Newly-launched Ivors Composers Awards will honor video game composers

Briefing

The Ivors Composers Awards aim to shine a spotlight on video game composers, acknowledging their vital role in the gaming ecosystem. Scheduled for November, this award show is a significant step towards recognizing the artistry involved in game music, which has historically been overshadowed by other development roles.

For developers, especially those in audio, this initiative could foster a deeper appreciation for sound design and composition, potentially leading to more investment in these areas. As the industry evolves, events like these not only celebrate talent but also encourage collaboration and innovation in game soundtracks.

“This award show is a significant step towards recognizing the artistry involved in game music.”
