Inon Zur scores Bethesda’s Forthcoming STARFIELD Videogame

Emmy Award-winner and 3-time BAFTA nominated composer Inon Zur (FALLOUT, DRAGON AGE, PRINCE OF PERSIA) is scoring STARFIELD, the first new science fiction universe in 25 years from Bethesda Game Studios, the award-winning creators of THE ELDER SCROLLS V: SKYRIM and FALLOUT 4. Set hundreds of years in our future, STARFIELD is an epic about hope, our shared humanity, and answering our greatest mystery. In this next generation role-playing game set amongst the stars, create any character you want and explore with unparalleled freedom. The official teaser trailer for STARFIELD was released at a joint Microsoft Xbox and Bethesda Games showcase held during E3 2021, followed by a video introduction entitled ‘Into the Starfield: The Journey Begins’ – both featuring original music compositions by Zur. STARFIELD will release November 11, 2022.

“I would like to invite you on an exciting new musical journey I’ve been on for the past several years,” said Zur. “I am so looking forward to sharing our unique, classical sci-fi direction for STARFIELD. My admiration and thanks to the incomparable creative visionary Todd Howard, audio director extraordinaire Mark Lampert, and the entire BGS family, for their daring artistic ambition and the honor of entrusting me with scoring their next groundbreaking experience.”
