We chat with legendary video game composer Garry Schyman about his work on Square Enix's Forspoken, the upcoming game for which he co-composed music with Bear McCreary:
Forspoken, the next game to be published by industry juggernaut Square Enix, is nearing release. Developed by Luminous Productions, this action RPG tells the story of Frey, a young New Yorker who is transported to a different, and dangerous, land. Forspoken made waves when it was first announced in 2021 thanks in part to its exciting-looking player skills, promise of open-world gameplay, and unique enemy designs.
Then, of course, [I'm drawn to something] if it's inspiring. Some projects are less inspiring than others, and some are super inspiring; [they're] almost a huge challenge, and a little scary. BioShock was that. It was kind of intimidating, although I did not anticipate BioShock being a huge success. No one had ever heard of BioShock. It wasn't like I was doing God of War or some project that has all these high expectations.
Garry Schyman: They wanted it to be more tonal. I had produced some very intense combat, and they wanted it more tonal, and more fantasy. I immediately got that, but I wanted to keep something unique about it, so I made it "edgy tonal". Let's put it that way. You'll hear some of the cues, and they're very tonal. There were some nice opportunities to write some beautiful music for this game, which is always wonderful.
This is a nerdy question, but when you go to those kinds of instruments, do you record the orchestra first and then find soloists to work with separately?
