Using the right track is crucial to making sure a game’s trailer sticks in your mind, and the Music Week’s Sync Awards will recognize that next week in London. Massive Attack and Metro Exodus (opens in new tab) will fight it out with Take Me Home, Country Roads and Fallout 76 (opens in new tab) and Leonard Cohen and Assassin’s Creed Origins.
The ceremony will take place in London on October 18, and will be hosted by British comedian Tom Ward.
