Xenoverse Music Question (involves Mr. Yamamoto)

Post by dbboxkaifan » Fri Oct 03, 2014 9:01 pm

The music that they're using for the Beta releases appears to be from Burst Limit (by Kenji Yamamoto) so in the full version they'll be replacing it with non-Yamamoto tracks, correct? But then, why did they use Yamamoto's music for Xenoverse's Beta?

This just brings up the hope of hearing Yamamoto's music back on Dragon Ball games and that's an awesome feeling.

While I know that Yamamoto's music was swapped everywhere else this one's an odd because they're allowed to use it so it's okay for a beta?

There's no way he's coming back. My guess is that they're temporarily recycling his music because the game is still just a closed beta and maybe Yamamoto renounced any rights to his pre-scandal compositions and Namco Bandai can use them for free. Also, considering that the Developer is Dimps, the game might be based on the engine of Burst Limit.
