Chicken tenders anyone?

This sounds so good

chopped amen break in my chicken tenders????

I need more music like this wtf

Music was so epic

I don’t know what Omega has to do with chicken tenders. And at this point I’m too afraid to ask.

Ahhh tenddies for people who never touched ff14…feels good😂

Another soken masterclass

Mmmm, all of the FF14 music callbacks, gotta love it.

17:17 Am I the only one who thinks that this guy looks like an older Zidane Tribal?😂

GAMER STATE

holy shit

Not only E-scape but scale and steel too!!!

The hardest part of this fight was staying in my chair

I wonder if it’s possible to this version’s lyrics lol

I thought that a good boss for the DLC would be a final Fallen survivor who enhanced himself with Fallen tech. And has a chip on his shoulder.

Is that… the theme for the Aetherochemical Research Facility I hear?!

Soken is COO-KING!!!!!

This is one of the most epic bosses I have ever seen. Cannot wait for this game to come out on pc in 3 years

Is this a dlc or something?

Since playing FF16, I’ve thought it stands to be one of the titles that has strong potential for a sequel. And I think a scenario where technology replaces magic – magitek – makes a lot of sense. This tech is all over the continent, ready to be explored. And the remaining followers of Ultima can “resurrect” him using magitek, making him stronger than before but without the folly and arrogance.

After i experienced this fight on Final Fantasy mode i decided to do more grind and upgrade most of my equipments to get ready myself for upcoming Leviathan dlc. Omega fight was so damn intense.

Theme FF14 🎉

Has anyone ever did this fight on ultimaniac? Holy shit

Soken you crazy bastard, you’ve done it. You’ve actually done it.

Using the 14 theme was a mistake. Same thing with titan but its worse here.

16 was already quite generic compared to other FF games but using music from a completely different game only takes away from it’s identity.

Its one thing for a composer to use similar techniques but to almost copy/paste his previous work feels uninspired.

It’s not terrible by itself but I’ve pretty much heard it before. Sounds more like a remix for an ultimate raid to me

leviathan theme is gonna be through the maelstrom im 90% sure

ANCIENT EECHOOOOOOES

Ow Fuck me, “The Twinning” part, sooooooo goooood

Yoshi P: I need a theme for an Omega fight
Soken: You know exactly what I’m going to do, right?
Yoshi P: *sigh* yes, give me a new version of eScape

I love it.

You never get me Clive! Not when I shift to Maximum Overdrive!!!!!

A D R I F T I N G T E N D E R
C O M E R I D E H E R O ‘ S R I D E

It sounds great, don’t get me wrong. But I really wanted something specific to FF16, not something would be easily in FF14 and honestly if I didn’t know I would think it was. Its a great song, but I think its crazy that after 7 years we can’t get a custom track for omega and instead got a remix to an already existing track from his previous work. Seems very lazy imo. Titan for instance has two drastically different tracks and I can tell the difference easily. Same with other tracks. Shame honestly.

Omega Vs. Ultima

Who do you guys think would win? Omegas are typically above Ultimas in the series, but this one feels different imo.

This reminds me Spark 3’s secret boss theme

” we don’t want to be gods, we just want to be free ” Clive

The Last Phrase of This Fight is The Definition of FUCK IT WE BALL UNGA BUNGA

May I say: WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO OMEGA?!

This music feels like I’m doing mix of 2 dungeons from FF 14, which is not a bad thing, I enjoy both for the music alone!

Worst version for me!😅

I’ve always been at awe of FFVI’s lore and Magitek technologies and FFXVI’s Omega encapsulates the sheer power of such institution very well. Kudos. Really hoping for an actual futuristic Final Fantasy which perpetuates the allure of the Magitek wars, soon and done RIGHT.

The fact that escape is now Omegas leitmotiff across the series makes me very happy

I’m fighting him now on NG final fantasy mode. Omg!! It’s nuts

Just wanna say, Soken cooked so hard that he made my ps5 crash last night as SOON as the song started. He’s not human.

Omega Metroid but its FF16

As soon as this started i was screaming and bopping in fear and hype. I didn’t expect this from the dlc but hella works for Omega battle theme

FF16 is so great. the cult of baldurs gay really took everything from us except the ost award.

Imagine this kind of pace for Leviathan, just Blinding Indigo, but even more hype

I really love that this is one of the hardest boss fights of the game (if not the hardest) it really adds to the lore that the fallen basically achieved godhood and were able to create their own extremely powerful eikon. The only thing standing in their way was ultima

Idk what it is, but I love how final fantasy always seamlessly blends fantastical elements with sci-fi without it being awful or weird, something about medieval ish characters encountering what is essentially a biomechanical god

Love me some chicken tenders.

Ah so this was the trailer music it’s awesome 😎🤩

Unpopular opinion incoming :
Come on, FF16 deserved better than a remix, and not even a good one…. As much as I love 14, it’s very difficult for me to dissociate these two numbers… I mean, yeah, maybe Soken didn’t have time to compose a real theme, but, still….

I fucking SQUEALED when I heard eScape in this song. Holy shit.

As cool is it to hear EsCape in ff16 I kinda wish it did its on ost thing kike ffXv

We can never eScape this theme, can’t we?

DMC 5 Cerberus theme

Kinda wish they made an entirely original song instead of a remix of 2 ff14 tracks but eh it is what it is

it’s STARBOARD CLIVE, WATCH WHERE YOU DODGE

Knowing Thant fanfare and chocobo theme are pretty much the same tone yet diverse in every ff game, this one makes me happy for future generations of gamers

Omega in this? I might pick this game up if it hits PC lmao I absolutely loved the omega fights in ff14.

Soken you mad lad you just had to bring eScape back

IDK about this particular Omega, but for me my experience in 15 was much more brutal. Never played 14 so I can’t say how that one goes. I still loved this Tower and the Eikon boss though, really cool design!

Gabber now, Soken?

Already complain that this is just too much ff14 and they just keep doing it….

2:29 IS IT LARBOARD OR STARBOARD SIDE?!

I was hoping for starboard and larboard to show up just to make this harder and for laughs (Those that played ff14 will get it). Unless I missed it.

Soken: You will listen to FFXIV’s music and YOU. WILL. LIKE. IT.

Me: Yes, milord!

Absolute banger this one soken

Soken and the XIV soundteam are so overrated. All they do nowadays is remix/recycle older soundtracks.

6:09 when the beat’s about to sync up and is pretty sick

I know this is mainly from 14, but I still get this whole fight was a weird combo of the limit cut episode of kh3 combined with FE:TH with hits if Pokemon Scarlet/Violet.

Now that they have a theme for Omega, I hope all future games has chicken tenders when Omega is there.

LARBOARD STARBOARD HNSSHSHSHHH

Ok Soken
You did not need to hit us with the alagan leitmotif *on top of* Omega’s chicken tenders

Actually, not knowing the “ancient civilization” context, it might actually fit suprisingly hard.

When I said that I’d like to see a “SIVA-infused Omega” back in 2021, I did not quite expect… this.

Clive not dead?

Holy fuck this remix is awful.

Will-o-wykes saved my ass in this fight!!

In Greek his name translates to “Omega eternal”. Something cool i wanted to share

This game is hot garbage, but Soken and crew have yet to disappoint.

Hands down the best boss fight in the game! It’s so chaotic and all over the place. The overall level was good but Omega was definitely what made it worth it! I’ve been fighting him on repeat in the arcade mode

Wow, the original was kinda bad, but this remix? A rare soken L.

Hearing that riff from “A Long Fall” at 6:12 just SENDS me

Cant wait to try and beat the enrage on ultimaniac with only the eikonic challenge abilities (if I can even reach that far ☠️)

The OST is an electronic version of several FF14 songs related to Omega, but still sounds cool. I like it!

genuinely amazing, MY GOD. THEY JUST KEEP MAKING PEAK.

I didn’t extect it to turn into The Twinning

Another insane fight and music track to go with it. The dlc was short but I had fun and this fight was spectacular. Can’t wait for the next slc to release.

Did this on Final Fantasy mode on my first go, after clearing TOP in FF14. The trauma never fucking ends man

I still don’t know what starboard/larboard is

Ff14 omega and azys’la songs

9:20 Looks like even in FF16 I can not escape Valstrax’s iconic dive bomb attack.

There is no fucking way they re-made this sond again and it SOUNDS SO SLAPPIONG GOOD

HELL YEAHHH FF14 STAY KEEP WINNING IT’S TWINNING TIME

“A storm has gathered! Come ride heroes ride!”

That is just the twinning but quieter xD and faster

How many boss fights are in the new dlc?

Starboard. Larboard. Larboard. XD

i can hear eScape, LARBOARD AND STARBOARD

I enjoy Soken’s music about as much as anyone, but someone close to him needs to sit him down and tell him it’s okay for a song to have intelligible vocals.

This fight on FF difficulty gave little room for error

Is this a new trend for Japanese fantasy games to have a tonal switch to Sci-fi for one boss fight? See also Fire Emblem Three Houses and Pokemon Violet/Scarlet for more expamples.

Souken remixed Escape from ff14 yet again. We can’t escape that song. You WILL jam.

THAT WAS A LONG FALL?????? NO FKIN WAY

This fight was so sick. this song sounds like it should be in every rhythm game ever

I like that FF14 has made certain little things iconic and omegas motif being one of those things sparks much joy.

Edit: after listening to this 50 times I just realized they spliced atherchemical reactor into the song and now I feel like we are getting a thordan’esq boss in the future.

You can hear the “E-Scape” leitmotif in there, and some references to Shinryu’s theme from Stromblodd.

This has to be Soken’s work. He’s a master of melodies.

Mommy, help me…

I’m so sick of leitmotifs, want some original music

I love that he has some of his FFXIV attacks, especially Pantakrator.

But damn, I wish he pulled out Hello World half way through the fight because that would have been amazing, terrifying, and hilarious.

There is no videogame or media in 2023 with better music than Final fantasy XVI. Fact. 💎

Come ride heroes ride…

Folks, eScape *already* had the azys la bit in it. it’s just eScape.

So I think they are hinting at some connection to the FF14 universe with thise DLC and boss, mayhaps this was the first Omega sent out by the Omicroms?

That’s a fucking Starless from PSO2 XD

This goes so hard

Much like with the FFIV final boss theme they remixed for FFXIV 6.5, I think this theme is a bit over remixed. There’s TOO MUCH going on, and it’s overstimulating my ears as a result.

Starboard Larboard intensifies

The visceral reaction I had to seeing “Pantokrator.” My friends said I sounded like a banshee with how much I screamed. Oh, the trauma..

1:52 I see the Fallen have visited Azys Lla.

I did every side quest and never encountered this. Is this only on Final Fantasy mode?

How many times do we have to teach you a lesson chicken tenders!?

*song starts playing*

Me: Yes i get it Yoshi-P you saved ff 14 xD

(Also i know is the same that made the ff 14 songs that compose most of the 16’s themes)

INSANE boss fight and INSANE OST. Echoes of the Fallen was a pretty damn good DLC. Can’t wait for Spring.

Fastest Spoiler in the west

on the bright side; no dealing with larboard

I’m looking the theme for the sagespire if anyone has it

5:50

As if FFXVI wasn’t already compared a lot to Xenoblade 3, this happens. I swear, Yoshi-P had that happen on purpose. Omega *literally has Aionios in it’s name at that point.*

EsCAPE + Azys lla themes from ff14

The chicken tender has returned, WITH A VENGEANCE

We need the ff16 ost on Spotify already 😩

Im sure many of the FFXIV raiders saw Omega use Pantokrator and got PTSD and Vietnam flashbacks. 😂

im just sad we didnt get Omega abilities

Having not watched the DLC reveal trailer, hearing the amen breaks pop into the song during the phase transition gave me goosebumps

On the night Soken wins the TGA for Best Score he shadow drops maybe his best XVI jam yet.

mixing escape and order yet undeciphered from xiv together is insane, this goes so hard

The year is 2030. eScape has been remixed a dozen times. Rumors are circulating that Soken is hard at work on version 13.

this is an amazing “superboss” even though it’s a DLC, i play this on FF mode
so fcking fun i even got goosebumps playing this especially i’m a FF14 player too
FF16 lack superboss fights i only remember the dragon hunt being the only considered “superboss” even though it’s easy even on FF mode

but this DLC convinced me that the team can actually make a great and challenging superboss in a FF action game.
FF16 could have way more value if this DLC is included in the base game especially FF16 don’t have any optional dungeons like it’s predecessors iirc

maybe they learned something after FF16 released with all of the feedbacks since Yoship said he haven’t plan any DLC and waiting for the community to decide for them to create a DLC or not

Of course Soken put Chicken Tenders in here….the madman

I love the trophy name being OMG cause I literally said that as I killed him

How does Soken cook so hard all the goddamn time, like bro no wonder they won best soundtrack

Honestly, all instances of Omega or Omega Weapon should maybe be seen as Lufenians’ influence, I guess. There’s just too much here that’s like them and FFOSOP.

He CAN just keep getting away with this, it seems.

Easily the best fight in the whole game. Hopefully the next DLC has more boss fights like this. A Gligamesh superboss fight with this gameplay would be amazing.

The boss fight was brutal even at normal mode. I went game over 5 times at stage 2 of the fight 🤦🏻‍♂️

This fight was something else on FF mode but i absolutely loved it it’s just absolute batshit insanity from frame 1 and the best parts of XVI are when they go off the walls.

Looks like there are parts of eScape and azys lla theme in this

2:03
That part OMG

Didn’t even think about the fact that this fight was gonna be hell on Final Fantasy mode since that’s what I left off on, took me longer than I’d like to admit but at least the song and the fight itself were both hype as hell

Omega 3 games in a row and yet hes cool and unique in every single one of them.

I a really great fight, I wish we get Arena DLC I the future with more Hard Bosses in the Future.
Hope the Season Pass sells great that we get a second 😊.

0:48 wait a minute….

good luck ff16 players, I hope you played ff14, or at least know what starboard/laboard is

EDM remix of eScape and Order Yet Undeciphered? Ohhhh yes.

Dunno how Square could top this. This is right there with Bahumut but is far more challenging.

Can we spare this one, brother?!

” KILL IT ALREADY, DANTE!”

Omega and the Azys Lla theme from 14 too

Honestly kind of a weak remix. Should have kept more of the original banger feel in my opinion.

MvP monstrão 🔥✅

They did not fuck around with these boss fights.

Most Nier fight in the game! This shit had me SCREAMING! FUCKING EPIC

I love you Soken

Why
Do weathered warriors wander their way whither wanting wonders wait
Hark the heralds, “Anchors aweigh!” Hither happens mine eScape
Freedom foregone, sinking space, comets crumble, Phoebus fades
Under cosmic clamor decayed, hides a path untaken!

It starts with eScape then goes into the Allegan theme damnnnn

definitely waiting til leviathan dlc

Dude it’s the theme from FF XIV HOLY MOLLY

God this fight was brutal. I wasn’t expecting it to turn to a bullet hell

I love eScape. Thanks for the remix, Square.

is it released already?

This sounds like a hyper mesh of eScape and the rest of Omega’s themes from XIV

I can definitely hear a bit of Omega’s theme from ff14 in this. It’s awesome.

Edit: The Seeds of Chaos have been Sown.

soken giving us trauma again from Omega ultimate F

Thanks for this, just finished myself. this DLC was short, basically just one mission BUT I can see where all the time and effort went. This fight went HARD, the best in the game.

Reminder that XIV’s Omega did leave Etherirys as we can see her leaving it on the Omega post scene on Stormblood.

Even if they say its destroyed on EW, she’s not, EW is just that inconsistent with the ingame lore.

“You are the Alpha I am the OMEGA.”

Fking badass theme

The moment the “lyrics” started i was banging my head so hard i lost

Don’t get me wrong, this sounds sick, but it kinda’ feels like Soken made this for 14 and just dropped it in here for convenience. I don’t hear any motifs special to 16.

Yo Masayoshi Soken and the crew are cooking!

Wait, why does this music sound familiar?

Alternative Title: Soken Unleashed

*STARBOARD LASER*
