FINAL FANTASY Composer Nobuo Uematsu Doubts He Can Score Entire Game

Nobuo Uematsu, the legendary composer renowned for his work on the Final Fantasy series, has expressed that he is unlikely to compose the full soundtrack for a game again. Citing physical and mental demands, Uematsu prefers to focus on smaller passion projects and his band. While he has contributed the theme song for the upcoming Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and had involvement in the Final Fantasy 7 Remake, he will not be handling the entire score. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, the second installment in the remake of the classic RPG, releases on February 29 and is available on PlayStation 5, continuing the adventure beyond the city of Midgar into the open world.

No, Nobuo Uematsu does not see himself composing the full soundtrack for future games due to the extensive time commitment and the physical and mental strain involved.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is part of the remake project revisiting the original Final Fantasy 7, which was first released in 1997. The game is famous for revolutionizing the RPG genre with its deep narrative, memorable characters, and innovative gameplay mechanics. Uematsu's music has been a hallmark of the series, adding to its iconic status. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth aims to recreate and expand upon the original story and experience in a modern gaming context, promising to deliver both nostalgia and new excitement for fans and newcomers alike.
