More than three hours of music
Since his work onflOw, Austin Wintory has been fairly well-known in the indie game scene. He has since provided the soundtrack forJourney,The Banner Saga,Monaco, and other small titles. All those years of creating unique music have Wintory hitting the big time; earlier this year he contributed toThe Order: 1886and today he has an even bigger credit: composer forAssassin’s Creed Syndicate.
Wintory cites 19th century chamber music as his inspiration forSyndicate‘s score. He opted for that over a large ensemble for its intimacy, saying it can “sneak up on you in ways a lumbering orchestra can’t.” It sounds fitting for a game about skulking around in the shadows and stabbing people in their necks.
