Fantasian Neo Dimension Composer Nobuo Uematsu’s Last Entire Game Soundtrack (Update)

Square Enix and Mistwalker shared a new video on the social media account for Fantasian Neo Dimension that confirmed it will be the last full game soundtrack composer Nobuo Uematsu worked on. He shared the news in the brief announcement. Uematsu later took to social media to confirm he isn’t completely retiring yet.

The reveal began with Uematsu confirming the more widespread version of Fantasian will release on December 5, 2024. Previously, it only appeared on Apple devices via the Apple Arcade subscription service. He followed that up with the statement, “This is my final project as a composer of video game music.” 

Here is the full video: 

In the updated statement, he noted there was a misunderstanding and he would only “cut back a bit” when it would come to composing for video games.

Nobuo Uematsu was tapped as the composer for the original Fantasian game, prior to his announcement that his last project will be the Fantasian Neo Dimension release. Prior to that, he worked on the FFVII Rebirth song “No Promises to Keep,” which is an Aerith theme. His music was included in the original FFVII Remake as well. Uematsu also worked on games like Square Enix’s Dungeon Encounters, FFXIV, and FFXV over the last few years, as well as Mistwalker’s Terra Wars and Terra Battle 2.

Fantasian Neo Dimension will appear on the Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on December 5, 2024. The previous version of the JRPG is immediately available on Apple devices like the iPad and Mac via Apple Arcade.
