A Video Game tune, sometimes the Background Music, is turned into a huge orchestral version by the game developers. (Or, in some cases, another band.) It is not often used within the game or series and is only available online or in stores, though there's a chance it could show up in a remake or sequel, depending on the budget. This is usually done because the game itself has limitations on the quality of the music if it is an 8-bit, 16-bit, etc. game. The music is not always the same thing, and is sometimes extended. It may also be worse than the original music depending on who you talk to. Not always limited to video game music, but is rarely seen in other media. Not to be confused with Orchestral Bombing. See also Boss Remix. |

The Ys series has redone several major themes in full orchestra. Konami's PS2 port of Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim was originally going to have an entirely orchestral soundtrack, but fortunately they decided at the last minute to keep the signature Awesome Music from the PC version and instead used the orchestrated tunes for the Bonus Dungeons. Ys: The Oath in Felghana has a particularly awesome example in the form of "Chop!!", which combines Chester's leitmotif with the midboss theme from the X68000 version of Wanderers from Ys, the game's predecessor. |

In Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, one of Nanoha's Leitmotifs, "Raising Heart, Set-Up!" was later updated with "Raising Heart, Set Up! (The Magical Orchestra)." When The Movie came, another Orchestral Version of the song was created, and one of the the Limited Edition DVD/Blu-Ray bonuses show that they hired an actual orchestra to perform it along with other similar updates to the Season 1 soundtrack. | |

The original Leisure Suit Larry theme song was composed for the PC speaker - which can only produce single-tone sine waves. For the seventh game they redid it as a full-blown professional jazz recording. The sax was played by none other than Larry Laffer's spiritual father: Al Lowe. Get the intro from here, and all of the other tunes from the game(s). |

Blake Robinson orchestrated the Super Metroid soundtrack as Super Metroid Symphony. The Metroid Prime series features orchestral versions of the "Samus's Appearance" and "Item Acquisition" fanfares, "Brinstar"(in the Tallon Overworld), "Lower Norfair"(in Magmoor Caverns), and "Escape." Ridley's theme has a techno version in Prime, and a proper orchestral version in Metroid: Other M. |

Final Fantasy games get this a lot. Square Enix has released orchestral albums of Final Fantasy and II and Final Fantasy VI, and there are several CD's based on orchestral concerts. Final Fantasy VII in particular—there's an orchestral version of virtually the entire soundtrack... Orchestrated themes for the actual game soundtrack are pretty commonplace for the series post-VII. Yoko Shimomura's "Drammatica" provides another album of orchestrated versions of soundtrack pieces from Square Enix games Kingdom Hearts, Legend of Mana, Front Mission, Live A Live, and Final Fantasy XV. |

Double Dragon I and II both have professionally arranged OST albums, whose arrangements were used in the Double Dragon Trilogy released on Steam and mobile devices. More recently, Jake Kaufman reworked several of the series' iconic tunes for Double Dragon Neon, including the title theme, "Arrival of the Black Warriors"(City Slum), "The Great Fray"(Industrial Area), "Abobo the Giant Appears"(the Green Abobo cave theme, which gets a literal orchestra arrangement in the Haunted Forest level, and two power metal arrangements for Skullmageddon), "Old Nemesis Willy"(Hideout), "Unleashing The Ogre"(DD II Mission 1), and the Stage Clear and Intermission jingles. | |

The Sonic the Hedgehog series has used orchestral rock mixes of the games' main themes as backing music for some of the Final Boss fights. Sonic the Hedgehog (2006): "His World". Sonic Unleashed: "Endless Possibilities." Sonic Colors: "Reach for the Stars." The Blake Robinson Synthetic Orchestra arranged the soundtracks of the first two games. Sonic Frontiers: "The Final Horizon"'s new final boss has an orchestral version of "I'm Here" accompanying it. |

The Doctor Who theme was originally created by Delia Derbyshire and the Radiophonic Workshop through samples of test-tone oscillators, white noise and a single bass string (later arrangements of the theme in the classic series used synthesisers). The 1996 TV Movie had a fully orchestrated version. For Nu Who, Murray Gold combined samples of the original with conventional instruments, and also had a full orchestra version by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales for special occasions. | |

Gradius V's Stage 2 & 8 BGM begins with an orchestral version of the first few notes of "Challenger 1985", the first game's Stage 1 music. The previous games' boss themes, including the well-known Aircraft Carrier, were also reorchestrated for the returning bosses. | |

The original arcade version of Wonder Boy III: Monster Lair and its Mega Drive port had tinny FM-synthesized music, but the PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16 CD version received a professionally mixed RedBook soundtrack, which is quite awesome. | |

The original Mother had a soundtrack CD that, rather than containing the NES games' eight bit melodies, reproduced them as fully orchestrated and vocal songs. Tropers may know its first song, "Pollyanna," from the fact that it's the official unofficial theme song of the Sugar Wiki. |
