The scores of both Star Wars: Battlefront games, released in 2015 and 2017 respectively, were both acclaimed upon their release. The first Star Wars: Battlefront, released in 2015, won Music of the Year and Best Interactive Score at the Game Audio Network Guild (GANG) awards, while Star Wars: Battlefront II, from 2017, won Video Game Score of the Year at ASCAP’s Film and Television Music Awards. The soundtracks for both were composed by Gordy Haab. Haab’s other “Star Wars” game scores include “Star Wars: Fallen Order” (2019) and “Star Wars: The Old Republic” (2011), both also GANG award winners, and “Kinect Star Wars” (2012).
Gordy Haab had the following to say about his work on the Battlefront games:
“I consider composing the original score for EA’s ‘Star Wars: Battlefront’ series one of my greatest accomplishments. Creating new music for a game with such high expectations was a colossal task, only made more daunting by my own passion and desire to pay honor to my favorite franchise. And for this reason, I poured a lifetime of love into every note. As did the orchestra who performed it – and every person who helped bring the music to life.”
