[Highest Audio Quality/Granblue] With Lyrics: 'New World Order' — Arcarum: The World / The World / BGM / OST [Granblue Fantasy]

Granblue Fantasy is a game set in a fantastical world where you journey toward a legendary island.

When battling on islands floating in the sky, a fired-up soundtrack is essential.

New World Order, composed by Tsutomu Narita, is a rock number that plays during fights against the foes known as the Arcarum series.

The interplay of the grand orchestral sound is fantastic.

The male and female twin vocals boost the player’s excitement and give you the courage to take on formidable enemies.

It’s a song that makes you empathize with characters throwing themselves into fierce battles—and makes you want to dash forward yourself.

Wings of black and silverNarita Tsutomu2rank/position

[Granblue] Stella Magna / Fubito Endo / Proto Bahamut Battle “Wings of Black and Silver” from GRANBLUE FANTASY ORCHESTRA – SYMPHONY IN BLUE

Granblue Fantasy, an RPG that colors the tale of the skies.

This is the BGM that played during the Proto Bahamut battle.

Composed by Tsutomu Narita, the game is renowned for its dramatic presentation where battle progression and music are perfectly synchronized.

The moment when the somber tone of the opening shifts—once the boss’s HP drops below half—into an intense, vocal-infused track as the restraints come off is pure goosebumps.

In the final phase, the chorus lining up exactly with the timing of the instant-death move “The Great Catastrophe” created a legendary experience blending despair and exhilaration.

It’s a masterpiece etched deeply into the memories of many skyfarers.

Xenoblade OST – Prologue A

This is the BGM used in the first half of Xenoblade’s opening cinematic.

It’s crafted with a grand tone that matches the game’s world, so I imagine many listeners felt excited about what kind of journey was about to begin.

The orchestral sound has a powerful, almost Hollywood-like quality.

It’s a track that even people who haven’t played Xenoblade can enjoy.

Xenoblade OST – Prologue B

This is the BGM that starts playing right after the opening battle scene ends.

After an intense fight against waves of seemingly endless enemies, this track kicks in and the game’s title appears.

I feel like there weren’t many games that revealed their titles this stylishly.

Maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but that’s how memorable the opening sequence was.

Xenoblade Studio Live Footage “Main Theme”

This is the piece that plays on Xenoblade’s title screen.

It was composed by Yoko Shimomura, a musician from Hyogo Prefecture.

It begins with a beautiful piano tone and builds more and more toward the latter half, conveying the grand scale of Xenoblade’s world.

Although it only plays once in the game, it serves as the BGM for an important event, so many of you may find it has left a lasting impression.

Xenoblade OST – Unfinished Battle

This is the BGM that plays when Dunban, one of the main characters in Xenoblade, joins the party.

It only plays at that moment, but because of the intensity of the scene it leaves a strong impression and is one of the most popular tracks among fans.

It was composed by Yoko Shimomura and ACE+ (Kenji Hiramatsu, Tomori Kudo, and CHiCO).

Hearing it brings to mind the image of the Black Face alongside Dunban.

Xenoblade OST – Epilogue

It’s a single track that makes you want to say, “Ah, it’s really ending…” and moves you to tears.

If you’ve played the game, you might know the feeling—haven’t there been times when you think, “I don’t want this game to end!!”? This is the kind of song that makes you feel it was that good of a game.

Great works always come with great music, don’t they?

Dominion Black DragonNarita Tsutomu8rank/position

Granblue Fantasy - Dantalion Battle BGM (Dominion Black Dragon)

The BGM used in the battle against Dantalion, the boss of the in-game event “Persona 5: Thievery in Blue.” It’s a bold, Persona-style arrangement of “Wings of Black and Silver,” the Proto Bahamut battle theme, so if you’re familiar with that track, you’ll likely enjoy this even more.

The singer is the singer-songwriter Taro Kobayashi.

Granblue Fantasy OST Lyria – New World Order (The World BGM)

It’s a song for a character named Luria, and I was amazed by how incredible the voice actor’s singing is.

These days, voice actors are all so good at singing, aren’t they? I heard it appears in a flashback in the Blue Girl arc, and if you haven’t played it, you might be wondering what kind of flashback it is.

Maybe it’s a scene that really enhances the story! It’s a very polished and cool track.

[Granblue Fantasy] 'Parade’s Lust' Lyric Video

The BGM used in the Avatarr Belial battle from the limited-time in-game scenario event “000 What Makes the Sky Blue Part III.” It’s a cool rock track with English lyrics, and I bet many players found themselves captivated by it while playing.

The vocalist is singer-songwriter Taro Kobayashi, who has also performed several other in-game BGMs.
