No weekend plans yet?
🥊 Street Fighter Movie hits cinemas today.

We may be a little biased, but we'd recommend seeing this one somewhere with a very good sound system.

The team at Sound Lab a Keywords Studio created the sound design for the film, bringing the punches, powers and world of the iconic Street Fighter game to life on the big screen.

Who's ready for round one?

What goes into award-winning sound?
For the Secrets of Strixhaven trailer for Magic: The Gathering, it looked something like this 👇

• A full orchestra recording on the legendary Barbra Streisand Scoring Stage in Los Angeles.
• A sound designer building creature voices from friends, feisty pugs, frog croaks and baby foxes.
• And a lot of people bringing music, sound design and voice-over together into one experience.

Watch the full video to hear more from composer Vincent Oppido and Sound Lab a Keywords Studio about how it all came together.

Huge congratulations to everyone involved on winning Best Sound Design in a Video Game Trailer at the Music and Sound Awards! 🏆

RuneScape found an audience in China despite being very, very British.

That’s exactly why localization strategy isn’t always about adapting everything.

Sometimes, it’s about knowing how far you can bring the player into the game.
