“It’s quite a stunning world that [the developers] created, so it gave me an opportunity to write some very beautiful music,” says Forspoken co-composer Garry Schyman. “It really was an opportunity to write something that’s not just combat and not just dark; it was an opportunity to write melodies.”
Forspoken is the latest fantasy epic from Square Enix, following a young woman named Frey who finds herself transported from modern day New York to the strange world of Athia. Composers Garry Schyman (the BioShock series, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, and more) and Bear McCreary (God of War Ragnarök, and Amazon’s Rings of Power series) took on the job together of writing music for Frey’s adventure.
But how do you create the sound of a fantasy world through music? And what is the musical voice of Frey?
