New Song Added with Version Update

Information about the new song added in this update is as follows.

Composition: Nobuo Uematsu Arrangement: Naoshi Mizuta

Orchestra music provides the backdrop for Izumi Masuda's beautiful vocals. Ms. Masuda is an accomplished performer, creating a new genre that may only be described as pop-opera, a blend of both styles of music.
