EA announced today that Tyler Bates, the man behind the scores of the 300 and Watchmen movies, has been bagged as the composer for Army of Two: The 40th Day. EA Montreal’s audio director Lewis James says Bates “examined every part of the game and how players will move through the world to craft a score that truly represents their actions and the chaos unfolding around them.” Watch the video above to see what he means by that.

The game’s out on January 12 in North America and January 8 in Europe.
