Bravely Default's soundtrack has a special trick up its sleeve. I take a look at how the music in Bravely Default uses the character themes to empower the player in the final boss battle of the game.

Game Score Fanfare is a show that celebrates music in video games. I want to explore and share the unique ways that games use music to instil emotion into pixels and code, tell stories through sound, and create unforgettable moments. I'll be shining a light on the games and people who have taken the medium of video game music seriously and pushed its limits to create one of the most diverse genres of music that we have.
