The flute guy wasn't just the flute, but the entire show

[Johnthegamer]

The flute player for XC3’s theme deserves an award tho! 🏆

[Maturas]

Even when your game doesn't win GOTY, just having the nomination and getting your game's theme played by this orchestra on this stage is more than enough of a reward and recognition.

[lxi..]

It's absolutely astounding how Stray, an indie game, managed to get a game of the year nomination alongside all these triple A titles. What an incredible feeling and accomplishment that must be

[greenhunter]

Flute Guy if you're seeing this know that the Xenoblade fandom loves and appreciates you. You gave us the best part of the medley and you're the true MVP of this year's Game Awards.

[ogbex]

For any one curious the flute guy is called Pedro Eustache. He also helped Hans Zimmer work on the soundtrack for the movie Dune which won an Oscar.

[kennobu]

Flute guy giving his 2 instruments in XC2 alone? GOAT!

[ryanpitz]

The transition between Stray to Elden Ring music was so incredible that the camera and the cameraman felt it at 2:04

[NaruteetheFodderPianist]

Nobody is talking how epic of a medley this arrangement was. So fluid transitions from one game to another

[alexandresadouni]

For those who wonder, the "flute guy" name is Pedro Eustache.

[vicdemon]

You can tell the flute guy was especially passionate for his performance for Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
He’s definitely the underdog of this show.

[lanceg]

Flute man really went "ITS FLUTIN TIME" and Fluted the whole show

[totally_sane_youtube_enjoyer]

Everyone’s talking about flute man, but the guy on drums was killing it too!

Hearing The Weight of Life in the game awards, clearly this is one of the better timelines.

[Sabuuchi]

For anyone interested, the flute guy's name is Pedro Eustache. He truly was the real MVP.

[Astr-]

The dude who was preforming Weight of Life deserves a game award

[braindead]

The jump from A plague tale to Stray was beautiful

[TheInfinityMaster]

After watching TGA 2023's orchestra, I went back to watching TGA 2021 & 2022's orchestras and while all 3 of them are great in their own way, I'd say THIS orchestra for 2022 was, without a doubt, the *BEST orchestra* out of all of them. Simply WOW! *10/10.*

[huskyflower]

The Orchestra absolutely nailed the music presentation for Xenoblade Chronicles 3
