In the category of Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Dawn Of Ragnarok and its composer, Stephanie Economou, have won the first-ever Grammy award under this category.

According to the Grammy Awards’ page, Economou and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla won the first award in the video game music category at the 65th Grammys, beating Austin Wintory and Aliens: Fireteam Elite, Bear McCreary, and Call of Duty: Vanguard, Richard Jacques and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, and Christopher Tin and Old World.

We couldn’t help but chuckle during the announcement when the host mispronounced the word “Valhalla”, pointed out by one of the users via Twitter.

“I just want to recognize all of the people who fought tirelessly to bring this category of video game music into existence,” Economou accepted the Grammy. “Thank you for acknowledging and validating the power of game music. This is truly such an honor, thank you.”
