The soundtracks of tri-Ace titles like the Star Ocean series and Valkyrie Profile have always been closely associated to the name of one composer: Motoi Sakuraba. The man, who has recently worked on Monolith Software's original GameCube RPG Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean, however has not been involved in tri-Ace's newest project. For Radiata Stories, the development studio has hired Noriyuki Iwadare in his stead. Iwadare's best known works are his compositions for the Lunar, Langrisser and Grandia series.
