The two-disc soundtrack album composed by Yann van der Cruyssen, comprised of both extradiegetic and intradiegetic music is hosted on Steam. A 29-track selection is streaming on Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music Unlimited.

From the Nintendo product page:
Stray is a third-person cat adventure game set amidst the detailed, neon-lit alleys of a decaying cybercity and the murky environments of its seedy underbelly. Roam surroundings high and low, defend against unforeseen threats and solve the mysteries of this unwelcoming place inhabited by curious droids and dangerous creatures.

See the world through the eyes of a cat and interact with the environment in playful ways. Be stealthy, nimble, silly, and sometimes as annoying as possible with the strange inhabitants of this mysterious world.
