Drip drop, the sound of flop
Dropzone appears to be a sci-fi MOBA, even though the product page promotes it as a top-down strategy game with 3vs3, 2vs2, and 1vs1 game modes. A bit of DOTA meets StarCraft. According to reviews, however, it's a rather mediocre fusion. The fact that the game is still in Early Access since its release on February 15, 2017, doesn't bode well. So why am I wasting my valuable life on it? Because the soundtrack comes from a composer who knows his craft.
Grant Kirkhope should be familiar to readers of this website by now, as he created true classics like Donkey Kong 64 and GoldenEye 007 . Did he achieve the same with Dropzone ? Well... no. For anyone who has played a futuristic action-focused game, familiar sounds will be ringing in their ears. Less entertaining than Overwatch and less spectacular than Supreme Commander, the twelve-track score sounds like it's borrowed from any run-of-the-mill superhero movie: suitable in the heat of battle, the OST, for me, falls somewhere in the middle, surrounded by Titanfall, Warhead , and Wagner frozen pizza.
