[Xenoblade BGM] Masterpieces and Popular Tracks from the Xenoblade Series (21–30)
To the Final BattleACE+
This is the track that plays when you enter the final dungeon.
Many people must have felt their hearts swell as the grand BGM begins the moment the gate opens.
Just listening to it gets you pumped up.
The piece was created by ACE, a two-person music unit consisting of Tomori Kudo and CHiCO.
In Xenoblade, under the name ACE+, they worked together with Kenji Hiramatsu and others to handle the music for various scenes.
a battle we can’t back down fromShimomura Yoko / Narita Tsutomu
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.
Imperial Capital AgnilataACE+
This track is the BGM that played in the in-game area “Imperial Capital Agnilata.” The music changes between day and night, and this one is the daytime BGM.
It has a calm and warm feel.
Since the Imperial Capital Agnilata is an area with quite a few gameplay challenges, they may have chosen BGM like this that you won’t get tired of even after listening for a long time.
Saihate VillageKiyota Manami
Village and town themes in games are often so comforting, aren’t they? This track is no exception—it’s very soothing.
It has that calm, coming-home-to-your-parents’ house kind of feeling.
There’s a strong sense of security, and I can picture you as the player really relaxing and taking a deep breath.
It has a slightly folk-like vibe and feels very reassuring.
Doesn’t it make you feel as if you’re being gently rocked in a cradle?
Escape Pod CampKiyota Manami
This is the BGM used in the “Escape Pod Camp” area on the Bionis’ Leg.
The sound balances warmth and poignancy, and the moderate tempo makes it something you can listen to endlessly without getting bored.
Since the Escape Pod Camp is often a place where you end up spending a lot of time, the track was likely made to be enjoyable on repeat.
It’s also perfect as background music for studying or other tasks.
Valak Snowy Mountains / NightACE+
Even if you’ve never played Xenoblade, listening to this track will probably conjure up a bleak, snowy mountain landscape.
Snowy mountains at night are pretty dangerous, not just in games but in real life too.
Maybe that’s why the whole piece feels so tense.
I get the sense the music contains elements of nature’s power—the danger, the fragility, all of that.
Makna ForestKiyota Manami
As the title suggests, it’s a track brimming with wildness.
This game has a lot of grim scenes, but I remember this one piece being strangely soothing.
It’s such a calming song.
The percussion nicely evokes a primitive atmosphere, while the piano, in contrast, gives it a touch of civilization.
