The music of the
Final Fantasy Tactics video game series, composed of
Final Fantasy Tactics, a spin-off of the main
Final Fantasy series,
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, a spin-off game from
Final Fantasy Tactics, its sequel,
Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift, and
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions, a remake of
Final Fantasy Tactics, was primarily composed by
Hitoshi Sakimoto. The only input from
Nobuo Uematsu, the main composer of the
Final Fantasy series, was in the soundtrack to
Tactics Advance. He was assisted by
Masaharu Iwata in composing the music for
Final Fantasy Tactics. The
Final Fantasy Tactics Original Soundtrack, a compilation of almost all of the music in the game, was released by
DigiCube in 1997, and re-released by
Square Enix in 2006. As of 2008, no separate soundtrack has been released for
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions. The soundtrack was well received by critics, who found it to be astounding and one of the best video game music soundtracks in existence at the time of its release.
The music of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance was again composed by Hitoshi Sakimoto, with assistance from Nobuo Uematsu, Kaori Ohkoshi, and Ayako Saso. The Final Fantasy Tactics Advance Original Soundtrack, a compilation of almost all of the music in the game, was released by DigiCube in 2003. A new age arrangement album entitled White: Melodies of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, a selection of musical tracks from the game arranged by Yo Yamazaki, Akira Sasaki, and Satoshi Henmi, was released by SME Visual Works in 2003. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance Original Soundtrack was well received by critics, who praised the album's composition. Critics did not react as well to the White: Melodies of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance album, finding it to be a mediocre album with poor arrangements.
The music for Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift was also composed by Hitoshi Sakimoto, this time with the assistance of composers from his company Basiscape. The music was released as Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift Original Soundtrack by Square Enix in 2007. It was enjoyed by reviewers, who found it to be pleasant and rewarding.

Reception and legacy
The
Final Fantasy Tactics Original Soundtrack received positive reviews from critics such as Patrick Gann of
RPGFan, who says "It is the best soundtrack I own, and I don't believe that any other soundtrack known to man surpasses it yet as a whole."
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance Original Soundtrack was received favorably by critics; Richard Vardaro of
RPGFan found it to be "beautifully composed" and compared it favorably to the soundtrack to
Final Fantasy Tactics. However, he questioned the inclusion of the Game Boy Advance version of the soundtrack, finding it to be "tinny and raspy". Chris of Square Enix Music Online also enjoyed the soundtrack, seeing it as "creative, appealing, and mature" and "a must-have".
White: Melodies of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance was not received well by critics, with Patrick Gann finding it to be a mediocre album and saying that he felt "very disappointed" with the album. He found the "new-age" style to be poorly chosen and the arrangements to be sub-par. Zeugma of Square Enix Music Online was more approving of the album, saying that it conveyed the "quiet mood" it promised, but finding it to sometimes be "dangerously close to muzak" with too many synthesized instruments and too little variation.
Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift Original Soundtrack received positive reviews from critics, with Vincent Chorley of RPGFan terming it "one of the most rewardingly pleasant soundtracks this year." Ovelia of Square Enix Music Online also enjoyed the soundtrack, saying that it was "mature yet still playful", but worried that it hinted at a stagnation in Mitsuda's musical style.
A radio drama based on Final Fantasy Tactics Advance was broadcast starting in January 2003, preceding the release of the game. The shows were compiled in a series of four of CDs entitled Final Fantasy Tactics Advance Radio Edition vol. 1-4. The CDs were released by DigiCube on February 26, 2003, March 26, 2003, April 23, 2003, and May 21, 2003, with the catalog numbers SSCX-10082, SSCX-10088, SSCX-10092, and SSCX-10094, respectively. Additionally, a single was released by Sony Records on November 27, 2002 with the catalog number SRCL-5513 containing the song "Shiroi hana", performed by Zone, which was used as an image song for commercials for Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. Selections of music from the Final Fantasy Tactics series have also appeared on Japanese remix albums, called dojin music, and on English remixing websites.
