Get immersed in Gacene with a behind the scenes look at the soundtrack of GreedFall II

GreedFall II: The Dying World, is almost here in early access. While you wait, it’d do you some good to listen to the soundtrack, at least in a behind the scenes way. In the newest video, we get to see the process behind crafting a different soundtrack, with the world moving from Teer Fradee into the Old Continent. This sit down with Olivier Derivière is quite enlightening, and we can’t wait to hear the soundtrack in full as we play the game.

Lesquin, France, 20 September 2024 – NACON and studio Spiders are pleased to present the creative process behind the soundtrack for the narrative RPG GreedFall II: The Dying World, crafted by renowned composer Olivier Derivière in a new Deep Dive video. Originally responsible for the music in the first game, as well as that of A Plague Tale: Innocence and Dying Light 2, the composer collaborated with the Slovak National Symphony Orchestra to record the soundtrack for GreedFall II.  The game will be released in early access on Steam on 24 September, 2024.

While the first GreedFall focused on the discovery of the world of Teer Fradee, exploring more natural sounds, including a strong drum presence, Olivier Derivière had the soundscape evolve to match the change in context and environment experienced by players. In the cities of  Gacane, the Old continent, players are immersed in very different cultures, where Venetian art for example, which is characteristic of the Baroque period, has a strong presence. These elements have influenced the music, which is highly orchestral and in which the guitar plays a central role.

In addition, GreedFall II features adaptive music, which changes according to players’ actions, whether in combat or based on decisions made, which have a real impact on the unfolding of the story and quests. GreedFall II‘s soundtrack takes advantage of the early access format, as players’ feedback may be taken into account to evolve certain aspects of the music.

GreedFall II: The Dying World is a narrative RPG which starts three years before the events of the first game. This time, you play as a native of Teer Fradee, uprooted by force from your island and taken to the continent of Gacane, the homeland of the colonists. In this old world in a constant state of conflict, and ravaged by the Malichor plague and the political scheming of various factions, you must regain your freedom and forge your own destiny. Tackle each challenge you face through diplomacy, cunning or your combat skills, and alongside your new-found allies, put an end to the dark schemes that threaten the continent and your island.

GreedFall II: The Dying World will be released for early access on 24 September on PC (Steam), and will be available on PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2025.
