2026 Grammy Awards Video Game Music Recap
It feels a bit crazy to be talking about video game music community representation at the Grammys, and for actual game music soundtracks and arrangements, at that. This year, the 68th annual Grammys had an excellent selection of artists with ties to the game music community up for nominations. First up, Wilbert Roget II picked up 2 nominations in the Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media, for both Helldivers 2 as well as his soundtrack for the Star Wars Outlaws [โฆ]https://thasauce.net/2026/02/03/2026-grammy-awards-video-game-music-recap/

One of his classics. I love how the lyrics describe the boss fight with so much pathos. She lets him win!
