In 1999, Bowie contributed to the video game Omikron: The Nomad Soul. A sci-fi game with supernatural and political themes, Bowie appeared as two different characters: Boz, a digital being and spiritual leader, and as a singer of the in-game band called “The Dreamers”. Some of the songs that Bowie created for the game would later be included (some in an altered form) on his next album Hours.
