AD:
After 10 years of in-house work as a Composer / Audio Director at Kojima Productions, I am very excited to announce that I will continue my future as a freelance composer. It was explosive! Thanks Kojima Productions! Now, I'm happy to tackle a variety of projects across all types of media.
Kojima Productions therefore loses Ludvig Forssell today, it is official, but it is not certain that the author will not continue to work - even if as an external - for the software house of the well-known developer Hideo Kojima. As specified in the Tweet in fact, the composer has absolutely not quit his work, but has decided to open up to more media and not to be tied to a single software house.
While it is therefore possible that we will see further works of his in future Kojima Productions projects, there is also the doubt about the possibility that Ludvig Forssell has already put his hand to the new game of the company, which has not yet been formalized but could be in development for a long time. time. Celebrating the happy event, the composer has also released his official page, which you can access through this link, where you can also listen to some of his melodies from the most famous Death Stranding soundtrack, such as “Once, There Was and Explosion “.
We look forward to discovering which projects the artist will put his hand to over the next few years, following this new path that could remove him - perhaps only partially - from the world of video games. Before leaving you, we particularly want to refer you to ours review of the latest work by Kojima Productions, which you can consult here.
