Following in the footsteps of the four-disc NieR Replicant Vinyl Box, Square Enix has opened preorders for a compilation of Final Fantasy series music on vinyl, titled "Heroes and Villains."

The origins of "Heroes and Villains" dates back to two separate compact disc compilations, entitled "Final Fantasy Heroes" and "Final Fantasy Villains." Each CD release debuted at the 2014 Tokyo Game Show, decorated with character illustrations by Tetsuya Nomura, as depicted in the Dissidia game series.

"Heroes and Villains: Select Tracks from the Final Fantasy Series" ships as a four-disc box set. Available separately, the first volume of four is estimated for release on March 28th, 2022 as a standalone analog record, shipping from the Square Enix store for North America and Europe.

All 16 music tracks from the Heroes and Villains (First) compilation are available for streaming as a Spotify playlist, courtesy of the publisher.


From the product page:

A new compilation album set from the Final Fantasy series is now available on four vinyl discs! Each series has its own fascinating heroes, and intriguing villains who stand in the heroes' way. This set contains the beloved theme songs and nostalgic battle songs of those iconic characters. Inside, you'll find music download codes so the tracks can be enjoyed even without a record player.
