Fantasy Westward Journey Mobile Wins Silver in the Global Music Awards

      Established in 2011, the Global Music Awards are internationally recognized music awards, which aim to discover and promote the music of independent musicians. The awards attract composers from over 70 countries around the world to compete for honors each year, including the participation of many well-known Grammy and Emmy award-winning artists. Fantasy Westward Journey Mobile competed alongside the likes of world-renowned, award-winning works such as "Baldur's Gate 3" and "Frozen".

Legend of the Fox God Cutscene

      As a main dungeon in Fantasy Westward Journey Mobile, "Battle of Black and White Skeleton Spirits" features more combat and storytelling with spiritual connotations. "Legend of the Fox God Cutscene" was composed by Xu Yufan, a senior game composer in the Sonus Audio Department of NetEase Games. The music complements a heartwarming story, with different parts of the melody reflecting different emotions. The plot takes a turn in the third part, with the transformation of the fox god. The unique sound of a violin bow moving along piano strings pours out, combined with technical, electronic processing, giving players a one-of-a-kind emotional experience.

　　The battle music of "Battle of Black and White Skeleton Spirits" was composed by Wang Xihao and designed by Xu Yufan. A crystalline, synthesized sound serves as the main body of the music. Regional string music is also combined with Western guitar music for rhythmic resonance. The music's playfulness is highlighted with call and response-like echoes between traditional and electric instruments, which perfectly fits the gameplay and artistic style of "Battle of Black and White Skeleton Spirits".
