Legendary Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu is "not retiring" after his next JRPG Fantasian Neo Dimension, but taking more time for "the music I want to make"

A boy and girl from Fantasian point off camera as a ship appears behind them.

Update (October 16):

Nobuo Uematsu has clarified that he's "not retiring" after Fantasian Neo Dimension, saying that "there seems to be some misunderstanding" from a comment he made saying the JRPG would be his "final project as a composer of video game music."
