Arc System Works and Cygames going all-in on a fighting game soundtrack that sounds like an entire fantasy opera.

"Then Rise" sets the tone with the kind of anthem that makes you want to pick up a controller immediately. "Paradise Lost" is the Lucilius showpiece that Granblue fans already know and love, while "Existence" digs into similarly apocalyptic territory.
The character variety is staggering: "Macho Ultimatum" brings absurd flex energy for Ladiva, "Butterfly Girl" floats with elegance, and "The Prettiest Alchemist" has Cagliostro's playful confidence baked into every note.
The Wagnerian nods in "Lohengrin" and "Weißer Drache" give the Primal Beast fights genuine mythic weight. "No Rain, No Rainbow!" and "Party People" show the lighter side of the roster, while "Armageddon" and "Wings of Terror" remind you this universe has world-ending stakes.
"Such a Blue Sky" and "The Same Blue Sky" bookend the emotional core of Granblue's whole ethos: found family under an endless horizon. One of the best fighting game soundtracks of its generation, full stop.
