Final Fantasy Resonance Soundtrack: 120 Tracks & OST Guide

On June 10, 2026, during a Nintendo Direct, Square Enix announced Final Fantasy Resonance — and with it, a new musical chapter for the series. The game is the first Final Fantasy built in HD-2D, shaped by a question the studio asked itself: what if Final Fantasy had kept pushing the limits of pixel art? Its soundtrack answers with scale: 120 tracks on four CDs, including 33 new compositions alongside music from Final Fantasy Brave Exvius.

The score is led by Elements Garden, the game launches on October 22, 2026 (October 23 on Japanese Steam), and the official album follows in Japan on October 28. A free demo covering the first chapter has been available since early September, with save data transfer to the full game.

This guide covers everything confirmed so far about the Final Fantasy Resonance soundtrack: what the album includes, who composed it, how it connects to Brave Exvius, and when you can hear it.

Final Fantasy Resonance is the first Final Fantasy game presented in HD-2D, announced by Square Enix on June 10, 2026 during a Nintendo Direct. The concept behind the project is a question: what if Final Fantasy had continued to push the limits of pixel art? The result pairs a detailed pixel-art aesthetic with modern depth, lighting, and effects.

The game draws directly from the universe of Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. Rain, Lasswell, Fina, Grandshelt, and Veritas of the Dark all return, joined by historic Final Fantasy characters. On the systems side, Resonance features turn-based combat, Crystals, Visions, and espers — a combination that leans into the series' classic identity.

Players do not have to wait until launch to try it: a free demo covering the first chapter has been available since early September 2026, and progress transfers to the full game. A playable demo will also be on the Square Enix booth at Tokyo Game Show 2026, which runs from September 17 to 21. The game itself releases on October 22, 2026.

The official Final Fantasy Resonance soundtrack contains 120 tracks spread across four CDs. Thirty-three of those tracks are new compositions created for Resonance, while the remaining music comes from the catalogue of Final Fantasy Brave Exvius — making the album both an original score and a curated entry point into the Brave Exvius musical world.

That structure mirrors the game itself. Since Resonance is built on the Brave Exvius universe, the soundtrack carries familiar material from that world alongside brand-new pieces written for its HD-2D presentation. Square Enix has listed the album under the reference SQEX-11240-3.

A full tracklist breakdown has not been detailed in the official announcements so far, so specific song names and disc splits should be taken from the official product page once published. What is confirmed is the shape of the album: 120 tracks, four discs, 33 new songs, and a direct line to Brave Exvius music.

The Final Fantasy Resonance soundtrack is composed by Elements Garden, with five composers credited: Noriyasu Agematsu, Seima Kondo, Ryota Tomaru, Junpei Fujita, and Hitoshi Fujima. The team is responsible for the 33 new tracks written for the game, layered on top of the existing Final Fantasy Brave Exvius material.

For a series where the composer is often as celebrated as the game itself — from the melody-first tradition built by Nobuo Uematsu to Masayoshi Soken's work on Final Fantasy XIV — Resonance marks a notable moment: the musical identity of a new Final Fantasy title placed in the hands of an outside music group.

Whether the score follows the series' long line of character themes and memorable motifs will only be clear once the album is out. For now, the confirmed facts are the team, the names, and the scale: 33 new compositions among 120 tracks.

Final Fantasy Resonance does not build its cast from scratch — it takes its world directly from Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. Rain, Lasswell, Fina, Grandshelt, and Veritas of the Dark return as the central figures, and the soundtrack reflects that inheritance: alongside its 33 new compositions, the album carries music originally created for Brave Exvius.

The connection extends beyond music. Resonance pairs that universe with systems long associated with classic Final Fantasy: turn-based combat, Crystals, Visions, espers, and appearances from historic Final Fantasy characters. In practice, the game reads as a bridge — the Brave Exvius world presented through the pixel-art heritage the series is known for.

For listeners, that means the Resonance OST doubles as a Brave Exvius collection. Fans who spent years with the mobile game will recognize material that shaped its identity, while newcomers get a single album that introduces both the new score and the music that came before it.

Two release dates matter here. The game launches on October 22, 2026, with the Japanese Steam page listing October 23. The official soundtrack album follows on October 28, 2026 in Japan, under the reference SQEX-11240-3 — six days after the game's release.

One point of caution: the October 28 date is the Japanese release. Square Enix has not announced a Western release date for the physical album, so availability outside Japan may depend on regional distribution and import options. Treat any specific overseas date with caution until it appears on an official Square Enix channel.

Until then, there are two ways to get closer to the music: the free demo, available since early September with chapter 1 and save data transfer, and the playable demo at Tokyo Game Show 2026, held from September 17 to 21 at the Square Enix booth.

The Resonance OST is not out yet, but the wider Final Fantasy musical world is one click away. Materia FM streams Final Fantasy music around the clock — the live radio stream mixes themes across the whole series, from the NES era to modern orchestral scores, with no playlist management required.
