It is the 114th track in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Original Soundtrack.

Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers[]

A portion of "Dawn of a New Era" looped plays in the ending of Reflections in Crystal.

Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker[]

A looped "Dawn of a New Era" plays again in the cutscene with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn in Radz-at-Han before the Warrior of Light journeys back to the First.

The motif of "Dawn of a New Era" is used as one of the motifs from A Realm Reborn in "Radiance", the boss theme that plays against Byregot, Rhalgr, and Azeyma in Aglaia.
