Music to Level Up Your Day: God Eater 2

March 09, 2022

I don't know much about musical theory, nor am I a musically inclined person. However, I do love to listen to video game soundtracks. Who doesn't? They can be a powerful listening experience in their own right, or be as evocative as the scores composed for film. Each of these posts will feature music tracks from a single game title, or series/franchise in some rare cases.

Composer: Masaru Shiina (Go Shiina)

North American Release Date: August 2016

The game is set in the fictional country of New Asian Union (NAU) in the year 2074. Civilization has been ravaged by mysterious monsters known as "Aragami", so an organization called Fenrir was founded to exterminate the Aragami using living weapons called "God Arcs". God Arcs are made from the cells of Aragami and the people who wield them are known as "God Eaters". Taking place 3 years after the first God Eater, a new pandemic caused by "Red Rain" has struck the Far East Branch. Members of a special forces group called "Blood", an affiliate of Fenrir, are sent to investigate.
