About the Project
Having composed music for The Guild 2 Renaissance, it was a great honour to come back to work on the third installment from The Guild series again.
Our main goal was to develop a soundtrack that on the one hand captures the special character of the predecessors’ soundtracks and on the other hand write music that stands out from other medieval game soundtracks. We decided to go for a melody-focussed, orchestral soundtrack heavily enriched with authentic medieval musical elements, since the game is aimed to provide a realistic depiction of the life in the middle ages.
Thus, the ambient music features several authentic melodies from that era, like the Song of the Sybil or the old flagellants’ song Nu Tret Herzuo Der Buossen Welle.
The soundtrack also features tracks like lute solos that enhance the authentic historical feeling.
The music for the playable professions is split in three intensity levels and variations, which depends on the progress and success of the player’s character in the game.
The Main Theme of The Guild 3 was recorded live with the Sofia Session Orchestra from Sofia, Bulgaria.
