Royalty free video game music for menus, levels, trailers, and streams

A good loop keeps players in the flow. This collection of video game music focuses on clear themes, steady grooves, and edit points that make timing easy. Use it for menus, maps, calm exploration, action levels, boss alerts, retro mini games, and launch trailers where the cue should guide the feel, not steal it.

You will find chiptune sparks, synth adventure beds, light orchestral pulses, and modern electronic cues. For long sessions, pick an instrumental background that loops cleanly. For openings, choose a short theme that lands on a button ending. Try “High Tech Time” for title screens, “Wind Of Glory” for arcade vibes, and “Tense Chase” when the tension rises. Featured composers: Ionics Music, Jon Wright, Eitan Epstein Music.

Your royalty free download includes MP3, WAV, and a license PDF for commercial use. Publishing the same build or trailer on YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok, enable the Hide Content ID filter to help prevent flags and keep uploads smooth. If you need no copyright game music for YouTube specifically, that toggle is the safe route. Stock music style beds sit next to fuller song cuts, which makes it simple to choose a quiet background or a lead theme.

FAQ – Video Game Music

How long should a background music loop be for a level?
Two to three minutes with a calm middle section works well. Build in gentle variation every 16 or 32 bars to avoid fatigue. Return to the original ending when the level completes.

What formats work best with Unity and Unreal?
WAV is ideal during production and for mastering. Convert to OGG at 160–192 kbps for builds when you need smaller files. Keep the original WAVs for future updates.

How loud should music sit against SFX and dialogue?
Aim for music 6 to 9 dB under voice and a little under key effects. Tame bright highs and leave tiny gaps before callouts, quest text, and achievement pops.

Do I use one theme across the whole game or per area?
A main theme helps brand the game. Create light, neutral, and high energy variations for menus, exploration, and combat. Reuse the motif with new instrumentation to keep it fresh.

What do I pick for trailers versus in game background?
Trailers need clear builds and button endings for cuts. In game beds should loop without hard drops and leave space for footsteps, UI clicks, and VO.

Can I stream or post gameplay without takedowns?
