The victory theme has been a Final Fantasy tradition since the early games, composed in its classic form by Nobuo Uematsu and rearranged for Final Fantasy V on the Super Famicom in 1992. After each random encounter and boss fight, the party strikes a pose while this fanfare plays. The melody became so tied to success that it spread far beyond the series into memes, streams and fan videos. Players instantly read those opening trumpet notes as mission complete, making it a universal shorthand for winning.
