Square Enix announced that it will release the Final Fantasy VII Remake Acoustic Arrangements album on November 25, 2020. [Thanks, Gamer!]
As suggested by the title, this album will contain 10 acoustic arrangements of the background music found in Final Fantasy VII Remake.

The album’s tracklist is as follows:
- Prelude Medley (includes Bombing Mission)
- Sector 7 Undercity Medley (includes Tifa’s Theme – Seventh Heaven)
- Jessie’s Theme
- The Turks’ Theme
- Let the Battles Begin – Fight On Medley
- Aerith’s Theme – Home Again
- Expressway Medley (includes Midnight Rendezvous)
- Ghastly Medley (includes Haunted and Ghoul)
- J-E-N-O-V-A – Quickening
- One-Winged Angel – Rebirth
The album will also come with a booklet that contains behind-the-scenes comments from the participating composers creating the arrangements. You can listen to samples of the tracks while watching some of the recording process in the promotion trailer shared by Square Enix:
