Final Fantasy XVI OST - Eikon Boss Fight 

Please support the composer. You can buy the soundtrack directly from Square-Enix: gb.store.square-enix-games.com/final-fantasy-xvi-original-soundtrack

Soken a man so legendary that Cancer couldn’t even stop him from making amazing music

Spoilers ahead! That moment when Clive fully tells Hugo that it was him who killed Benedikta. No trying to hide it, no shifting blame away from himself, just a full on "I did what Cid would not." Clive is not a typical protagonist, and that scene proved it

Hoping Soken gets the industry wide recognition he deserves now.

Torgal was the true MVP of the fight saves your life twice even all wounded after that aerial blast attack come back into the fight to assist clive again in battle what a loyal dog!!!

This has to win the best music award at the game awards, so many AMAZING tracks in this game. They went hard for FF16 just as they did for FF7 Remake.

2:15 So bold to slow the music down in a boss fight but it works so well and I love it so much

I love the timing at 1:51 when Benedikta looks at the camera and the choir starts

The demo on its own is already soundtrack of the year. Cannot imagine what they have in store for the final release...

0:00 FFXVI - "To Sail Forbidden Seas" 0:30 Eurus, Caecias, Thrascias, Zephyrus Meses, Notos, Lips, Apheliotes 0:39 Oceanus! Tempest neverending O Tartarus! Drowning, underneath the waves! Cloud and squall and gale and hurricane Drown in darkness ne'er to breathe again 1:14 Douse the sails, batten down! See the waves, feel the wind rising! Strike the spars, go below! Descend! 1:51 Fork-flamed fire, thunder-cloven Mountains climb, voids for vales Hither, yon, tossed Over and under Cling to the key till the tides turn! 2:36 Running onward, all together now! Sweep the stormclouds from your blackened brow! Fall to, yarely! Heigh, hearts cheerily! Dance, white water, and sing, skies! Burst your wind with us! --- So I looked it up: "Eurus, Caecias, Thrascias, Zephyrus, Meses, Notos, Lips, and Apheliotes refer to the classical compass winds for the points of geographic direction and orientation (respectively Southeast, Northeast, North-northwest, West, North-northeast, South, Southwest and East), in association with the winds as conceived of by the ancient Greeks."

I love how every time this song plays you really feel like you are fighting someone incredibly powerful, and this will be no easy fight. Really worthy of being the Eikon's boss fight theme tbh

2:17 is my favorite part of the song. It’s so damn beautiful it breaks my heart.

Sokken is the Final Fantasy. He has been battling cancer and he's getting the upper hand. Truly inspiring. Both him and his music. I can feel the ambition and defiant energy the ost exudes. It embodies the attitude of the hero, even when facing impending doom it manages to radiate the might of someone that still remains confident in his abilities. Sokken has my gratitude for being able to create such fantastic score.

Jesus that choir coming in at 1:15 and 1:51 really elevated this ost to a new peak! Sokken’s outdone himself again!

One of the best OST's I've heard recently. BEAUTIFUL.

What a change of pace at 2:16. My goodness

This song is probably one of my favorites so far from FFXVI

It's the best FF OST yet, and I'll die on that hill as a boomer listening to Celes theme shedding a tear for what used to be. This game is a masterpiece.

Broo the dog attack sequence had me off my chair!

this game has been the most fun I've had VSing bosses in such a long time, with this soundtrack to boot, absolutely fanstastic. What a blast

Damn it, 1:32 is SO GOOD, I can't even describe how much I like that part onwards

BEST TRACK! I liked this one since it was showcased in the previews. It has an amazing building and the choir is really epic.

No wonder they won the Best music and score award 2023..soken you did it 🎉🎉

1:34 IT'S SO GOOD

Honestly this probably one the best boss theme I ever heard, this need to win best Ost for the game awards

Music aside, the fact that Titan's attacks require perfect timing for maximum devestation looks so much fun. I legit said "BAWM!" when I saw you execute it perfectly at 5:28. In other words, I need a PS5. Yesterday.

The first time I played this part the 2:18 part played right when Torgal came back into the fight and it made it 1000x more epic and a more fun experience for me

This type of song plays on your head long after boss fight is over. Epic

"Now, die!" I didn't feel the real power of this theme until Clive and Kupka screamed at each other, just the mutal anger and hate there made the ost hit so much harder, still one of my favorite fights, even if it wasn't as much of a spectacle as others

the whole song is amazing, but the section from 2:16 to 2:56 is ULTRA amazing

I’m a classically trained musician and have been a professional in the field for years. This is some of the most bad ass, beautiful, powerful music I’ve ever heard from the gaming industry. It is so unbelievably satisfying and I am obsessed with the FF16 battle motif. How could you not feel just utterly inspired by this.

One of the best gaming tracks ever made. This has to win awards

Man absolute chills playing this fight and this masterpiece starts playing

This part of the song (1:13) is living rent free on my head, sounds like a desperate struggle what went out of control. And i'm sad i won't be able to play this game, but anyway, enjoy it.

This game is one year old already? Time flies..

This game is going to be one hell of a ride. If the demo is like this I can't imagine what the complete game is going to be like.

My ears and my brain are extremely delighted by this. Thanks a lot Soken-Sama.

LOVE THIS SONG

Love the incorporation of the main battle theme at 2:15, gives it a calm before the storm vibe and reminds me of Beethoven's Pastorale.

Demo was lit. Loved this fight and the music makes it feel 100 times more epic

You have no idea how hype I was to first hear this theme, I got literal chills and just bopped my head while kickin ass

I am so impressed by this game it's hard to believe I doubted it

This one is truly amazing

SERIOUSLY ?! AN ADVERTISING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE EPICNESS ?!?!?!?!?! 1:48

It’s games like this that just spark that feeling that those involved in it where enjoying themselves and where passionate about it, beautiful…

I like how evil and dark it starts off, but then it gets mellow and lighthearted. I guess this song is like Benedicta being a complex villain character that has good intentions.

The description 💀

Beat it today...I will say this is one of my favorite games

2:35 This part is GOD

This track is the best track ever on all final fantasy games. This track gives me goosebumps.

As someone who has never played a final fantasy game before, i'm happy i decided to pick this one up at launch and had it on my radar. Truly a unique gaming experience for me. I very much look forward to checking out the rest of the series.

1:51 goosebumps everywhere, man. Soken is a fucking genius

Need an official release of all the versions.

She looks striking to Zydan from ff9. This games demo Blew me away and I am already sold on this game. I can not wait!! What a soundtrack

This soundtrack gave a whole new feeling to boss battles. Wow!

what a fantastic composition. can’t wait to hear the rest of the tracks.

Wish I could get a whole song of just that slow string section, because its just amazing.

Out of all of the video games I played, this game has the best story and music out of all I have played.🍷🗿

I’ve played almost every FF since 7 and I gotta say this is one of the greatest boss battle themes I’ve ever heard. Feels like music literal GODS would fight to!!!

Just played the demo on PC and oh my lord, this game it just filled with the setpieces that I feel like I would come up with when I was a kid playing make believe. I feel so vindicated, my childhood self is jumping for joy inside me. Funny thing is that I was very much inspired by the FF13 games too so it all comes full circle.

such an amazing battle theme. goosebumps all the way. Omfg

Love this game, some of the best boss fights ive had in years, banger osts like this one and really nice gameplay

I have tears of joy right now listening to this and knowing that many more can now experience this level of adrenaline and epicness I’ve only personally felt in most Final Fantasy 14 Primal/Savage and Ultimate fights 7:21

THIS FUCKING GAME AND THE INCREDIBLE SONGS IN IT

This boss fight was soooooo fire.

AND HERE COMES TORGAL WITH THE RKO OUT OF NOWHERE!

Just like that this music already gives me goosebumps, but in game, with enormous Ikons going at eachother with nothing held back... pure, unbelievable epicness! This game and its music are incredible!

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG THANKS A LOTTTTT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This such a good song! I can’t stop listening to it! Listen to this while In your car 🚗 and turn the volume all the way up! 1:35

This is such a banger!

The best theme i have heard in years. Soken is a beast!

God this theme is incredible, can't wait for launchhhh

Just finished the fight, got on RU-vid and hunted around for this. Will be humming 2:15 for a week now :). The change of pace with the cinematic dodge sequence was perfect.

Game 8/10 Music 134/10

Anyone else's soul ascends when 2:16 hits?

This song is a fucking masterpiece

The soundtrack of this game is perfect

海外の人にもそけん氏リスペクトされてるみたいで嬉しい。

In case you are looking for this song in the soundtrack or the orchestrion roll in FF14, it is called "To Sail Forbidden Seas".

"It is time you learned... what becomes of those who _dare_ to cross me!" "Cross you?! I'll _kill_ you!"

This song is incredible and one of the best boss fight songs in the history of video games.

Thank you for the upload

Thank you maestro Soken, you're a great composer. I hope you are in better health.

This is my favorite OST I’ve ever had the pleasure and honor of listening to ❤

as someone who is playing through ffxvi and is just finished shadowbringers soken has grown so much as a composer just over the course of that game so seeing him really just unleash his true power for ffxvi is fucking awesome

That explosion of the choir at 1:51 is so fucking epic Jesus Christ

One of the longest and entertaining boss fights I experienced in a while.

That moment when you realize this was Soken's warmup.

1:15 is truly the best part of this music! Seeing the giant crystal of the Dominion slowly transforming into a giant blooming flower is one greatest cutscenes I have seen in any video game!

1:34 - 2:16 is what we all came here for

2:16 This part is very cool !! My favorite the theme😊

This Game will be so Nostalgic in couple of year.

this music turns itself into a godly rhythm of danger and excitement

This game has one of the best soundtracks i‘ve ever heard. This one, greatwood, ascension and away are the best tracks so far for me :)

Bro this fight was crazy especially with the music

This Soundtrack man goossebumpssssss

1:30 the moment when the cristal start to get the form of a flower in Bahamut fight. MOST EPIC BOSS FIGHT EVER!

Finally found this without voices. Thank you very much. 😊

2:15 I finally found it. Stuck in my head forever and I couldn't remember it was from.

The battles were so epic omg
