VGChartz’s Taneli Palola: “Every single year video games provide us with so much amazing new music that it’s really difficult to keep up with it all, and 2020 was no different. Whether it was the intensity of Mick Gordon’s work in Doom Eternal; Gareth Coker’s absolutely beautiful soundscapes, mixing hope with melancholy in Ori and the Will of the Wisps; the exceptional work by Masashi Hamauzu, Nobuo Uematsu and several others in bringing to life a whole new side of Final Fantasy VII in Final Fantasy VII Remake; or the numerous other examples I don’t have the time or space to list here, 2020 was home to more great music than anyone could realistically listen to in a single year. With that said, here are the five video game scores we voted the best of the entire year.”
