Final Fantasy XIV to Get “Drastic” Updates Leading to ver. 7.0, More Info Coming in February

0

Final Fantasy XIV is in the midst of a bit of a renaissance right now, as the collapse of other major MMOs like World of Warcraft and the success of the new Endwalker expansion have led to a major boost in popularity for the 8-year-old MMO. Square Enix would be forgiven if they decided to rest on their laurels for a while, but apparently, that’s not going to happen – during the most recent Radio Mog Station broadcast, FFXIV director Naoki Yoshida hinted at future plans for the game, and it sounds like he has some bold ideas about where to go next.

While we likely won’t get a full expansion for some time (they typically come out every two years or so) Yoshi-P promises the updates leading up to version 7.0 will introduce some “drastic” changes. As for where the story might go following the climatic Endwalker update, Yoshida says the characters Thancred and Krile will take center stage. Eager to know more? Well, we won’t have to wait too long for more info – Yoshida is promising some big reveals in late February.
