A video game has won a Grammy for the first time, and it was DLC

The Grammys made history last night, if you care that much, by giving out its first award just for video game soundtracks.
While games have kind of featured here and there at the Grammys in previous years (Austin Wintory won one for Journey), there hasn’t been an award solely dedicated to video games. That’s different this year though! And who won the first ever award? Stephanie Economou, for her work on Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and its Dawn of Ragnarok expansion. This does come with the asterisk that the presenter, comedian Randy Rainbow, kind of biffed the pronunciation of Valhalla, but hey, an award’s an award.
Valhalla (or Valaha) was nominated alongside a suite of other games that just honestly don’t make much sense, including the appearance of Wintory once again for Aliens: Fireteam Elite, Richard Jascques for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, Bear McCreary for Call of Duty: Vanguard, and Christopher Tin for Old World.
