New York, Oct. 18, 2016 - Sumthing Else Music Works, the premier record label dedicated to releasing video game soundtracks, and The Coalition, proudly present Gears of War® 4 - The Soundtrack. Developed by The Coalition, "Gears of War 4" marks a new beginning for one of the most acclaimed video game franchises in history. The game's original music score by composer Ramin Djawadi (Game of Thrones, Iron Man) is released today via digital and streaming outlets worldwide, including iTunes and Sumthing.com, with a physical CD release available to pre-order on Amazon. 

Renowned for scoring some of Hollywood's biggest hit TV shows and films, including "Game of Thrones", "Iron Man" and "Pacific Rim," Ramin Djawadi has created a sweeping score that returns the franchise to the dark tone and intensity of the original and fuels the heart-pounding adventure and riveting story of "Gears of War 4." Djawadi's compositions mixed with the sounds of the iconic Lancers, Gnashers and voices of the franchise, take the game to a whole new level.

The first chapter of an all-new "Gears" saga thrusts players into an epic and perilous journey through the Wilds of Sera. Fight as JD Fenix - son of the legendary hero Marcus Fenix - as he embarks on a desperate mission with his friends Kait and Del to find their missing loved ones and confront a fearsome new threat. 

"Gears of War" is one of the most celebrated sagas in video game history. Launched to critical acclaim in 2006, the original defined the first-generation of HD gaming and went on to become a $1 billion dollar franchise enjoyed by 45 million players worldwide. "Gears of War" titles are published by Microsoft Game Studios and are developed by The Coalition, the development studio led by "Gears of War" co-creator Rod Fergusson.
