I prefer Sci-fi background noise so Surviving Mars is my favorite. Mass Effect is ok but I find it gets a little too cinematic and bombastic at times. FTL and Into The Breach, or really anything by Ben Prunty is good too

Shenmue: Orchestral Soundtrack
Those are my favourites but I'll also put something different here too,
Commenting here because I tend to enjoy game soundtracks and want to look these up.
I liked the music in La-Mulana 1&2.
There's a lack of Ace Combat in this thread so I'm going to single out 7's but they're all pretty good.
Also Redout has a soundtrack to spike your heartrate
Spiritfarer has an excellent soundtrack, which is utterly wasted on such a mediocre game.
As an added bonus, some of the tracks on the OST are longer than you'll ever experience in game because they cut them short for some reason.
Portal 2, Minecraft, Half Life 2, Black Mesa, Team Fortress 2, Battle Block Theatre, Doom 2016, Doom Eternal,...
Orchestral my pick is Journey, with Uncharted as a close second
Actiony my pick is Scott Pilgrim vs The World The Game. Love the band.
Retro - Chrono Trigger/Spyro 1-3/Pokemon Ruby Sapphire Emerald.
Fire Emblem Fates, Telltale’s The Walking Dead, and Ocarina of Time are some of my favorite Soundtracks in my library
Hyperlight Drifter - disasterpeace
Fez - disasterpeace
Scott pilgrim vs the world - anamanaguchi
RimWorld
Lost Odyssey, Fantasian, Halo 1, Desperados 3, Arcanum, Pillars of Eternity, and Bastion are pretty good to listen to when trying to focus.
FAR: Lone Sails
What Remains of Edith Finch
Divinity II: Original Sin
Frostpunk
These are all (mostly) non-vocal, great for some background noise. Great games too!
- Bionic Commando Rearmed (by Simon Viklund)
- Crypt of the Necrodancer (VA)
- Katamari Fortissimo Damacy (VA)
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is a music focused game and god damn but it is funky. State of Mind and Condensed Milk are my favorites but the range is wide and excellent. No two songs really share the same style.
If you're a metalhead, Metal: Hellsinger won a bunch of best music awards with such offerings as Stygia and This Devastation. It's not instrumental, but it's worth a listen and if you like what you hear it's worth a play as well. Think if Doom was a rhythm game.
Generally speaking, all of the Persona soundtracks are also top tier ambient chill tracks, especially so if you've actually played the games and have an emotional connection to these songs like myself. Persona 5 is a little more generally upbeat but I like it the best, but P4 and P3 have plenty of low key jazzfunk. I don't have specifics to recommend here but know that all three of the P3/4/5 soundtracks come with my seal of approval. EDIT: I have specifics to recommend here. Persona 5 - Rivers in the Desert Persona 4 - The Poem for Everyone's Souls ( <- This one appears in all three games with minor differences and is close to what I expect you're actually looking for from this thread) Persona 3 - Living With Determination
Since you already mentioned Final Fantasy (I assume that's FF).
Halo 2
Nier:Automata
Undertale
Look at all these normie answers, and no one mentioning Minit. https://invidious.private.coffee/watch?v=zRIRyK2pHh8&listen=1
