Today ArenaNet® released a new behind-the-scenes video showcasing the creation of the Guild Wars 3® original score. BAFTA Games Awards nominee Kazuma Jinnouchi, known for his work on franchises like Halo, Star Wars, Metal Gear, and Ghost in the Shell, takes the helm as the game’s lead composer. He will be joined by contributing composers Asuka Ito, whose credits include compositions for Nintendo franchises like Rhythm Heaven and Pilotwings, and longtime Guild Wars 2 composer Maclaine Diemer.
Today also marks the release of the title track ‘Guild Wars 3 Main Theme’ featured in the video. Available to stream today on most major music platforms, it is also purchasable on iTunes and Bandcamp. Click here for a list of all available locations and services.
Joining Kazuma in discussing the music are Guild Wars 3 audio lead Chase Thompson and music lead Nadia Wheaton, who delve into the inspirations and creative philosophy behind the game’s title theme and score, giving a peek behind the curtain at the orchestra recording sessions with the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra earlier this year.
