Sound Room of Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade

From Fire Emblem Wiki, your source on Fire Emblem information. By fans, for fans.
The Sound Room in use, playing song 45

In Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, the Sound Room is unlocked by completing the game once on any difficulty with either ending. There are no further requirements for unlocking the game's songs, as all are automatically accessible from the beginning. Theoretically, almost all songs in the game are encountered by the player on the average playthrough of the game, with a small few appearing only in the good and perfect endings. Many songs from the game later reappeared in a redone form in the game's successor and prequel, Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade; in the Japanese version these songs are marked in The Blazing Blade's Sound Room as "烈火Ver Blazing Version", a reference omitted in the game's international releases.

Like the preceding Sound Room of Thracia 776, this Sound Room displays a small set of CG images depicting events from the game's proceedings and its backstory. Like Thracia and unlike all subsequent games, these images exist exclusively in the game's credits and in the Sound Room, and do not appear in story scenes.

The Binding Blade soundtrack was the subject of two albums: the The Binding Blade Original Soundtrack, an album of arrangements of select songs from the game, and the The Binding Blade & The Blazing Blade Original Sound Track, a collection of unmodified songs from both this game and its prequel Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade.

Note: For accuracy, some of the names used here may differ from those used in the most proliferated fan translation patch.
