Masashi Kageyama, the original composer of Gimmick!, revisits and reimagines eight tracks from the legendary 1992 game for the first time in over three decades.

The album cover is designed by acclaimed manga artist Hitoshi Ariga, known for his works on Mega Man and Pokémon, among other franchises.

Fans purchasing the CD and vinyl editions will enjoy exclusive liner notes from Kageyama, offering a rare glimpse into the creation of the original Gimmick! soundtrack in the early ’90s and the inspiration behind the album’s new arrangements.

Gimmick! Official Arranged Soundtrack and Brave Wave’s new Perspective Series aim to bring fans closer to the unforgettable music of classic games, revitalized by the label’s legendary composers with fresh sounds in exciting directions.
