All of the music and soundtrack used in the Epic Battle Fantasy series are listed on this page as of 2025.
Development[]
Although Matt Roszak is the creator of Epic Battle Fantasy series, much of the games' appeal comes from the soundtrack created by Phyrnna, formerly known as HalcyonicFalconX.
From the opening themes to the final boss battle, the Epic Battle Fantasy series gives an epic selection of "battle" music and location themes.
Phyrnna usually puts out samples of the music on her accounts on Newgrounds, SoundCloud, and Youtube before the game is officially released, and a full release on Bandcamp. She also makes other soundtracks that are very similar to the ones used in the Epic Battle Fantasy series.
In Matt's earlier works (Brawl Royale, The Kitten Game, Epic Battle Fantasy) the soundtrack was not yet made by Phyrnna. Instead, Matt used music from various video games and animé series. Any themes used in this way were included in the games' respective credits pages. Matt's newest game, Hidden Cats & Dogs would instead feature stock/royalty-free music due to Phyrnna's hiatus.
Matt has also used music composed by Forger343 for some of his games in the Epic Battle Fantasy Collection.

Notes[]
- The intro riff of du5k M3lgb VkgN Wsxbgi is the same as Fear of the Dark by Iron Maiden.
- The hidden reference in du5k M3lgb VkgN Wsxbgi has been found out, as the bridge with the seemingly randomly-pitched beep was hiding a code. Two people on the Youtube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dASVE8VAGE) -- FranFranBurger, tinywhitecat-- have spent about 3 and a half years solving said puzzle, which was then summarized by another commenter, Huzzah. The shortened explanation is that the song not only can be decoded in base-64 into "uNd3r mY 5k1n", but that can be further decoded into a Youtube video ID for Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up, effectively being a Rick Roll.
- The Walking Bones was originally released under the EBF-like concept album Verion.
- A Breeze from Home (Vocal version) has vocals and arrangement done by Troisnyx.
Classic Tracks[]
In addition to its original music, EBF5 brings back several tracks from previous EBF games (sans 1 as at the time, it didn't have an original soundtrack). There are nine boomboxes scattered around the overworld; activating them will change the music within the screen and its adjacent screens (this is only for the paid version since 1.5, the free version will only play a default track from EBF5, while on the Mobile version, a mixture of default tracks and Data Bunker Simulation Fight music is played due to storage limitations), while the Data Bunker Simulation Fights will also play tracks during combat.
