If you still need convincing and haven’t heard the meme yet,Final Fantasy XIValso offers a generous free trial that includes access to the aforementionedA Realm Reborn,Heavensward, andStormblood. You won’t get some of the nice features like additional retainers, but if you’re looking to experience a good story in an MMO world, it’s a good option.
For those Xbox owners bummed they don’t have the most recentFinal Fantasyrelease on their console right now,Final Fantasy XIVmight be the balm you need. I can attest that, even though I showed up years late to the party,Final Fantasy XIVis a darn good time, whether you’re soloing or partying up. Or just exploring all the sights, sounds, and mysteries the Party Finder has to offer.
Final Fantasy XIVofficially launches for Xbox Series X and S on March 21.
