We always talk about games with the best graphics but what about audio/sound design? What are some games that have excellent audio/sound design? One I can think of is Alien: Isolation.

Just about every game has had an orchestral performance at this point. But if music is included in audio/sound design there are too many games to list.Zelda has been arranged for full orchestral performances independent of the game, so that makes a pretty strong case. I think Civ also has some arrangements like that as well.
Man, that game was awesome!Just about every game has had an orchestral performance at this point. But if music is included in audio/sound design there are too many games to list.
I submit:
Thief: The Dark Project w/ Aureal 3D
The first thief game for sure
The 3D headphone mode in Fornite is pretty sweet as well. 100% worth turning on.Fortnite with 7.2 surround sound is actually pretty freaking cool when there is a lot of action in place. Better than most movies.

Also Matt Nava's other games (Abzu and the Pathless)Journey
Abit of a Golden age of 3D audio.I recently re-played Dark Project and Metal Age (probably first time since they were originally released), and good God the sound design is fantastic. They beat the pants off most "stealth" game spacial sound... and are over 25 years old.
I would say Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is the first game I think of when it comes to great audio design.
OP used the word best, which is subjective, UT then me turned graphics whichbis a less objective in my mind. Not so much about style, but objectively life-like.hunt showdown
I noticed any games utilizing Atmos tend to sound pretty amazing, at least compared to the regular 5.1 mix. I'm not even using height channels but there seems to be some voodoo going on with the 3d sound mixing.
