It might seem amazing that Final Fantasy XIV is still kicking after all these years, especially considering the state the game launched in (leading to an eventual re-launch). Of course, to anyone who’s been paying attention to the MMO, it’s perhaps a foregone conclusion, especially after last year’s phenomenal Shadowbringers expansion.
Now, Square Enix is preparing for the end of the Shadowbringers storyline with Update 5.3, Reflections in Crystal.
This update brings a ton of content into the game, including a new raid that was co-created by the legendary Yoko Taro (of NieR fame) and Yosuke Saito. The level 80 raid is called The Puppets’ Bunker, and it’s the second part of YoRHa: Dark Apocalypse, a NieR: Automata-themed raid.
Additionally, there’s a new dungeon, new quests, new Trails, and so much more. No really, really, this update is a mega-beefy one.
You can see the full patch notes on the Final Fantasy XIV Lodestone website, and definitely check out the trailer below.
