In the latest Letter from the Producer, Naoki Yoshida has hinted at a rather fun upcoming expansion pack for Final Fantasy XIV. Yoshida made no hints that anything would be revealed at next weeks Tokyo Game Show, but did say that more details might be spilled during the Final Fantasy XIV Fan Festival.
What he has said is that Final Fantasy VII's theme park, The Golden Saucer will be coming to Eorzea. Yoshida is hoping to implement Chocobo racing and other mini games. As well as this, he has also revealed that Triple Triad will be another addition, however it won't be strictly limited to The Golden Saucer.
There is no time set for Golden Saucer or Triple Triad as of yet, but many are speculating it will be after Patch 2.4 which is bringing in the Rogue class and Ninja job! As for other new roles to come.... Yoshida has said this;
“For the 2.0 series, only the rogue and ninja in patch 2.4 will be added. Please wait for information to be released in the future regarding other roles. I’m thinking it will be around October 17”
So this is looking like some pretty exciting stuff to keep Final Fantasy XIV going. I for one am very excited to hear about Triple Triad being added, as quite frankly, I'm an addict. As for new classes and jobs.... who knows?! Maybe Red Mage to be added to DoM? All I can say is that I'm really chuffed that some new classes might be on the cards!
