What does breakneck speed sound like in a galaxy far, far away?

That’s the question the audio design team at Fuse Games had to answer when developing the unique sound of Star Wars: Galactic Racer™.

We’re delighted to say that their hard work has been recognised, as Star Wars: Galactic Racer has been nominated for Best Audio Design in the Golden Joystick Awards!

Here’s what the audio design team at Fuse Games had to say about this achievement:

“We’re absolutely overjoyed to be nominated for a Golden Joystick Award. It's a common misconception that making Star Wars™ video game audio is straight forward. Whilst there is so much groundbreaking film and TV sound design to reference, our interactive medium requires completely different creative and executive vision. The huge amount of bespoke, new audio that we have created must stand alongside this illustrious heritage.

We put an enormous amount of care into the audio for this game and from the very beginning our goal was to create a player-first, cinematic and authentic Star Wars racing experience. There’s been an incredible amount of thought, craft and love behind every part of it, so seeing the work recognised by critics and the wider community is wonderful. We’re incredibly proud of the team and so grateful to everyone who has listened, played and supported us.”
