Final Fantasy XV: Original Soundtrack

Final Fantasy XV: Original Soundtrack  is the complete soundtrack for Final Fantasy XV. Vocals were performed by Aundréa L. Hopkins for the theme song "Somnus".

Development
The soundtrack of Final Fantasy XV is mainly composed by Yoko Shimomura, who is known primarily for her work in the Kingdom Hearts series. Shimomura is in charge of 80-90% of the game’s soundtrack, the rest being variations of her works or themes handled by others. Shimomura is also contributing the theme song for Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV which features original music written by composer John R. Graham. Some of the themes in Final Fantasy XV aim to encompass "friendship" and "filial bonds."

Shimomura has worked on the score ever since the game was known as Final Fantasy Versus XIII. Because the project wasn't originally a main series Final Fantasy game, she initially felt there was not so much pressure to follow in the footsteps of other Final Fantasy composers. When the game became Final Fantasy XV Shimomura had already worked on the project for a while and had a clear idea of the concept and direction making it easier to continue on that path. New music needed to be added specifically when the game became Final Fantasy XV when new things that needed to be supported by music were added to the game.
