Square Enix shared some new information through the FFVII Remake official Twitter account about the song that plays during the fight against Nero the Sable, the final boss of the Episode InterMISSION DLC campaign in FFVII Remake Intergrade. The theme is composed using three different methods. All of them feature the double bass as a common instrument, one associated with him throughout.
You can listen to the song used during the fight against Nero the Sable, named in English after the character, here:
【BGM】「漆黒の闇ネロ」
ネロとの一連の対峙で流れる3つの楽曲は、どれも異なる手法で作成されているんですよ!🎼1曲目はシンセサイザー主体、2曲目は高速で激情的な室内楽、3曲目はオーケストラと合唱です。どの曲にもネロのカラーとしてコントラバスをフィーチャーしています!#FF7R #FF7R_inter pic.twitter.com/HkHWPwNqTN— FFVII REMAKE (@FFVIIR_CLOUD) March 6, 2023
The three different musical pieces that make up Nero’s boss fight in FFVII Remake are composed using different techniques. The first part of the song has a heavy emphasis on its use of the synthesizer, the second one predominantly features fast and passionate chamber music, and the third type of composition uses an orchestra and choir. The double bass is a constant throughout all three compositions.
Nero the Sable is one of the Tsviets, an elite group of soldiers from Deepground, which first made his appearance in Dirge of Cerberus: FFVII.
Final Fantasy VII Remake is available for the PS4. Meanwhile, Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is available for the PS5 and Windows PC, and it includes Episode InterMISSION, a DLC campaign lead by Yuffie and in which Nero the Sable makes an appearance.
