For the first time ever, the Grammys has a dedicated video game category, with Assassin’s Creed Valhalla taking the first win.
This year’s Grammy Awards was pretty significant for the games industry, since it marked the introduction of a Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media category.
While music from games has been nominated and even won Grammys before, the event now has a category specifically for the medium.
Its first winner was Assassin’s Creed Valhalla (or rather its Dawn Of Ragnarök expansion), with composer Stephanie Economou taking home the award, but the moment is already more famous for the host’s comical mispronunciation of the game’s name.
As seen in a clip shared online, presenter and comedian Randy Rainbow doesn’t seem to have ever seen the word valhalla in his life, apparently panicking and reading it as ‘valalha.’
So presumably he’s not much of a Led Zeppelin fan and has never watched a Thor movie.
