FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 ▬ Last Hunter (Battle Theme)

[stinkypitz0005]

God the rock is throwing me off, I want more violin!

[Dennarai]

I really like the violin part but I feel the cheesy rock beginning is really annoying.

[Tavanasmuse]

this battle music on the demo gets tiring after a while of leveling up different monsters lol >.< I liked it then disliked it lol

[imrandaredevil666]

Sexy...

[slowaldo022]

one word... EARGASM

[CheeseStickzZ]

Simply put, it's FUCKING EPIC. Guaranteed to give you a hype during those long battles; and with a more real-time battle system, pure win!

[iCloudii]

I love the violins, oh man ''Blinded By Light'' was awsome and so is this. Cant wait! :D

[basch71]

Is it just me or does this sound very Persona 2-ish? Not that it's a bad thing. It's pretty plus.

[Bulbaboy]

@basch71 Definitely agree with you there, parts of it remind me of the random battle theme from P2, actually

[Dasten]

@basch71 It does! Good find there lad.

[aricente]

So this is just the battle theme... holy fuck then whats the boss theme o.o

[Magemus0]

Enter: BEAST MODE :D

[SuperShikatem]

I can already feel the tedium.

[FeratAltun]

I prefer this battle theme !

[NGGAltair]

The start of the theme is what's the most important to me, seeing as the majority of the minor battles only take about 30 seconds anyway. And I absolutely love the start of this one! Didn't like the start of Blinded by Light very much, the violin part is great but it kicks in too late.

[liam860819]

I still think ''Blinded by Light'' is much better.

[harryKYR]

The church bells add a wow effect . Epic battle theme. Love the cello in the very beginning

[RCfan234]

I never though a volien and a guitar can make epic music

[terawyvenx]

this make an epic cellphone ringtone

[silvershot970]

0:28-0:41 build up to cello/violin/string instrument is <3

I initially didn't like the song because it didn't have the Blinded By Light feel in it. But now that I keep listening to it, it's actually nice. It sounds badass actually. Though I don't feel the epic violin thing build up thing like Blinded by Light in this song. I wonder what this song be named? I hope it'll sound cool too.

[MegaFFun]

I actually like it a lot better than Blinded by Light.

[Shelballs17]

Tambourine keeps the pace just right. Guitar makes it sound sooo badass. Love it!

[KKanji1979]

Song reminds me of Kingdom Valley themes, from Sonic the Hedgehog 06.

[RCfan234]

Love it I hope they have sabers edge still

[gabrielavilleta]

Good song, but is it me or does it lack a "climax"? It sounds the same all the way through.

[2tailedcat]

This is where it's at. I'll be back. I'm just gonna go preorder XIII-2

[zaqareemalcolm]

DAT VIOLIN

DAT GUITAR

I would love this as a battle theme. I especially also liked that cello build up in the beginning.

[crisiscoreffv2]

too aggressive at the start ... i mean , i dont wanna listen to that when im max level beating monsters in 5 sec XD

[dagga19k]

oh my god!!!! i've been looking for this one for sooooo long!!! ff13-2 is gonna be EPIC as ff13, and this battle theme is very very good!!!! is this the official version? where did you find it? do you have more official music of ff13-2?

anyway thank you so much!!!

[KJM0593]

This is mostly way too aggressive to be casual random encounter music. I like the track, I just don't think it suits it's purpose.

[narutolrd]

@KJM0593 I think it does. Its intent is to make the battle feel quicker and want you to finish it faster. Does its purpose as it sounds awesome, personallyy speaking.

[KJM0593]

@narutolrd I just think it would be better suited to a boss battle, or maybe hunts like in XIII. I think the track that plays during Lightning's battle against chaos Bahamut would be nicer as the main battle theme. Don't get me wrong, I do like this track, but hearing it over and over and over so often might just make me start to dislike it.

[narutolrd]

@KJM0593 i know what you mean. That's kinda what happened with XIII's theme for me. They overused it in the trailers x_x

[ashrakin]

DAT VIOLIN.....

I must say .. this is a pretty long battle theme. =]

[ashrakin]

DAT VIOLIN.....

[BigWillTheThrill]

Doesn't really grab me like Blinded by Light does, still pretty good though.

[silvershot970]

@BigWillTheThrill Trufax! :)

[JeremySheer]

it sounds like a frickin DIsnyeland parade and Smash bros!

[thedragoonknight]

@JeremySheer Of course you would say that xD

[thedragoonknight]

Nope, I don't like this at all.

[Ragnadave]

the part of 1:56 should the battle theme D:

the guitar is a little repetitive xD

[PixelNico]

I kind of realy like this one :o

[PrinceOF9Imagination]

wow, I'm already in love with ff13-2 :D

[PrinceOF9Imagination]

wow, I'm already in love with ff13-2 :D

[iCyFlaMeZ96]

This song reminds me of the ffvii boss theme /watch?v=eVBM3bX7xdw

[419FFFanForever]

The violine part is AWESOME! But the electric guitar parts kinda annoys me a little. But over all it's an AWESOME SONG!

[CaramelDaHampster]

Download link, now.

Or iTunes.

[Allforone234]

1:56 Starts the Epicness! :D Love dat Violin! and that be de dong sound they have through out the theme! :D

[WhiplashSL]

3 people don't know what the definition of "awesome" is.

[SibyNied]

Nothing can beat 'Blinded by Light!'

but it's awesome!!!

i like it^^

[yunapaloza]

Omg I actually love it! I want a download link!! :'O

[27anonym]

This is a really good battle theme, but seriously - nothing can be better than the violine part in "Blinded by Light".

[narutolrd]

@27anonym Sadly they overused it so I was tired of that the minute the game came.

[davonalite]

@27anonym of course not :D its too awesome

[iCyFlaMeZ96]

This song will make random battles 10x more enjoyable

[inscaraburire]

better than blinded by light.

[Rovas117]

Feels more like a Boss Battle theme, rather than the casual encounter music.

[Blibbles]

@Rovas117 You're right about that. It's funny though. One of the boss themes, if I'm not mistaken, has Shootie HG in it. xD He did the battle themes for Devil May Cry 4. It's so weird hearing him in this game.

[ArsenalReady]

Good battle theme, I especially like the electric guitar. But it still can't top Blinded by Light. Just no way in hell. You're not trying hard enough, Squeenix.

[DannielSquall100]

It really doesn't fit the magical atmosphere of Final Fantasy XIII games, and not a chance in hell that this is better than Blinded By Light.

[MrAxel]

The development into the melody is rather slow for a battle theme and the ending has too much filler (particularly from 3:04 - 3:17). Other than that I like the melody very much; I just thought it had more punch to it when it was used in the last trailer. I think it had something to do with the opening having more backing in the trailer, because when the strings kick in during this version they sound a little too bare.

[Xalvin90]

@MrAxel

If I remember correctly, the original Blinded by Light from FFXIII's demo had much longer built-up as well. It was much shorter in the final version. Hopefully they'd do the same in this, there's really too much filler in here.

[MrAxel]

@Xalvin90 I believe that's true. Still, even in its demo version, the length of Blinded By Light's buildup was mitigated and actually made enjoyable because the buildup was well-developed with complicating electric guitar, string, and percussion parts. Now that I think about it, perhaps the problem with this piece's buildup is that it doesn't have anything to make it interesting; it starts to buildup slightly with string, then backs away completely before attempting to dive back in.

[FlavioMarqwes]

This is a battle theme watch?v=zg0N3kCzywM

[Ragnadave]

@FlavioMarqwes

for you, i guess

[Marafont]

Shit, ff13 better!!!



[Darkestpuppet]

FINALLY *A*

[ReshiROM1]

I prefer Blinded by Light.

[Ragnadave]

HOLY !! omg i love it

the voices in the background ..... AMAZING!

[Sarutabaruta]

Very generic. Not bad or anything, but doesn't quite match up to previous battle themes.

[madapocket]

Ugh... way too boring. And the ending drags on and on.

I mean, it's okay but... jeez. Will it end already?

[FallenXSeraph]

@madapocket Surely if the song ended mid-battle it'd be a big "whuh?" moment.

[madapocket]

@FallenXSeraph What? No, it's just that a big part of the ending is so boring. This theme would've been much better without that part, just skip to the ending right away.

[emoerdbeerkeks]

I love this!

[SuperBlahmaster]

I really would have preferred the other song (Chaos Bahamut battle) as the battle theme, I could listen to that a billion times, whereas this might get grating.
