Impact of video game music

Due to the available technology, video games are now becoming more generative, ie the music is different every time the game is played. This means there must be endless possibilities in terms of music. Composers often create and work to a set of rules so that the music is adapted depending on what happens to the player. Some video games require 60 hours of music.

Many game also use classical music to set the world scenes. For example, Hitman features Puccini鈥檚 opera music and in other games Chopin鈥檚 piano music can be heard.
