Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord Remake Game Wins Grammy Award

The winners of the 67th Grammy Awards were revealed on Sunday and composer Winifred Phillips won the “Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media” award for the 3D remake of the original Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord game.

The late Andrew C. Greenberg and AnimEigo co-founder Robert Woodhead co-created the original Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord game in 1981.

The franchise remains consistently popular among Japanese players, with the nation’s Wizardry spin-offs outnumbering the primary games in the series.
