There’s an opportunity to hear FFXIV Endwalker music anytime, as its EP3 soundtrack arrived. This is a new release with five songs taken from recent updates to the game. Both Amazon and Apple Music are selling it for $4.95. In addition, Square Enix shared the official lyrics for the Ilsabard’s Mount Ordeals song “Forged in Crimson.” As a reminder, that is the track Kenichi “Hyadain” Maeyamada, who in the past created a remix of “Battle with the Four Fiends” worked on with Masayoshi Soken. First, here’s the cover of the FFXIV Endwalker EP3 soundtrack and its full track listing.
- ”Fever”
- ”Rhythm of the Realm”
- ”Dedicated to Moonlight”
- ”Deep Blue”
- ”Forged in Crimson”
As for the “Forged in Crimson” lyrics, they remain a reference to Final Fantasy IV. The official developer’s blog also reminded people Takashi Tokita wrote its lyrics. Tokita has been involved with the series since the original Final Fantasy, but in particular worked on FFIV as a game designer and was involved with the GBA and DS versions. The song is tied to the fight against Autarch of Flame: Rubicante. Here are the exact lyrics from Square Enix:
Fears rise, blades fall His void calls Fires blaze, waters rage Gods above are deaf now to your cries (deaf now to your cries) Earthen scourge, gale winds surge Look within and seek your own salvation Do you claim to have the strength to brave the flames of battle, conquest, death, annihilation Here souls weep, sorrow steeped Wherefore would you mourn the coming dawn (mourn the coming dawn) Save your tears, face your fears In despair you will find no safe harbour Dare to stoke the fire in your soul, make keen your blade, stand fast or die bereft of honor In the darkness be by fear consumed Hearts turn cold where naught ever blooms Elemental fury given to flesh Raw strength on a level mere mortals cannot contest The embodiment of earth─earth, wind, water, and fire Fears rise, blades fall His void calls Flames consume, tides subsume Cut down all who would dare hold you back, prove there’s naught you lack Earth befouled, fierce winds howl Face hell now to prove your will unyielding You must walk this path alone, but know that you are not the first nor last to seek purgation Flames consume, tides subsume Cut down all who would dare hold you back, prove there’s naught you lack Earth befouled, fierce winds howl Face hell now to prove your will unyielding You must walk this path alone, but know that you are not the first nor last to seek purgation In the darkness be by fear consumed Hearts turn cold where naught ever blooms Elemental fury given to flesh Raw strength on a level mere mortals cannot contest Steel your soul or ever burn─burn with boundless ire, forged in crimson fire
Final Fantasy XIV and its Endwalker expansion are available for the PS4, PS5, and PC.
