Here's a quick look behind the sounds of Atreus' Sonic Arrows from #GodofWarRagnarok, one of the many awesome features I got to work on! 🏹 #GameAudio #GameDev #SoundDesign

[Bryan Higa @bryanhiga]

Got to work on the sounds of It-Z's guns and abilities in this vid, along with the Kill Confirm SFX ping you can also hear. So grateful to have worked with the amazing teams at Firewalk Studios and PlayStation on Concord! Let's go!! 🫰❤️ #gameaudio

She's always got an escape plan ✨

It-Z is a Tempest-touched phenom that can slip out of any situation. Learn more ⬇️

The first time I saw the concept @dlongfish sent me I was like.. goddamn that's heat. And then when Josiah modeled and textured it? And @JamesVietChe1 animated it? And Kevin and @JamesAdkinsVFX suped it up with vfx? And @bryanhiga made the audio sing?

Now that's some gamedev 🤘��

@GameAudioGirl Found some more pics 🥹

@DvsSound @GameAudioGirl Didn't have to tell me twice!

[Bryan Higa @bryanhiga]

Still one of my top favorite memories, especially with @GameAudioGirl! 👠👟👞🥿👡👢

11 years ago… recording footsteps for Sunset Overdrive.

These gaming layoffs are terrible and depressing, I love this hobby but if the very people who pour their heart and soul into making this form of entertainment are losing their livelihood then what are we doing?

instead of record profits, how about record retention

[Bryan Higa @bryanhiga]

@JessicaRauVoice was so amazing to work with! She brought the Sirens to LIFE! Bringing this moment to fans was a true testament of the collaboration within the team. So proud of how it turned out. 🥹

My wife @JessicaRauVoice is an absolute BADASS. Check her out as the Siren in @SonySantaMonica’s #GodOfWarRagnarokValhalla.

@sonic_presence @nick_tomassetti also helped bring this moment together with the sound of the big doors opening as well! Still one of my favorite moments to be a part of. ❤️

Game developers thrive on surprise & delight. We love making you happy in a way you didn't expect.

That whole concept is one of the core beliefs that drives this entire art form and the industry that evolved around it.

Please respect surprise & delight today.

It is now available 🔥 The music of #GodOfWarRagnarokValhalla is something truly special for this storied franchise.

Put on a pair of good headphones for this one.. @bearmccreary and Sparks & Shadows knocked it out of the park and maybe even into orbit.

[Bryan Higa @bryanhiga]
