Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III has joined Xbox Game Pass. The first-person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games is currently available for PS4 and PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Series X|S consoles, along with Windows through Steam.

Activision published the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III Remixed Original Soundtrack, composed by London-based musician Walter Mair. The compilation features arrangements by Justus Dobrin, JD Mayer, and Sam Marshall. Mair previously composed the score for Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, developed by Toys for Bob and published by Activision.


The composer's website offers insights into the recording process behind the seventy-minute original soundtrack album:

Walter fused electronic and traditional orchestral instruments, blurring organic and industrial musical styles for an emotional backdrop. Collaborating closely with the London Contemporary Orchestra at Air Studios (London), he experimented with unique sounds like strings played with guitar picks and brass instruments distorted through analog effects. He also worked closely with solo instrumentalists to enhance the score’s emotional depth. To ensure an immersive experience, Walter collaborated with Sledgehammer Games and Spider Farm Productions, creating an adaptive soundtrack that responded to players‘ styles and gameplay pace.

The 24-track digital soundtrack is streaming on Spotify, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music Unlimited, recorded at Studio 1 of AIR Studios. Behind-the-scenes video "Composer to Controller: Behind the Music of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III" is streaming on the Sledgehammer Games YouTube channel.
