Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord, a 3D remake of the original 1981 RPG, has been awarded the Grammy for Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media. Composer Winifred Phillips expressed her gratitude to Digital Eclipse and the audience for their support, stating the award signifies a significant recognition of music's role in gaming.
Phillips' victory was a significant achievement, surpassing nominations from prominent composers such as Wilbert Roget, II (Star Wars Outlaws), John Paesano (Marvel's Spider-Man 2), Bear McCreary (God of War Ragnarök: Valhalla), and Pinar Toprak (Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora). In a post-award interview, she described her win as a career highlight, emphasizing the unique collaborative nature of video game music composition. The music, she explained, must dynamically adapt to the player's experience, creating a deeply personal and engaging soundscape.
Phillips joins a prestigious list of previous winners, including Stephanie Economou (Assassin's Creed Valhalla) and Stephen Barton and Gordy Haab (Star Wars Jedi: Survivor). The win also underscores the growing recognition of video game music within the broader music industry, following Christopher Tin's historic Grammy win for "Baba Yetu" (Civilization 4) in 2011.
