"Zero Hour" is a musical composition by Tsuyoshi Sekito that appears in Kingdom Hearts III. It has two variations, titled "Zero Hour -The Chase-" and "Zero Hour -The Rescue-".
Development
Both versions of "Zero Hour" based on compositions by Yasuhiro Yamanaka from the 2011 Final Fantasy spinoff mobile game Imaginary Range. "Zero Hour -The Rescue-" is copied from a puzzle theme from Imaginary Range. The pieces are nearly identical in melody and structure, although the original has more electronic instrumentation and lacks an introduction. Likewise, the B section of "Zero Hour -The Chase-" has the exact same melody as the Chocobo Chaser theme from Imaginary Range, with similar changes to instrumentation. However, the Kingdom Hearts - III, II.8, Unchained χ & Union χ [Cross] - Original Soundtrack does not list Yasuhiro Yamanaka as a composer or collaborator of any kind.
Appearances
"Zero Hour" is used during events and cutscenes that possess a sense of urgency.
