Lately there have been quite a few rumors on the internet stating that Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is scheduled for release next summer. Those rumors have been introduced as fact by a couple prominent press sites, causing quite a bit of confusion. They proved to be premature.
Today, during a pane at PAX East, Square Enix announced the release date of the next expansion Dawntrail, on top of the editions and more.
The MMORPG will arrive on Xbox consoles on 21st March following its open beta, with Square Enix releasing further details on the launch in a new Lodestone blog post.
Not only is Game Pass required to play the game in full, but FFXIV Coins will be required to make purchases - a new currency not used on PC or PlayStation.
What's even the point if they're doing everything possible to convince people NOT to play?
Bad idea. Kind of at the point its almost like a repeat of FFXI on the 360 with it requiring Gold to play.
Greed greed nothing but greed. Anyone who willingly plays 14 on Xbox is a bona fide sucker.
Kotaku writes: "That’s thanks to a series of announcements from Square Enix about exclusive features and play requirements, the latest being a new currency called FFXIV Coins."
That stinks, so much for the early 2013 goal they had. I still want ps3 info like if its f2p or some gameplay, mainly controls.
Where is the PS3 Beta!?
