Exclusive: Bringing ABZÛ to life with composer Austin Wintory

August 1, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Take a behind the scenes look at Grammy nominated composer Austin Wintory creating the much anticipated ABZÛ score ahead of the game’s release tomorrow on PlayStation 4 and PC in this exclusive video…

ABZÛ is an epic descent into the depths of the sea, where players will explore beautifully rendered ocean environments with fluid swimming controls. The experience draws inspiration from the deep innate narrative that we all carry within our subconscious: the story of ABZÛ is a universal myth that resonates across cultures. The name references a concept from the oldest mythologies; it is the combination of the two ancient words AB, meaning ocean, and ZÛ, meaning to know. ABZÛ is the ocean of wisdom.

Wintory’s previous video game titles include Journey and The Banner Saga 1 & 2 to name a few. You can learn more about him here.
