Recently, Managing Editor Jon Wood visited the offices of The Chronicles of Spellborn in The Netherlands. Today, we present an article about the use of sound in the game as Jon sat down with Sound Designer Matthew Florianz.

On top of this, the article also presents an exclusive video and some music from the game.

Here at MMORPG.com, we often talk about a number of different aspects of the games that we cover. We talk about graphics, animations, gameplay, combat and more, but rarely, if ever, have I had the opportunity to spend an entire article talking about sound.

Fortunately for me, during my recent trip to their studios, the folks over at The Chronicles of Spellborn were kind enough to grant me some time sitting down with Matthew Florianz, the game's Sound Designer who was kind enough to talk with me about sound's contribution to their game.

Florianz himself is friendly, knowledgeable and has a real passion for what he does. Occupying one of the few personal offices (a necessity when you're working with sound) that I saw on my tour through their studio, Matthew is responsible for the overall sound of the game.

Read the whole article here.

Cheers,
Jon Wood

I love RPG''s! And Girls!
Listening to those tracks was great, Jesper Kyd is great!  This game...is getting better and better!  I really like the idea that they aren't going to shove the sound right in our faces!  Oh I can't wait!

Release already lol!

I really like the artwork in this game.  I hope that it will play as well as it looks.
