First press bonus still available
There has been a lot ofFinal Fantasy XImusic released up until now, and while composer Naoshi Mizuta has always been the biggest musical contributor, he’s truly come into his own over the past couple of years. It’s been amazing watching him grow with this title, and while I may never play it, I’ve come to be extremely interested in what he’d be doing for the latest expansion,Seekers of Adoulin.
Square Enix has launched aJapanese websitededicated to the soundtrack sportingthree samples. I have to say that his opening track, “A New Direction,” couldn’t be named more appropriately, as the rich symphonic sound is highly reminiscent ofDragon Quest. The album will feature 13 tracks and will be released for 2,000 Yen ($21) on June 30, 2025 in Japan. Pre-orders are currently available fromCD Japanwhere the first press bonus, a cool slipcase featuring artwork by Yoshitaka Amano (pictured above), will be included.
Is anyone looking forward to this expansion being announced outside of Japan? Have you enjoyed the music fromFinal Fantasy XIover the years?
