Composer Austin Wintory Shares 22 Minutes of Music Created for BioWare's Canceled Mass Effect 5

Composer Austin Wintory was once in talks to make music for Mass Effect 5. Now that EA has shuttered BioWare and canceled the game, he's released his drafts online.

The award-winning composer behind Sword of the Sea, Journey, and a laundry list of other video games, movies, and shows revealed that he had been in talks to create music for the now-canceled Mass Effect revival in a post on social media. Whether he would have gone on to officially create music for what was in development under the name Mass Effect: Universe is unclear, but judging by the 22 minutes of audio published online for fans, it's clear there was some weight behind those early talks.

Wintory called Mass Effect an "all-time dream project" that never came to be. Any hope to continue working on the series seems to have been dashed, which is why any drafts he managed to drum up can now be found on YouTube. It's yet another sneak peek at a project that will likely never see the light of day, and unfortunately for the millions of Mass Effect fans still out there, it's quite good.

So here you go ... Thank you again to my friends at both BioWare and EA. To even dream in your sandbox was a privilege

"Working on Mass Effect 5 was my career's biggest dream project, my white whale," he said in the description of his YouTube upload. "It is my favorite franchise of all time, and for the last couple years I'd been in serious conversations with BioWare and EA to jump in.
