These lights, which are available with select tickets from the Square Enix e-STORE in Japan, feature 12 color patterns. If purchased, someone can have them synchronize with the performance.

Arnie Roth, known for his work on Distant Worlds, will conduct the Japanese tour, with performances in Osaka and Kanagawa featuring the Osaka Symphony Orchestra and the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra. The concerts will include game scenes projected on a large screen, enhancing the atmosphere.

Tickets will be distributed through a lottery system, with applications open from May 30, 2024 to June 9, 2024. Winners will be notified on June 17, 2024.
