LightSpeed Studios, a subsidiary of Tencent Games, and Square Enix have announced Final Fantasy XIV Mobile for iOS and Android. Initially, the game will be launched in China and later it will be released in the global market. The upcoming mobile game promises to bring the magic of FINAL FANTASY XIV to a wider audience.
The game will be supervised by Final Fantasy XIV producer and director Naoki Yoshida.
“It has been 11 years since FFXIV 2.0: A Realm Reborn launched, and this new mobile game will be a sister to FFXIV, aiming to recreate the grandeur of the original’s story and combat mechanics on mobile devices. Non-combat features, such as Disciples of the Land and Hand, will also be faithfully implemented and we look forward to growing alongside the passionate FFXIV community,” said Final Fantasy XIV Online Producer and Director, Naoki Yoshida.
Players in Final Fantasy XIV Mobile are called Mothercrystal. They are transported to the world of Hydaelyn to protect Eorzea from destruction. The game has dynamic combat mechanics tailored for mobile devices. It also has heart-wrenching moments and breathtaking visuals for an epic experience.
At launch, players can explore nine jobs, with the iconic Armoury system allowing seamless job-switching at any time. Players can participate in Chocobo Racing or play the beloved Triple Triad card game at the Gold Saucer. It also offers options to customize cozy homes and outfits to showcase unique styles.
There will also be seasonal events and engagement for crafting or gathering activities.
