Final Fantasy 9 - Battle Extended

Audio is owned by Square Enix.
Produced by Nobuo Uematsu.

[@kamiraffe3230]

I love how the intro melody (that comes from the classic final fantasy games) plays constantly in the track in the background as if it were a more essential tribute than a simple detail reminiscent of old Final Fantasy normal battle soundtracks. Very ingenious.

[@lokibau]

ff9 its all about tributing old final fantasy games

[@jules2528]

Vivi’s cute little animation lives in my head rent free every time I hear this track 🥹

[@mouhsine5651]

i don't know but this theme seems to fit better with the start of the battle theme that we can hear in all of FF games before and after FF9...truly epic...

[@vgfishnerd5800]

My eyes just watered up the moment this started! What is this!?!? Why does this music have so power over me???

[@NoName-md6fd]

Because when the bass goes : ba ba ba ba ba we can clearly see Vivi cast a spell.

[@doscuramenos]

It's the Nostalgia factor.

[@nelia039]

The power of a great composer! Thank you Uematsu-san ❤

[@homesless]

I grew up with this, and I maintain this is the most powerful battle theme.

[@SteveSilverskull]

just the right amount of lively and atmospheric for D&D battle music. thank you for the long version.

I can keep listening to this whole day and i have this adrenaline. FF9 Battle theme music is the best I've experienced in the entire final fantasy series

If what you say is true, you are one hell of a wierd dude. Make use of your day on a much more productive manner.

[@Dad_Shoes]

I'm playing this for the first time right now and I'm the same way. I started last week and this theme is already one of my favorites.

Hopefully we get a complete remake one day, FFIX captured the essence of what Final Fantasy games are.

[@tplink]

Lets just hope it’s not like FF7 remake. They should make a faithful remake with IX.

[@kongtsi25]

Bring back my child memory i want to play it again

[@CanTERRA]

My favourite game of all time is FF7 which Im obsessed about since 2020 when I got into it with the remake, my 2nd and 3rd favourite games are ff6 and ff10 but this is my favourite battle theme of the entire series despite me just recently getting into ff9 myself; I cant believe I never heard how good this game is from ANYONE before

[@NoName-md6fd]

Basically OG FF7 happened with a strong nature vs sci fi theme, departing heavily from the dungeon and dragons roots and then overshadowed every other FF, especially FF8. So by FF9, the playstation 1 is on it's end of life and squaresoft decided to go back to the roots, (literally, every single character is based off their FF1 counterpart) and we were like : where the heck is the sci fi theme ?

[@CanTERRA]

@@NoName-md6fd Im glad they did that, thats what makes ff9 so great

[@sickasianchild]

0:45 so good

[@MarxasThomas]

0:50 I get goosebumps, I don't know why.

[@lordsesshomaru3979]

FFXVI brought me back to classic themes

[@matthagen67]

Same. XVI has the most "Final Fantasy" (adjective) plot and atmosphere since IX.

[@Thorfinn96]

when this played during battle with the knights in the stage play i got so hype

[@RyanEX2000]

The only complaint I could level at FF9 was how they teased the concept of team up attacks with Vivi and Steiner that went nowhere afterwards.

[@whYLiE09]

I was late to work and played this in my car. I've never gotten to work so fast in my life

[@ajilano7753]

Listening to this at the gym right now. I feel like i can lift heavier weights

[@JoshuaEpperson69]

I love they developed this in Oahu. This is the slickest battle song of the series. Try surfing with this some day it will change your life I promise

[@callahaine100]

I'm not really a fan of FF IX but I gotta admit its battle theme is my favourite. It just makes every spell , every special move so satisfying

[@zeldalink2394]

I feel like I’m in a dream listening to this!:)

[@kimmcleod5368]

FF9 was so underrated!

[@ADcrackerjack]

what do you mean? it's the highest rated FF game on metacritic ever...

[@Nodnarb59]

​@@ADcrackerjack Not many people played it, because it was released right before the transition between PS2. PS2 was announced before this was dropped so people were waiting for the PS2 to buy PS games, so it was passed on.

[@ADcrackerjack]

@@Nodnarb59 VII, IX & X are masterpieces. I love VIII too, but it’s not the best.

[@pandaman1331]

FFIX isn't my favorite game of the FF franchise. Though it's been a very long time since I last played it. But this battle theme just slaps hard. That alone makes me want to give the game a try again.

[@INergalI]

9 and 10 have the best ones 🎶!

[@JettzCG]

If they ever remake this (as the same game) they gotta make the battle flow like 10-2 where multiple characters can do actions at the same time looool. Either that or trim down the length of ALL animations by half to 2 thirds

[@L.LoudisThemanwiththeplan]
