Now, the mage lies in wait with its familiars for anyone wanting for a challenge.

Basically, a massive, grand palace estate has laid in decay for years, until a mage took it over.

There’s also going to be a new dungeon called The Grand Cosmos. Which, in a world like this, can be a lot! We assume it’ll continue the Shadowbringers storyline and follow the aftermath of what we’ve already seen so far. Not all the new content is NieR! Though it’s definitely making us want a NieR MMORPG.įirst off, FFXIV is getting some new Scenario Quests, which are the story quests. Now your FFXIV toon can too Become As Gods. There’s also a new raid called The Copied Factory, which appears to be… well, the factory from NieR, copied. Whatever the case, it looks like “YoRHa: Dark Apocalypse” brings some intense bosses and more beautiful battle themes, which NieR is especially known for. The trailer does some work to justify the crossover through some spoilery lore. Such quests expand on storyline with less depth than the main scenario quests, but more than a typical side quest. The MMORPG is now roping in themes, characters and music from the hit RPG, NieR: Automata.įor one, fan favorite 2B, as well as some robots from her own world, are popping up in a “Chronicles of a New Era” quest line.

The full patch notes are planned to be read on that same day, October 29th, around 3 PM Japanese Standard Time (that’s 11 PM PDT), but we’ve got what we’ve got for now. Most of what’s planned goes live on October 29th. Now it’s FFXIV‘s turn to get its treat.īut there are plenty of other things coming in the update! A “New Game+” mode, real-time collaborative progression tasks, a whole new guild system and more are among the new implementations. And boy, it’s a lot.įans especially have been hyped about the crossover between FFXIV and Square Enix hit. The beloved cyberpunk game, which focuses on androids that keep the world clean of corrupt robots, has been making waves in various Square Enix titles, including a full DLC character in Soul Calibur 6. Today, in the team’s 45th “ Letter From The Producer,” they unveiled more details about the patch. If Shadowbringers didn’t prove well enough that Final Fantasy XIV is alive and kicking, then the MMORPG’s upcoming patch should double down on that fact.
