Thefloodof specialmusic releasesto commemorateFinal Fantasy’s25th anniversary continues. In addition toFinal Fantasy VinylsandFinal Fantasy Tribute -Thanks-, Square Enix is recording an entire album of orchestral arrangements fromFinal Fantasy IthroughXIVfor the upcomingFinal Fantasy Orchestra Album.
First, check out a sample on the album’sofficial website.
Now that you’re salivating, know that the album is due out on July 15, 2025 and will feature a version ofFinal Fantasy VIII’s“Eyes on Me” sung by Crystal Kay (best name ever?), come on a Blu-ray audio disc (can we get some video, please?), and include a special edition vinyl with hand-picked selections by Nobuo Uematsu for those who spring for the limited edition release.
The bad news? The limited edition set has the hefty price tag of 7,429 Yen ($91.42) onCD Japan. But of all theFinal Fantasy25th anniversary music releases, this has to be the one I’m most excited about. How about you?
