It’s kind of crazy how Wintory can make anything work as everything … the trumpet can take lead for 15 seconds, then fade to background just as quickly and surprisingly as Rook switching from ranged to melee in the game’s combat. They are layered together so well, and commonly re-used motifs serve as grounding/substantive melodies in one moment, then serve as ephemeral transitions from one movement to another in the next moment. I think the most enjoyable aspect of this medley is that, well-versed as I am with the OST material of Banner Saga 3 (and, really, all three games in the trilogy), I struggle to identify individual themes. However, composer Austin Wintory stated via his Facebook account that if digital artwork should be associated with it, the standard artwork from the OST should be used for this track (hence the artwork you see here). No metadata is included with the file, nor any artwork. One strange thing about this release: it came as a fully uncompressed digital. Overture was released to those who qualified for it via preorder as DLC, but that DLC is currently - perhaps permanently - exclusive to those who preordered the title. It is, in fact, a medley arrangement by Austin Wintory, with his top team of musicians from the OST performing this lengthy medley.

Its epic tale tells of a sun that no longer sets, the death of the old. This track is not part of the game’s standard OST. The Banner Saga is a tactical RPG thats been pushing its way into my thoughts even when Im occupied with other things. ♫If you’re having preorder problems, I feel bad for you son I got 99 problems, but getting exclusive preorder content ain’t one♫įor backers of The Banner Saga 3’s Kickstarter, as well as anyone who preordered the game digitally (PC or console), a special recording entitled “The Banner Saga 3 Overture” was released alongside the game.
