As one of the most highly-anticipated new games to release in 2020, the upcomingFinal Fantasy VII Remakeis already riding on a wave of hype and hope from fans that it will deliver the remake of the classic game that we have been waiting for.

Square Enix is also pulling out all the stops when it comes to making exciting events around the game, including an upcoming concert tour that will kick off afterFinal Fantasy VII Remake’s launch this June.
Square Enix has announced theFinal Fantasy VII RemakeOrchestra World Tour, which will bring orchestral performances of the upcoming game’s soundtrack to cities in the US, Singapore, Thailand, the UK, and Japan. The tour will start at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, CA on June 14, with the tour scheduled to run through February 2021 in Tokyo, Japan.
The concert tour, which is being presented in collaboration with AWR Music Productions, will deliver “an electrifying new concert” based around the score and visuals fromFinal Fantasy VII Remake. Square Enix also detailed that the concert tour will offer “all new symphonic arrangements” from the game’s soundtrack, includingthe newly-unveiled theme song “Hollow"from series composer Nobuo Uematsu, with the orchestra being led by Grammy Award-winning conductor Arnie Roth.
