What is happening now

Ground Zero is an indie title that arrived on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC in April 2026. Beyond the basic release information, coverage has focused on the creative process behind the game's audio design. Composer Petri Alanko, known for his work on Control Resonant, has discussed how he approaches scoring the game by drawing inspiration directly from Remedy's concept art. Alanko's synesthesia - a neurological condition that allows him to perceive sensory crossovers between sound and vision - serves as his primary compositional tool, enabling him to translate visual elements into musical ideas that complement the game's aesthetic.
