No teníamos que ver el trailer para saber que Final Fantasy XV es uno de los juegos más anticipados del año para el XBox One y el PlayStation 4, pero ahora que ya le echamos un vistazo, nuestra emoción llegó a niveles propiamente ÉPICOS.

Obvio, muchos de los escalofríos que tuvimos mientras veíamos el video se dieron a partir del minuto 2:04, cuando se empieza a escuchar a Florence + The Machine con el cover de uno de los grandes clásicos de Ben E. King, “Stand by Me”.

En el video de abajo, Florence Welch explicó su gusto por la saga más popular de los juegos de RPG y la inspiración derivada de los arreglos orquestales en la música de videojuegos.

Florence covers 'Stand By Me' for Final Fantasy XV

Stand By Me is one of the greatest songs probably of all time so I was really glad that the game had chosen this song to do. We really wanted to make it our own, bringing it into the world of Florence + The Machine and the world of Final Fantasy XV.I’ve always seen Final Fantasy as a beautiful and creative game so I don’t think I could have worked with another video game. In some ways the landscape of Final Fantasy and my own internal landscape seemed to fit quite well, it’s mythical and beautiful and epic.I was listening to Classic FM and there was a whole 2 hour programme about classical music in videogames. It was so inspiring and a whole scope of music that I didn't know about. It was really fascinating, the music was incredibly beautiful and emotional and I took it as a sort of sign, to see what I can do in this medium.
