In this new video, the Gangs of Sherwood composer Markus Zierhofer reveals the inspirations behind the new release’s original soundtrack. In line with the Gangs of Sherwood world, the game’s music offers a science-fantasy atmosphere, combining medieval and modern aspects.
“This is achieved by using old instruments, such as the Stroh violin or hurdy-gurdy, whose tones are distorted to obtain music halfway between the Middle Ages and a more modern era,” explains Markus Zierhofer. “We also made sure that the original soundtrack adapts to the action in the game. For example, the music can be intensified by layering when you face a host of enemies at the same time, or when your combo gauge goes up.”
