Shining Force III Original Soundtrack



In 1998, Sega Japan released the revolutionary RPG series of Shining Force III for the Sega Saturn. It was divided into three separate games (and three separate discs) and told an intergal story from three different points of view. Following the release of the third game in the series, the soundtrack to the Shining Force III games was released. The music was composed and arranged Motoi Sakuraba. The first track was a combination of various themes into one track. The final three tracks were the different variations to the opening theme on each scenario. The remaining tracks were heard throughout all three games. On the back of the CD, the Camelot Software Planning logo was printed on it. Visiting the Camelot webpage (which no longer works) revealed there was an international version of this CD. It was titled Force of Light. However, there were only ten tracks. Obviously, if you wanted the complete soundtrack to the game, the Original Japanese Soundtrack was the way to go.

Product ID was TYCY-10003. It was published by Futureland and released in 11/26/1996. UPC Bar Code - 988006 155657. It was priced at Y2854. Total length of the CD was 55:17.
