【Final Fantasy 7 Remake OST】Ghoul/Abzu/Leviathan Boss Battle Theme ✧ Second Phase

[@Muncheiy]

“So we’re just adding this boss to fill out the story arc of the train graveyard. It should be intense but don’t go overboard.” *spills final boss sauce into the mix*

[@spongyafiu2138]

I am impressed that there was still a lot final boss sauce for sephiroth

[@serenitythelightone7541]

“Ah the boss is gonna kill me..” (3 minutes later) “He respected me for doing it and gave me a promotion.”

[@creativename1673]

That's pretty much every boss in this game. "Alright, we've got this filler boss against a big robot before the Reactor 5 part which has literally zero plot significance. A remix of the normal battle theme should do." *Proceeds to make what is basically the most epic remix of Let the Battles Begin ever, which could easily pass as a final bosss theme*

[@fearedjames]

TBH I was annoyed by this, far too many overly long boss fights.

[@dailymadness2504]

I feel like they did that a little too much, Every boss fight felt a little more epic than it needed to be.

[@robertpowell9982]

Why does every boss theme sound like a final boss theme?! Damn!

[@starpencil]

Because the Final boss theme is one-winged angel, and it blows everything out of the park.

[@lazernor]

Because it could be the characters' last moments alive

[@EvaristoMoreira86]

They nailed at the soundtrack, no wonder it got the best soundtrack game award for it

[@Henricast]

Is that a bad thing?

[@Mijdax]

If every tracks sounds like the final boss... maybe you are the final boss?

[@GlobalWarmingSkeptic]

The FF7 remake has some of the best music in the history of gaming. Half of the soundtrack would be in the top 100 of all time. This is probably the best of the bunch.

[@Shervin86]

And people wonder why it took so long to release and why it's taking so long for p2. Because Square doesn't fuck around! Not intentionally haha I mean they re-released an entire game cuz it sucked... that says something...

[@yasgamer]

To be fair, they hired many big names for a track or two. Keiki Kobayashi, best known for the ace combat games, was hired for the Valkyrie theme.

[@princessofthecape2078]

I think the Valkyrie fight theme is better. Go listen to it if you've forgotten. It's maybe the best boss theme ever.

[@zebrakeber1989]

it's completely absurd how awesome and epic this theme is. a true masterpiece! most likely the best boss music i've ever heard in my life.

I swear when this second phase of the song hit, i was like OH MY GAWWWDDD!!!!! And then during the moment the frist phase transitioned to the second it got me saying, "oh shit, this is serious" especially at the fact that when I first fought this boss. I didnt understand how to properly fight the Ghoul but now i do, it caught me by surprise that this song also plays when you fight Abzu the 2nd time

[@anihilist2]

This is the track i keep coming back to. The track that makes the goosebumps of excitement pop up on my arms. Love this track so much. Epic boss fight music.

I literally started to cry. It reflects so many emotions. This one is pure.

A year late, but it does not. Devil's Advocate (or perhaps Eligor's Advocate?), I really struggled with Ghoul. It was a particularly annoying boss to fight. Soundtrack is a 1000% banger, but fuck that boss, haha. Am I glad those kids are dead? No. But if they are this much of a shit in death, they can't have been the nicest kids in life either.

This song isn't even part of the original game's lineup and it absolutely fits in. It's a soaring, empowering and driving melody that makes you feel like you're forced to fight despite your every instinct screaming FLIGHT! You only have one choice, and it's to overcome.

[@desolattiedevestati1180]

God this theme is just purely amazing, definitely fitting for the Ghoul boss fight, showing off the intensity of this playful dreadful ghost, nicely done with the timing at 3:30, really fits well with how chaotic the theme goes with the fight.

Most people dont hear the music much during this fight due to how intense the battle is, but man this one is epic ost

[@Dark_Sun_Gwyndolin]

I wouldn't agree men. The music itself makes the battle even more intense and epic rather than the boss itself. ⚠️

[@orangelightning9846]

OST in modern video games have been honestly pretty generic. The whole soundtrack in this game is an absolute gem. I can't get over how good it is

[@2185JTT]

Agreed. There are very few games today that stand out. This, Persona 5, Bloodborne and Dark Souls really are all just crowning achievements in music.

@@2185JTT Bloodborne and dark souls are amazing but i consider their scores as generic.

No joke, this is why I love FF7. The ONLY reason a game like this even exists at all is because the OG game was the absolute best of its time. It appears that the seventh Final Fantasy is yet unfinished. So let us rejoice... for whatever the journey may bring, can never be forgotten, nor repeated. At last, the promise is being fulfilled.

[@mtzslivegaming]

God song, can't wait for Rebirth. 🐉

[@tw4898]

I'm torn on this, because after playing through the somewhat slow and calm train graveyard section, you suddenly start this battle and this OST kicks and the moment is brought from ok side content to a truly epic battle. At the same time, had this been used during a more signifcant boss battle and cutscene it would have been potentially even more epic. I hope they remix it or take elements from it for another boss battle in FFVII Rebirth.

[@hazjones3331]

I like how you can hear the hymn of the fayth in it.

[@zanebaker9855]

I saw this comment and for like the last two weeks I thought you were full of crap and being one of THOSE fans... if you get what I mean. But earlier I finally heard it and was like "Oh my god I'm such a failure" But in my defense, its hard to notice until they put the vocals together at the end, and while I definitely agree that its there, its not exactly the same. Its missing a syllable. Plus FF X was great and all that, but not really one of my favorites, so it just went right over my head. So yeah, good ear
