Final Fantasy VII Rebirth OST - Vs. Tseng & Elena

[@SoraWorkerDrone]

This is what I wanted to see in this battle: Tseng finally seeing how he fights for the first time in 27 years.

[@Hugsloth]

And I immediately understood why he doesn't usually get involved when he 1frame stomped me with a synchronized axe kick to the face-- because he's on a whole other level from his subordinates.

[@dragonfable66]

@@Hugslothwell, he’s their leader for a reason

[@JoshArtisto]

He was beatin my ass too. Him and Rufus gave me the most trouble

[@mymanjohan5101]

He was mixing me up ngl 😂

[@12kidcat]

IT WAS YOU WHO MANIFESTER IT

[@rasdan1192]

Just realized that each turk has their instrument Reno: Electric Guitar and Drums Rude: Bass and Drums Elena: Piano Accompaniment Tseng: Sax, accompanied by Fast Jazz Drums

[@Partinaire]

It’s so cool you were able to pinpoint this!

[@N..O]

Imagine the theme if all 4 fought us together

[@XanderIsALoser]

@@N..OCould totally happen in Part 3!

[@ladariustownsel5552]

Yeah now that you mentioned it, it make the Turks feel like Yakuza than a task force.

[@RealCFZ]

I’m glad I’m not the only one that noticed this. Especially Tseng too.

[@Rarchieo]

Not only was finally fighting Tseng a treat, the music was fantastic too.

[@SoraWorkerDrone]

Yeah, Tseng really is not just all talk. Plus this song really gives me strong Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and 3 vibes.

[@eugostodedub]

Between timeline shenanigans, literal magic and all the crazy stuff that happens in this game, I have to say that Tseng and Elena doing a warmup routine in sync, doing the Akuma stance, and proceeding to fight in perfect harmony to this theme was one of my top 5 hypest moments in FF7 Rebirth.

[@Fall-oo6mt]

When I saw that we would fight Tseng I was like 🤯🤯🤯 HOLY SHIIIIT FINALLY A TSENG BOSS FIGHT AFTER 27 YEARS WTFFFF and then I proceeded to get even more flabbergasted at every single part of the fight

[@Incog2k6]

All of us during the OG FF7: "No fight against Tseng? He must be a bureaucrat only then. What a pushover!" Tseng in this game: "lol no"

[@pyromaniacforhire]

Beats ass then pulls out the blickey and starts bustin caps.

[@dinorex3464]

The fight that cemented Tseng as one of the coolest characters in FF7. The epitome of _"Just because I don't fight it doesn't mean I don't know how to."_

[@brycetheoddball]

This song slapped so hard in the temple

[@UnwarrantedThoughts]

WE MAKING IT TO THE PROMISED LAND WITH THIS ONE 🗣️🔥🔥

[@FOXY_SPHYNX]

FACTS 🔥🔥🔥

[@spiralgodking9877]

WE'RE GOING TO THE GOLDEN COUNTRY WITH THIS ONE~!!!🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥

[@BassicRivers]

HAHA xenoblade reference, love to see it!

[@theyouth2000]

The soundtrack is da bomb! And seeing Tseng and Elena fighting together in sync... was blown away! Tseng is no pushover, glad to have finally seen him in action.

[@barrycruz5656]

After 27 years since his debut, we finally get to see Tseng get his hands dirty.

[@pyromaniacforhire]

And, goddamn can he stomp a mfer out with little effort.

[@matombler3009]

Best song in the entire game. Ungodly levels of musicianship happening across bass guitar, drums and keys - and that’s without mentioning the sax!

[@verixforgotten1121]

The first time we ever fight Tseng

[@BarretTheImmaculate]

Technically you can fight him in the original Ever Crisis. Not the current mobile gacha game, but the old Ever Crisis for flip phones. He was a tutorial boss.

[@night104]

​@@BarretTheImmaculateI think you mean Before Crisis

[@BarretTheImmaculate]

@@night104 Oh yeah

[@ThatGuyInTheBack007]

And he wasn't a pushover either too. He's got some + frames on his moves.

[@mmking9999]

I would've guessed this track was something from Xenoblade DLC, not FF7 Rebirth. SO good.

[@izukkai5429]

We're returning to Torna with these two

[@ancientazem]

Eyyyy glad I wasn't the only one to notice the similarities! Honestly this isn't even the only track that reminds me Xenoblade's OST but it's definitely one of the more prominent ones to do so 😅

[@Cyndillquil]

Not just Torna, but also Future Connected and Redeemed as well

[@izukkai5429]

yup post-torna vibes in general@@Cyndillquil

[@cyber_baudelaire9962]

Omg I wasn't the only one to notice !!! The piano at the beggining of the final phase, the choir and strings just after... Truly a masterpiece

[@spiralgodking9877]

WE'RE GOING TO THE GOLDEN COUNTRY WITH THIS ONE~!!!🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥

[@Uri_Mercury]

Its between this, and Roche's jazz band fight music! This game FED Tf out of us! Tseng finally stepping in to fight was NOT on my 2024 bingo card. And he did NOT disappoint! We SEE why he's the boss!

[@testamentx23]

I was genuinely stunned hearing this track for the first time😭

[@NeoncloudFF]

In an already out-of-control soundtrack, this just cements that the folks at the music team at Square are on a WHOLE OTHER LEVEL

[@JoshArtisto]

This might be my favorite song in the game. It is SO groovy. I paused for like 5 minutes just to listen

[@AlguienCualquieraDelMundo]

Probably my favourite banger from the game

[@GameQuoter]

I feel now like at some point in part 3, this song will be topped with a "fighting all 4 Turks" song

[@CrazyNerdSarah]

That would be fun! One of the things that I would think would be difficult as heck but so much fun would be fighting Tseng, Elena, Reno, Rude and Rufus all at either the same time or not.

[@coolfish420]

The Omega Turk's Theme

[@the_oc_maniac8972]

The only way I see this happening is in the return to Midgar, in the train track fight.

[@EmpireAnts42]

​@@the_oc_maniac8972Or they could just add more Turks scenes, which i am 100% in favour of

[@metropolis-xu4nr]

@@the_oc_maniac8972 that should be the one. It was so epic in the original when you fight all 3 at the same time that it would be smart to top it with all 4. Or like the guy above me said, just add more Turks scenes/fights! :D

[@levantine1978]

This fight theme was a huge surprise. The Turks' glow up in Rebirth was real.

[@Hugsloth]

And the scariest part is that they're not even enhanced. No Hojo tampering, either. They're just insanely strong, well-trained normal people.

[@tsukuneboy]

They could be enhanced with materia......

[@Hugsloth]

@@tsukuneboyYeah, but somehow they are on par in strength with SOLDIERs without any genetic tampering or Mako conditioning, which makes them rather impressive.

[@tsukuneboy]

@@Hugsloth that's every party too in our protagonists team except Cloud no? (Well Vincent maybe enhanced in par with a weapon even)

[@dragonfable66]

@@Hugslothpretty sure they have basic mako infusion as shown by Reno from remake

[@MaxMarriner]

Tseng is so cool I didn't even realize this was his first-ever battle

[@leonardwashington7979]

This theme is too dope, especially the keys at 4:49 🥶

[@Thedrewster9194]

The first time we fight tseng accompanied by a peak track? Yeah I’m thinking this is GOTY

[@3dsknight18]

Was waiting for someone to finally upload this just to hear the first phase

[@Dzzy123]

One of the best boss themes in the entire game!

[@thebigw1231]

Finally Someone Posted this Awesome Soundtrack.

[@andresashura5550]

I love your videos, putting when they change phases is a big W

[@chiefcombo3900]

Im glad that you can juggle the human bosses in this game and send them flying across the world like your party can be, they made the fights against them absolutely fun.

[@DannyPotato]

I love the shinra theme in this.

[@HamzaAliGhallu]

The theme in the final phase pure chills😮😮

[@ericcampo2711]

The music was amazing

[@sondowultimate]

Man to be honest this is the best rendition of the Turks theme

[@annaangelic2318]

Immediate favorite

[@Fall-oo6mt]

One of the best moments in the entire game

[@rsoxboy]

Damn good stuff sir. Thanks for the upload.

[@joshdiesel86]

Dope song, definitely added it to my MP3 list. That boy Tseng ain't no punk b****, he can throw some hands and fight.

[@chiefakachi2296]

This is how you remake a game. I had so much fun during this battle, it was challenging and the music made it tolerable

[@spenguin5179]

sounds like something you'd hear from Xenoblade (specifically Torna the golden country)

[@kei7540]

You know what you're right

[@SoraWorkerDrone]

That what I was thinking, this really has Xenoblade Chronicles like vibes.

[@realroccodev]

Part 2 sounds straight out of Future Redeemed ngl

[@azazel166]

I see where Oda got the inspiration for CP9.

[@JKMlive]

Thinking about it now FF7 and One piece have a lot in common

[@Incog2k6]

Not only Oda was clearly inspired by this game. Look at Kishimoto (Cloud/Minato, Vincent/Madara) or Kubo (the sizes of Zangetsu is like Buster sword).

[@alexandrostype-2211]

1:21 insane drumming, it reminds me of "Herbie Hancock - Actual Proof". Take inspiration from music legends, and naturally You will have an incredible song. But this was not enough for these Square Enix composers, they had to add epic choirs to the mix, straight from Heroic fantasy movies. This is one of the most groundbreaking song I have heard in a long time. Video game music is really where You can find the most inventive songs, when meanwhile, music as an art, struggles to reinvent itself

[@ericcampo2711]

That drumming is so precise I didn’t even hear it lol

[@JEWong47]

Major Xenoblade vibes from this one. Fogbeast battle, specifically. Banger 🔥

[@dj_to_the_ej]

This flows quite well into that one, surprisingly the same key too!

[@ValAllenSamonte]

Each Turk has its own elemental weakness based on their hair: 1. Reno - Red Hair - Fire 2. Elena - Yellow Hair - Lightning 3. Rude - No Hair - Wind (LOOOL) Just Kidding. Tseng is weak against Ice.

[@maplemaple2273]

Think about it though, it matches their personalities. Reno is Hot Headed, so Fire. Rude goes with the Flow, so Wind. Elena is Energetic, Thunder. Tseng is cool and collected, Ice.

[@ValAllenSamonte]

@@maplemaple2273 OH YOU ARE RIGHT. nice catch!

[@medigoomnis]

Elena's is likely a nod to her clone in Kingdom Hearts.

[@Phrame1]

He has black hair, and he's weak to Ice... so you know, like... Black Ice

[@Winter0263]

sounds like a KOF team theme

[@spiralgodking9877]

Fellow Leona enjoyer~!!!💙💙💙👍

[@FOXY_SPHYNX]

This whole fight had me on edge. The music in this game as competing with Harbinger of fate from Remake. HOLY!!

[@ElBloqueImperial]

This might be my favorite boss fight in the entire game, and this theme is one of the reasons why!

[@JackieOwl94]

I knew kingdom hearts before I was old enough to play Final Fantasy VII, so all I see is a Larxene and Saïx fight.

[@randallmiddleton5985]

This duo theme is the better one imo ...shoulda went more hard on the piano on rude Elena's theme but this has that bombastic cowboy bebop feel ! Love it!

[@Cyndillquil]

The sac in Phase 2 is on crack and I’m all for it

[@terazyn]

Best battle theme in the entire game.

[@hillroadbrand]

Gilgamesh theme entered the chat

[@myndzye2025]

Did I miss Yoko Kanno’s name in the credits for this banger? Straight out of Cowboy Bebop, just like some of Yuffie’s battle themes from Intergrade. GOTY

[@Nigel222]

Most unexpected boss fight in the game.

[@Jasonbowgaming]

Damn epic as shit is like listening to jazz fusion Rock music definitely one of the best boss music I ever listen too

[@repulser93]

That phase transition scene… am I the only one getting Yakuza flashbacks?

[@sentientmonke8265]

Black fancy suits, power auras surrounding them, same transition style as the game, I can see these two in a Yakuza game as Daidoji agents for sure.

[@repulser93]

@@sentientmonke8265 And now I'm getting the lovely mental image of Tifa performing a Tiger Drop on either Scarlet or Sephiroth.

[@myon9431]

Tseng is hot asf

[@Incog2k6]

Elena, in particular, agrees with you 😂.

[@GamesCloud-GC]

Goty History, Goty Rpg, Goty Soundtrack, Game of the Year!!!

[@bazokarpg1999]

I wonder if Tseng will join for the final fight in part 3 or will he be too injured to join in

[@M08Xrd]

I honestly could not care less about these two as characters, but man, this fight was awesome and that music oh boy

[@JoFlo93]

I had to leave it on the Assess screen for a minute cause I was jamming so hard

Feels like I'm playing Virtual Fighter or something

Tseng about to Coltrane Giant Step over Avalanche

[@lorenzopiscosi9566]

This has hard metal slug vibes! 😮

[@calebmartinez8336]

Still think that reno is the hardest turk to take down. I was expecting Tseng to give me some issues but he was easier than rude and reno

[@Rutawind]

Was nice to see the B Team handle the Turks without Cloud's help

[@joemil]

This theme hit so hard, I wanted *them* to win. Can we join the Turks please?

[@AcappellaGamer]

This is da shizzzz

[@saasaa-x3c]

Elena is so cute and sexy

[@spiralgodking9877]

Yuffie's cuter and sexier.

[@Humi-Maaja]

I got absolutely destroyed by every Turks fight Elena claim that they are the strongest duo I destroyed them I guess Rude is just the real carry

[@joshuayung5158]

Rude is the only one who learned to block. The Elena/tseng combo is hard to hit and does good damage but you can basically end the fight instantly in phase 2 (on normal) with a synergy ability into LB into synergy ability, since their formation is too tight and gets splash damaged and the synergy skills have great (perfect?) tracking

[@78proto]

No, seriously, this track is incredible. Nobuo Uematsu is THE guy!

[@medigoomnis]

I think they really bungled this fight design...literally got a flawless victory with Yuffie while barely trying, just pick an elemental weakness and target one down, dodge roll to the side whenever they're moving. I was so disappointed they never did anything more or interesting, love Tseng, really wanted something epic in a Turk fashion and the music was ok (another track that feels a little out of place but not as bad as Disney Jungle Adventure in Gongaga), but ultra owned by a Yuffie I'd previously neglected the whole game lol...

[@TigraSpartan]

Big Blue Giant vibes!!!❤
