Soundtracks for games have caught on quite a bit. I remember going out and purchasing Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2 on the launch day because it included the soundtrack for all four Command and Conquer games (at the time). If you are inclined to get any tracks for Modern Warfare 3, there’s another great reason to get it. The proceeds are going to go to The Call of Duty Endowment.
ctivision Publishing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision Blizzard, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) and celebrated composer Brian Tyler announced today that they will donate all proceeds from the Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 3 soundtrack to The Call of Duty Endowment, a non-profit, public benefit corporation that seeks to help returning soldiers transition back to civilian life, find work and establish careers.
“We couldn’t be happier to have Brian Tyler onboard for Modern Warfare® 3,” said Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision Publishing, Inc. “If you’re an action fan you certainly know his work. It’s a pleasure to partner with Brian Tyler and Call of Duty® fans around the world to assist real-world soldiers in need.”
Each track is only 99 cents, and it goes to a good cause. Not to mention someone with the caliber of Brian Tyler doing the soundtrack. Check out the tracks at iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody, and other retailers to see which ones you are interested in getting.
