This was the point where i fell completely in love with this game

this fight really gave an AoT feeling

Best final fantasy game ever made just loved every second of it doing my 3rd playthrough and clive is super overpowered ❤❤

This game was just asura’s wrath but in final fantasy style.

If Dragons where the original Fire-Bending Masters, Ifrit is Agni given physical form. 😎

This fight served a really good lore function, in showing just how ridiculously durable the Eikons are.

All the other battles are isolated or in places where it can’t be appreciated the amound of destruction they can bring. I liked it here, watching the forest getting ripped appart. Even Titan was in middle of the desert, so it wasn’t as clear despite being much larger.

2:45 is my favourite part it’s sounds like things are getting heated (pan intended)!

It took me a few listens to hear the Final Fantasy theme subtly added during the “Garuda” chant sections!
A very well done masterpiece by Soken!

Maybe im just stupid but I started playing 14 and 16 at around the same time and I was genuinely surprised that Clive’s eikon was Ifrit. He looks so different from the 14 version, I didn’t even recognize him.

The fact that this massive scale fight is comparatively weaker than the rest had me super excited for the rest of the game. Then Titan Lost happened and I was in awe.

The first minute of this song has been permanently stuck in my head for some time now.

Unfortunately I think Garuda got a bit of the short end of the stick, since she was spoiled along with her entire fight before the game came out, so she doesn’t leave such a lasting impression as if we went in blind, which is a shame because I think this fight stands up alongside all of the rest of the Eikons, it’s not lesser in any single way.

The final fantasy franchise has been saved.

I’m glad I’m not the only one attacking face first into Garuda’s wind spells. I felt like a complete idiot.

Lyrics:

Garuda
Garuda
Garuda
Garuda

Garuda
Garuda
Garuda
Garuda

On lightning dark
Did ride betrayal
Away her heart
she swathed in gale

Silently
Falling, falling
Finding fury,fury,
fire, fury,fury

Her breath a storn
to stir the heavens
a wrath forlorn
she turns to daemons

far, ever,
falling, falling
from redemption
to the end of …

Official lyrics:

Garuda
Garuda

Garuda

Garuda
Garuda

On lightning dark
Did ride betrayal
Away her heart
She swathed in gale

Silently
Falling, falling
Finding fury, fury
Fire and fury

Her breath a storm
To stir the heavens
A wreth forlorn
She turns to daemons

Far, ever
Falling, falling
From redemption
To the end of…

dude the first time playing this, I could feel the control vibrate with each footstep of Ifrit!, I felt like a hulking beast, but as soon as I witnessed it’s speed, Holy hell this game is just So good!.

1:50 – 2:18 is so good!

This fight really gives heavy vibe of eren attack titan vs female titan

I’ve never once touched into FF but must I say that successfully FF XVI inspired me not only touch into its lore but previous titles, this is how you successfully introduce others into previous works, newly FF fan right here, love the story, characters, world, music, and everything so far, it’s almost too perfect and as a hard fantasy fan I could not be happier, haven’t finish the story yet, masterpieces of sci-fiction like this should be enjoyed, after all you never play masterpiece twice for the first time. Titles like Dark Souls I, II, III, Elden Ring, Sekiro Shadows , Bloodborne, etc.. are part of that special place and FF just made itself part of it, amazingly done.. now let’s see what Armored Core will have as well, since that’s also amount one of me targets

0:54

While xbox dudes are rejoicing over the abk deal for old CoD games we enjoying masterpieces like this FF16

When I first heard the theme in game, I didn’t hear a hint of Garudas original theme in it. How come I could in this?

Ifrit is basically Eren Jager with MPs

the lyrics at 00:56 is literally “garudaaaa, garudaaaa, garudaaaaaaaaa”

Garuda’s so sexy bruh no cap

This is the pinnacle of classical music majors. You training your entire life to become part of the best orchestra to make music for AAA video games.

I knew I heard “Fallen Angel’s” rhythm in this song! Holy shit!

The new hellfire I just him not only crushing you but burning you to death 😅 FN savage!

You can really hear garuda’s theme from XIV in this one as well… niceeeeeeeeeee SOOOKKKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN

This theme reminds me so much of the Orbonne Monastery vibes from FFXIV – I’m here for it.

I love how they make Ifrit seem like at first glance he’d be just this big slow-moving hulking brute, and yet despite how his size may make him look like he’d be on the slower side, he is deceptively fast and agile while also being incredibly tough. It’s also nice how this time around they turned Ifrit into an absolute beast of a “summon”, considering the fact that he has usually been relegated to one of, if not *the* first summon you fight/obtain and thus winds up being one of the weaker summons. This version of Ifrit comes across as an absolute monster that even the likes of Bahamut would have to take very seriously.

6/10 btw

For a brief moment I thought I was listening to FF14’s Garuda theme. Love the nod @ 0:14 Soken never disappoints.

GOTY. Absolutely LOVE this game and this EPIC battle.

I am the one everyone fears, I am the master of fire and hell, everyone bows before me, I am Ifrit

i love being an FFXIV player so much

To be honest I don’t really like entire song… But god damn in my boss fight at 03:35 i heard this and that’s when it realised holy fuck this game is just getting started 🔥🙌🏻📈

Devil May fantasy 16

Bro the music is so good!!!!

Can’t wait to hear this one remixed and performed live at the game awards when this game takes Best Music.

No.

Sad past or no, she’s a killer who would destroy whatever or whomever she needed to in order to get ahead. She was a parasite and even when Cid tried to help her, she tried to kill him. She deserved the fate she was met with.

If i were the director, i would direct these sequences more towards populated area’s. Like that you have an even more sense of scale and how big these Eikons are.

Is it me or the whole game hints you at the most dangerous thing in the world , to be crushed literally by a boulder rock! It’s everywhere in the game !

I love how everything still has a majestic , dreamy but sense of near death pushing limit vibe due to the deeep dark chords . Omg such a blend of masterpiece

I hear you ff14 in the background, Soken you sly lil shit, sneaking it in there~

This game just keeps getting better and better 😭

I think this theme perfectly complements the fight. To me it really gives me this feeling of the tide about to turn HARD in favor of Clive/Ifrit and Garuda is about to be toast.

0:28 this is perfect loop for me I love the song at this minute

Thinking back on it Benedikta deserved a better fate. But in a way, that’s just how the story plays out, and I’m glad they kept that theme going to the very end.

If the world was in such a terrible state to the point you have nations warring with each other for the essentials of food and housing, and commit crimes against your own family, in a world where slavery is normalized. Would you want to press the reset button and start over again?

What its the obsession of Square Enix with Ifrit lately? main antagonist summon of XV which power can rival with Bahamut and now the protagonist and most stronger eikon of XVI.

As soon as I gained control of Ifrit in the fight, only one word screamed in my head in a chant. KAIJU! Then it was interrupted with laughter when Godzilla slapped her in the face with his tail.

I heard part of Garuda’s theme from 14 in the beginning of this.

Absolutely wild ost to hide the boredom of the actual battle

Now Fall!!!

Can you upload Bahamut vs Odin theme?

Its nice to hear some of ff14 garuda in this

Just gonna mention, it took me relistening to Fallen Angel from FF14 to notice that it doesn’t just play in the intro of the boss theme here. Listen closely at 1:23 for the “bells”, its the lyrical part of Fallen Angel.

🎶 “Falling too far from the light,
Deeper into the night…
Lost here inside my own hell,
I am a broken angel.” 🎶

I love this fight but I feel sad at the idea of killing the actually dominants as people.
Feels unnecessary. Not gonna spoil but so many characters die in this game.

Welcome to all that didn’t have experience with Soken in FFXiv, and now have goosebumps listening this masterpieces ❤

I didn’t expect FF16 to go full Asura’s Wrath with the cutscenes, but damn I’m here for it.

This theme’s got no right to slap this hard. 10/10

Hearing Garuda’s XIV theme during this fight made me smile

When that XIV Garuda line hits.

I love how the Eikon fights are just Ifrit manhandling the other Eikon. Makes it so bad ass with the music to just rag doll a beast.

The trombones at 0:14 playing FF 14 Garuda’s theme 🤩

On peut avoir le thème de barnabas est celuis de Odin s’il vous plaît ils sont magnifique aussi

maaa fuuu baaaa

Garuda turned into fried chicken

When it shows ifrit tail and the music starts… I had instant chills.

5:15 AOT reference I see you

They really weren’t kidding when they were saying Eikon fights would feel like playable cutscenes, they look and feel incredible

So awsome… Watching Something the humanbrain cannot understand

This fight reminds me a bit of attack on titan

3:51 – I hear you Garuda’s theme from XIV

Bro 0:15 … Real og know what theme reference is 🔥🔥🔥

Now fall.

i found garudas minions more ennoying then her tbh , what i think was very cool about this fight is how you shoot fire into the wind blast they both collide such a nice touch of detail

Making video games that are console exclusive gotta be the dumbest decision made in gaming history so far

Garuda got a cute face

This soundtrack is completely new to me as it wasn’t in any of the trailers (I think).. and I was pleasantly surprised at how amazing it is. Goosebumps.

I did this fight yesterday, gave me goosebumps the whole way through. So far the OST has been absolutely stellar. Well done Soken! 🔥

0:14 a part of Garuda’s theme from FF14.

Loved this fight and the OST is a banger ❤

Punching a harpy in the face and tossing her around like a cheap toy was probably the most Ifrit thing this game could give us.
The bear hug into hellfire was just… *gorgeous*

Cloud: welcome to the goated video game crew of final fantasy please sit with us
Vincs: thanks man
Noctis: good job man your era of final fantasy was a success

Squall: it was never in doubt to easily be the in the top tier.

Was so hard to fight with Garuda flashing that dumpy every kick.

Can u upload bahamut boss theme please, i’ve been in love with it since i heard it in the ambition trailer

KFC cooking BGM

This is So Epic..

And you can replay thus fight as manybtimes as you want

Awesome

1:00 One of the best themes

When i saw the trailer. My face was like 🤯😱😳😳 and said that music. Is like a theme when you are fighting the kid inside your soul and you kill him and become yourself into a person from 45 years old.

YEEEES i just finished the fight ! Thanks Mundus

This theme and the impact of the blows between two eikons, absolute goosebumps

Game went to Dragon Ball levels quite fast.

This game is a masterpiece

This game is perfect in every way😮‍💨

Can already see the garuda art💀

Beethoven can’t beat this

This fight left me on the edge of my seat with goosebumps

Soken didn’t need to reference XIV Garuda’s theme but he did anyway

Half the people saying the game is super easy dont realize they got ez mode bracelets on that literally play the game for you

I hear you there, Garuda leitmotif from FF14

Been waiting for this track to get uploaded in full. So damn good.

I swear your gonna love this game especially the bahamut one

0:56 1:22 so good thanks

You don’t even touch the game and it fun to watch. Wtf

Still waiting for bahamut and Odin boss osts😭

was waiting this thaannks❤

Ohhhh

I cant describe how iam actually in love with this game…
Graphics, art, MUSIC, characters, such a GEM.
Battle with Garuda was SOOOO good! I was actualy dancing and crying how beatiful was music and action on the screen! Just amazing!

Cannot wait until i reach Bahamut and Odin.

This game isnt hard and complex but the soundtrack and fights are S Tier

Anyone else think ifrit is the strongest god or is it bahamut

I don’t like the new Garuda design a bit, but it’s definitely one of the coolest battles we’ve seen. The music is still on top. It’s a crazy game.

Melhor tema ❤🎧

Absolutely love this theme 🎉

I’d love to see [Leviathan vs. Fafnir].😅
