Microsoft Studios Music announces 
the release of the Original Game Soundtrack for Stoic Studio’s upcoming Towerborne, with music by BAFTA Award-winning composer, Austin Wintory! Wintory says of the score, “After nearly a decade working on the grim, heavy Banner Saga trilogy, Stoic’s director Arnie said to me ‘Now I’d like to work on a game I could play with my kids.’ I don’t take for granted the chance to completely 180 from the direction we were heading all that time and plunge headlong into something totally new. Such was the case with Towerborne. It was clear that the goal here was something full of optimism and joy; that at its darkest, it never loses a spirit of adventure and hope. For over five years we collaborated closely and I’d like to think we managed to find that magical zone which separates “childlike” and “childish.” To cap it off by recording in the hallowed halls of a Los Angeles scoring stage (Warner Bros Eastwood stage) felt like the culmination of a life’s dream.”
