Give a Listen to Xenoblade Chronicles X Rap/Rock Battle Theme

Last week, we got a closer look at the combat and gameplay in Xenoblade Chronicles X, and underneath all that awesome combat – there was some new music from composer Hiroyuki Sawano (Gundam, Attack on Titan) that you might have missed.

Thankfully, Nintendo shared a separate video with a focus on the combat itself, upon which a fan ripped the audio and reuploaded it for your listening pleasure:

Notice anything different about it? It has a combination of the expected hard rock elements, but it also has a vocalist rapping in there – something that has gotten the ire of some Xenoblade fans out there.

What do you guys think about it? Does it fit in with the game’s science fiction elements? I personally didn’t like it at first, but it started to grow on me. Sound off in the comments below!
