BAFTA Nominated Composer Kazuma Jinnouchi Announced As Lead Guild Wars 3 Composer

We know the Guild Wars fans are waiting on whatever information they can get on Guild Wars 3 – even if it’s not something like combat information or beta dates, or what have you. That’s the case with today’s news, which doesn’t provide details on what we commonly think of as a game’s features but still has a pretty big impact on the game. After all, you could be listening to the game’s music for a very long time.

Today, ArenaNet dropped a behind the scenes video introducing Kazuma Jinnouchi as the lead composer for the upcoming MMORPG. The name might be familiar to some of you, he’s a BAFTA nominee who has worked on other game franchises such as Halo, Star Wars, Metal Gear, and Ghost in the Shell.

Of course, he won’t be the only one helping to build out the game’s world through music. He’ll be joined by Asuka Ito (known for Nintendo franchises Rhytm Heaven and Pilot Wings) as well as Guild Wars 2 composer Maclaine Diemer.
