Nobuo Uematsu, the famous composer for the Final Fantasy series, will be composing the theme song for the final game of the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy.
During the Final Fantasy Rebirth VII Special Talk Session on the official Square Enix Music Channel, Uematsu discussed Rebirth with the creative director Tetsuya Nomura and series writer Kazushige Nojima.
After discussing the creation of the Final Fantasy VII Rebirth theme song ‘No Promises To Keep’, the trio discussed the future of the Remake trilogy, in which Nomura asks Uemtasu to continue composing the theme song for the third game.
“Since you worked on the first and second game in the series, it stands to reason that you have to come back for the third,” Nomura says. “Not that we’ve made it official yet, but I’d like to believe you’re a lock for the next title. You’ll do it, right?”
“Again, this isn’t an official statement or offer. Just a gentleman’s agreement, maybe? You will come back for the third game, right?” Nomura further said.
“It’d be my honor,” Uematsu replies. “Really, I’m honored you’re even extending the offer.
“Are you up for the challenge, though?” Nomura asks. “It’s going to be hard to surpass the songs you’ve already composed for us. What are you going to do?”
“For starters,” Uematsu jokes, “I’m going to take a vacation.”
Nobuo Uematsu expressing interest in continuing to compose for the Final Fantasy Remake trilogy is great news for fans, as the songs he composed for Final Fantasy VII such as One-Winged Angel have long become iconic staples in the franchise.
