FOR COLANTONIO AND HIS PEERS, SOUND HAS BEEN JUST AS IMPORTANT AS SIGHT
If you were to play a word association game involving eerie frontier adventure Weird West—and the studio behind it, Wolfeye—you would pretty quickly arrive at the idea of ‘weird wolves’. It’s a term that could easily apply to the lycanthropes that hide among the game’s nascent, ramshackle communities as blacksmiths and bank tellers, or else terrorize the former as bandits. But it’s also a great band name.
As it happens, Weird Wolves is the performing name of Austin musician Ava Gore and Wolfeye’s creative director,. It’s from there that the studio’s new game has sprouted, and from there that branches can be traced back over decades, all the way back to the beginnings of Arkane.
