Los Angeles, CA, California, United States – March 15, 2024 —
In the dynamic intersection of music and virtual worlds, Vivita Zheng emerges as a visionary force, sculpting the auditory landscapes of over 100 gaming titles. Her remarkable journey from the cultural depths of China to the innovative forefront of the United States’ gaming industry underscores a narrative not just of personal achievement but of a profound reshaping of gaming music itself. Collaborating with world-renowned talents such as Hans Zimmer, OneRepublic, G.E.M., Adam Kasper, and Thomas Parisch, Zheng’s contributions span a diverse array of highly acclaimed projects, including League of Legends, Call of Duty Mobile, Honor of Kings, PUBG Mobile, and Assassin’s Creed.
Born Weiying, embodying “brilliance” and “jade,” Zheng’s initial foray into music was under the guidance of her father, leading her to a foundational education in classical piano at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. Her artistic journey, however, would extend far beyond these early teachings, drawing inspiration from eclectic sources such as China’s underground radio and the avant-garde echoes of Germany’s ECM Records. This diverse musical exposure not only broadened her horizons but also ignited an inner creativity, propelling her onto a path of composition and innovation.
Zheng’s debut, “The Ink Sea,” a New Age album weaving themes of reincarnation with musical narratives, ascended to the pinnacle of China’s Best Album Chart in 2011. This initial success was a mere prelude to a transformative educational journey in Paris, where she dived into traditional film scoring and visual programming for music and multimedia, acquiring dual master’s degrees in École normale de musique de Paris and Université Paris 8. This period was instrumental in shaping Zheng’s unique approach to music, blending classical influences with contemporary digital mediums.
Upon relocating to Los Angeles, Zheng seized the burgeoning opportunities within the gaming industry, marking a turning point in her career with the viral success of “War Song of Kings” for Honor of Kings. This project, among others, not only showcased her versatility and innovative spirit but also established her as a beloved figure in the gaming music realm. Her subsequent collaboration with Guillaume Roussel for Call of Duty Mobile Season 6 further affirmed her creative prowess, garnering widespread acclaim.
As a scoring producer, Zheng’s contributions to the auditory dimension of Honor of Kings are unparalleled, with tracks like “Evolve” achieving global recognition and dominating music charts. Beyond this, her influence extends across numerous gaming franchises, evidencing her capacity for impactful collaboration and musical storytelling.
Notably, Zheng’s collaboration with Hans Zimmer on an unreleased AAA game project highlights her integral role in bridging diverse creative visions, underscoring the universal language of music and its power to transcend cultural barriers.
