  • Introduction to Video Content
  • Ashfall is a highly anticipated game with a post-apocalyptic theme, as revealed in the official behind-the-scenes trailer. The game, developed by NetEase Connect, is a cross-platform post-apocalyptic MMORPG for PC and mobile. Ever since its announcement at TGS last year, Ashfall has captured the attention of players worldwide.
    In this trailer, Steve Massaro and Hans Zimmer discuss their involvement in the development of Ashfall's soundtrack. They were approached about a year and a half ago with concepts of futuristic, post-apocalyptic settings, which fascinated them as gamers. They saw an opportunity to fuse the elements of futurism and a post-apocalyptic environment into a cool and cinematic gaming experience.
    To achieve this, the soundtrack of Ashfall combines orchestral and synth elements. The orchestra serves as a through-line throughout the game, enhancing the cinematic feel, while the synth adds versatility and can mimic various instruments. The goal is to bridge the gap between the orchestra and the synth, creating a unique world for each location in the game.
    The team also incorporated soloist instruments with different timbres and qualities to enhance the immersive experience. These instruments adapt to the different environments within the game, further immersing players in the post-apocalyptic world of Ashfall.
    With the combination of stunning visuals and an incredible auditory experience, Ashfall promises to be a feast for the eyes and ears. Gamers can expect an immersive and cinematic gameplay experience, thanks to the collaboration between NetEase Connect, Steve Massaro, and Hans Zimmer. Stay tuned for more updates on Ashfall's development and release.
  • Subtitles section
  • I can totally see you're really into this theme.
  • Yeah, that's why I'm so excited about this next game.
  • Another game with a post-apocalyptic theme.
  • Ashfall.
  • Ashfall.
  • Any surprises waiting for us in this game?
  • Well, besides being a veritable feast for the eyes, it also offers an incredible auditory experience.
  • Does Hans Zimmer's soundtrack count as a surprise?
  • Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
  • Is this for real?
  • Is this a PC game?
  • Well, it's a cross-platform post-apocalyptic MMORPG for PC and mobile.
  • Ashfall already captured the attention of players all around the world when it was announced at TGS last year.
  • Now, what new details can we expect from Ashfall this time around?
  • Well, let's take a look.
  • Hello, This is Steve Massaro.
  • And this is Hans Zimmer.
  • And we're very happy to be here.
  • Probably about a year, year and a half ago, they came to us with a bunch of concepts of these kind of futuristic, post-apocalyptic settings.
  • As a gamer myself, it really kind of seemed really cool to fuse these different elements of this futurism and this post-apocalyptic environment.
  • Because we wanted to keep it very cinematic, we kept orchestra as the through-line to each of the places that you go and all of the things that you do.
  • We also included a lot of synth.
  • And synth can sound basically like anything from a sine wave to what sounds like a real instrument.
  • So a lot of it is bridging the gap between the orchestra and the synth and creating a world for each of these locations that kind of speak to the world itself.
  • We'd also use a lot of soloist instruments that have different timbres or qualities to them that lend themselves to depending on where you are in the game.
  • You know, for instance, there's a couple of Chinese instruments that we use in some of the cities, and then there's some more like woody flute-type instruments that we'll use in some other cities based on their establishment and based on the city themselves.
  • Video games have opened a whole new territory of freedom of how we can express ourselves sonically.
  • And the more imagination there is in the video games, the more imagination we can add in the music.
  • How you keep the player engaged is the music, you know, and the music becomes this river, and you're basically on this journey and on this boat, you know, pretend on a journey.
  • And then the music drives you, you know, lets you be in this journey and lets you feel different things and colour things differently and just keeps you constantly emotionally engaged.
  • For the battle music, we had a couple iterations of low-intensity and high-intensity music, and so the player could kind of gradually go from sneaking around to intense, you know, boss battles and action like that.
  • When you hear the first note of the music when you start this game, you know, I immediately want you to be thrust into this post-apocalyptic world.
  • I wanted to carry you on this journey.
  • So I don't know how you feel, Steve, but I'm hoping that everybody has truly enjoyed the music on this game and truly recognises the genius that you are.
  • Yeah, I'll carry on making tea and coffees for you.
  • No, no, no.
  • But no, I'm saying, you know, thank you for being with us.
  • Thank you for listening to us.
  • Thank you for enjoying the game.
  • And thank you for just being a great audience.
  • Yeah, thank you.
  • Wow, a perfect audio-visual experience.
  • This is one game we'd recommend wearing headphones when playing.
  • Ashfall will soon begin pre-registration for closed beta testing.
  • Keep an eye out on the official website for the latest news.
