Final Fantasy XIV is officially heading to mobile devices, promising a gradual rollout of its extensive content library. This mobile adaptation is a collaborative effort between Tencent's Lightspeed Studios and Square Enix. Get ready to explore the world of Eorzea right in your hands!
The long-awaited announcement confirms previous rumors, confirming Tencent's Lightspeed Studios will partner with Square Enix on the project.
Final Fantasy XIV's journey is a remarkable story of redemption. Its initially disastrous 2012 launch led to significant criticism and a complete overhaul, resulting in the acclaimed "A Realm Reborn" relaunch.
Set within the beloved world of Eorzea, the mobile version of Final Fantasy XIV will offer a substantial amount of content at launch. Players can expect access to nine different jobs, seamlessly switching between them using the Armoury system. Popular minigames like Triple Triad will also return.
This mobile port marks a significant milestone, given Final Fantasy XIV's dramatic rise from initial failure to enduring success. The collaboration with Tencent underscores the strong partnership between the two companies, solidifying Final Fantasy XIV's position as a cornerstone of Square Enix's portfolio.
One potential concern is the anticipated initial content offering, which may be smaller than some players might hope. It's likely that future expansions and updates will be progressively added over time, rather than attempting to include all of the game's extensive content from its history at once.
