Asobo Studios and Focus Entertainment are celebrating A Plague Tale: Requiem and the five Game Awards nominations. The team recorded a recent symphony performance of the game’s incredible soundtrack by Olivier Deriviere. Deriviere’s score is one of the game’s five nominations.
The game’s five nominations at The Game Awards 2022 include:
- Game of the Year recognizing a game that delivers the absolute best experience across all creative and technical fields
- Best Action/Adventure for the best action/adventure game, combining combat with traversal and puzzle solving
- Best Narrative for outstanding storytelling and narrative development in a game
- Best Score and Music (Olivier Derivière) for outstanding music, inclusive of score, original song, and/or licensed soundtrack
- Best Performance (Charlotte McBurney – Amicia) awarded to an individual for voice-over acting, motion, and/or performance capture
Requiem is an intensely emotional journey powerfully enriched by Olivier Derivière’s poignant compositions. Derivière is a passionate video game composer and international star in the field, winner of multiple awards, and a nominee at the 2017 BAFTAs. The outstanding performers who collaborated with Derivière on the score include Eric-Maria Couturier – a distinguished member of the Ensemble intercontemporain – and the two-time Grammy Award-winning Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir, who lend spellbinding vocals to the compositions.
The soundtrack will also be available in a special vinyl edition available for pre-order. It is being published by Black Screen Records and will be shipping in December. The album features a pair of LPs pressed into gold marble-colored vinyl. All of this is encased in a gatefold jacket. Pre-orders are being accepted here.
Requiem is available now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, PC, and in Cloud Version on Nintendo Switch. Players can grab the game on Steam with its discount of 20% right now as part of the Autumn Sale.
