I know what Chillhop is, yeah? But I didn’t know enough about Lofi Lore to know there were mascot characters involved. So when I see a statement like, “The Chillhop Raccoon takes listeners on a Lofi musical adventure,” in my email I notice. Especially if said email is from Square Enix.
This afternoon, Square Enix and Chillhop are premiering a collab album comprising Final Fantasy Brave Exvius Universe remixes.

A grand total of 25 tracks are included in the Final Fantasy Brave Exvius Universe x Chillhop Music Compilation. The songs will premiere today at 9:00 AM PT/12:00 PM ET on the Chillhop YouTube channel.
Music from both Final Fantasy Brave Exvius and War of the Visions: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius (yes these are two different games) have been remixed, and the following artists were pointed out as being involved:
- Flitz&Suppe
- Leavv
- Nymano
- Philanthrope
- Psalm Trees
- SwuM
- Toonorth
Square Enix will also release… “themed raccoon emoter gifs” in the Square Enix giphy channel. So, you know, that’s a thing.
This is the third major (covering my relative lack of knowledge there) musical collaboration associated with the Final Fantasy Brave Exvius brand.
Both Ariana Grande and Katy Perry have done collaborations, both of which features songs and in-game characters. It seems like, from the press release, that The Chillhop Raccoon will not be making in-game appearances in either mobile RPG.
