poor)
Guess i missed it as they are taken down

I don't figure you guys have downloaded it, right? Because it's privated now.
@Immortal_Barnet I agree; it's the best since PS1. I don't know why this launch lineup isn't more touted.
@Carl-G I never scroll down.
So i just won demon souls for free from burger king. Now im trying to get one of the ps5 hope i win.
@Gravity_Bear
Do you know if you get the digital ps4 version of the game if it lets you get the spiderman remaster as well or is that only for ps5 version of ultimate? Cause i didnt see a ultimate version of the ps4 version.
Would be cool if ps4 had miles morales and vanilla spiderman and it let you upgrade to ps5 miles morales and the remaster spiderman for ps5. But then again i heard only the ps4 miles morales save can transfer to ps5 version but save isnt compatible for OG to remaster.
@BansheeNorn The Ultimate version for PS5 is the only version with Spider-man Remastered, but I remember somewhere saying that there would be an upgrade option from standard to Ultimate. Not sure how much the Ultimate upgrade will cost.
Miles Morales standard edition costs the same on both PS4 and PS5 and both will get you a copy for both PS5 and PS4 (two copies) and the Ultimate is the same in regards to Miles Morales.
The trophy list is different for Spider-man Remastered, so that might be the reason why they don't have cross-save. 🙁
Three weeks to go until it's released! I'm looking forward to playing it, especially with the new controller.
@Gravity_Bear
So i saw a news article from another site that explained it to me and they said if you get the ps4 miles morales you will have an option to buy spiderman remastered ps4 version via $20 upgrade. And spiderman remastered will not be sold as a stand alone game. Seems like how activision sold modern warfare remastered at the beginning together with cod i cant remember which version. But later i know it was given out as a ps plus game standalone so i know its probably a timed exclusive for sony to sell it as a bundle.
@BansheeNorn Good to know. That upgrade is for upgrading to the Ultimate Edition, I'm guessing that's what you meant.
From: https://blog.playstation.com/2020/09/30/marvels-spider-man-remastered-detailed/
"The PS4 version of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales offers a free upgrade path to PS5 Standard Edition. And if you purchase or upgrade to the PS5 Standard Edition, you can take advantage of a paid-upgrade offer from the in-game menu to download Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered**."
I think Activision was having trouble selling the game Modern Warfare was bundled, so they attached Modern Warfare to it and it sold like hotcakes I believe.
