In a video released by NCSoft today, Guild Wars 2 composer Maclaine Diemer gives us a listen of the new soundtrack for the game’s Living World Season Two.
Performed and recorded by a live orchestra in Germany, the new music will soundtrack players’ adventures as they play through the next chapter of the Guild Wars 2 story.
“I think what we recorded matches the aesthetic already set in Guild Wars 2, and I also think it stands on its own as something unique and fresh,” says the game’s composer Maclaine Diemer. “I think it really succeeds in elevating Guild Wars 2. When you hear live music when you’re playing, you feel it on a much more visceral level.”
Guild Wars 2’s Living World Season Two commences today, dealing with the aftermath of main villain Scarlet Briar’s dastardly attack on the city of Lion’s Arch.
