The developers also provided an overview of the content that players can look forward to in the new patch. Here are some of them: New Main Scenario Quests, New Side Story Quests, a New Dungeon, New 8-Player Raid, and much more.

The Final Fantasy team also shared some extra details about Patch 6.25, which does not have a release date right now, and they said it would arrive later. It includes New Side Story Quests, New Weapon Enhancement Quests, New Tribal Quests, New “Variant Dungeons” Battle Content, and other enhancements.

Final Fantasy XIV is currently available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PC, and Mac OS X. In a February 2022 Letter from the Producer LIVE stream, Square Enix said the game will receive support for the next 10 years.
