Sephiroth, it turns out, is getting more support.
During today's presentation, it was revealed that nine new Final Fantasy songs are being introduced in this update, bringing the total to 11. These are focused on music from Final Fantasy VII and its spin-off movie, Advent Children, and include some new arrangements of classic songs.

- Opening - Bombing Mission (new arrangement)
- Those Who Fight (Advent Children version)
- Those Who Fight Further (Advent Children version)
- Aerith's Theme (new arrangement)
- Main Theme of Final Fantasy VII (new arrangement)
- Jenova
- Cosmo Canyon (new arrangement)
- One-Winged Angel
- Advent: One-Winged Angel
