Sumthing Else Music has announced that it is putting out
Halo Trilogy – The Complete Original Soundtracks, complete with a peek at what's on offer in
Halo Wars.
The music is composed by Bungie's audio director Martin O’Donnell and Co-Composer Michael Salvatori, with the
Halo Wars preview tracks taking the form of four pieces from Ensemble Studios' audio director, Stephen Rippy. That's not all from
Halo Wars, however. The bonus disc will also contain the opening cinematic from the game.
The album sees release in the States today and is available to download
here. You can find full details of it below. There's no official word on a UK release date, but Amazon UK reckons it will have it as of the 8th.
