Here’s the latest updates for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (http://home.eyesonff.com/content/category/101-final-fantasy-xiv.html)!
This weekend was the Nico Nico Chokaigi event in Tokyo, where more FFXIV info was released. Yoshi-P announced that phase 3 of FFXIV’s beta will start in early June (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/61727?p=990641#post990641). Phase 3 will also include the start of the beta for the PS3 version!
Yoshi-P also gave some new info on FFXIV’s gameplay and upcoming content (http://www.dualshockers.com/2013/04/28/final-fantasy-xiv-a-realm-reborn-beta-3-slated-for-early-june-preorders-for-late-may-more-info-from-nico-nico-chokaigi-2/). Notably, some limit breaks (http://home.eyesonff.com/content/1935-final-fantasy-xiv-info-pax-limit-breaks-more.html) will become available in phase 3.
Regarding the upcoming phase 4, it has been announced that the current plan is for all characters from phase 4 to be transferred to the full launch version of ARR (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/61689?p=990820#post990820). However, that could change.
A new update on the developer’s blog (http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/blog/post/306) revealed some screenshots from all-new cutscenes planned for A Realm Reborn:
42785
Kan-E-Senna.
42786
Garuda.
42787
A new character, Alphinaud.
Lastly, a reminder for Legacy members: if you want your name listed in FFXIV's Legacy credits, you need to register to do so (http://sqex.to/wpq). More details can be found at the Lodestone (http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com/pl/index.html).
With phase 3 starting in early June, it looks like the ultimate release will not be until late summer, at the earliest. We’re a little behind schedule, but that was not totally unexpected; Yoshi-P and the FFXIV dev team have made it clear that they value getting it right over punctuality, so I say they should take all the time they need.
In the first announcement, Yoshi-P hinted that a new Producer Letter could be released soon with more info. We’ll keep you updated!
