  • The score is highly recommended, though note that it was exclusively available with the deluxe edition of the game and is therefore now a rare purchase. Though written firmly in the tradition of Williams, the score also has a voice of its own, especially through the nautical aspects and Eastern influences. It is filled with memorable expansive melodies, rich affecting orchestrations, and contrasting moods from start to finish. Overall, the score for Silent Hunter 4: Wolves of the Pacific stands up strongly against other cinematic war scores out there. Though there wasn’t a live budget for the title, the samples used of exceptional quality and are beautifully mixed.

They emphasise the setting in a number of the more ambient contributions to the score. While composing the soundtrack, Graves and Abernethy were very aware of the underwater focus. Plenty of other highly memorable themes occur through the soundtrack, culminating in the recapitulation of the main theme in the momentous end credits sequence.

    It’s an all-round gem on par with some of Williams’ and Giacchino’s greatest war anthems. The harmonisation grows all the more beautiful and the subtle use of choir adds a finishing touch. It’s impressive how the melody slowly develops through several sections from the elegaic opening through to the uplifting finish. Yet while somewhat derivative, the quality of the composition is outstanding. It is written close to the convention of war films, mainly intersynching a bittersweet slow brass melody against resolute string accompaniment. BodyĪs with most of Graves’ scores, Silent Hunter 4: Wolves of the Pacific is headlined by a strong main theme. A physical soundtrack release was available for those who purchased the limited edition of the game.
