FINAL FANTASY XIV: Shadowbringers Trailer

During Square Enix E3 Live 2019, we gave players a sneak peek of what to expect from the upcoming expansion. Take a look:

New Jobs - Gunbreaker and Dancer

The first new job coming in the Shadowbringers expansion is the ‘gunbreaker’ – a gunblade-wielding fighter that occupies the tank role. Even better, if you managed to get the collector’s edition, you can use Squall’s iconic gunblade, Revolver, from FINAL FANTASY VIII.

The next new job is the Dancer. This class attacks with throwing weapons, and uses their smooth moves to damage enemies and add beneficial effects to the party.

New Playable Races

The Viera will be a playable race in FINAL FANTASY XIV: Shadowbringers. Their lithe forms and long-ears like rabbits will be familiar to any fans who’ve explored the world of Ivalice in games like FINAL FANTASY XII.

There's also a second new race: the Hrothgar. Like the Viera, these lion-like warriors will have unique and customisable features that are specific to their race.

New Raid from the minds behind NieR:Automata

The Stormblood alliance raid series, Return to Ivalice, will be followed by another exciting collaboration in Shadowbringers! Titled YoRHa: Dark Apocalypse, the new raid series is a collaborative effort featuring special guest creators Yosuke Saito (Square Enix producer) and YOKO TARO (game designer), reuniting the duo that helmed the NieR series.

New Raid with character and boss design by Tetsuya Nomura

Kingdom Hearts' director brings his creative talents to this challenging new raid. Take a sneak peel at the character of Gaia:

NPC ‘Trust’ system

This all-new system allows players to tackle Shadowbringers instanced dungeons with familiar NPCs by their side.

New Areas to Explore

Multiple new explorable areas coming to Shadowbringers: Il Mheg - a lush, awe-inspiring vale, the Rak’tika Greatwood - a sprawling forest of ancient, towering sentinels, and the beautiful Lakeland. Take a tour:

There are also new player cities. The Crystarium, which acts as a player hub, and Eulmore - an affluent city ruled by the elite. It will play a key role in the main Shadowbringers storyline.

New Beast Tribe and Primal

The pixies and their mighty regent, Titania are coming to FINAL FANTASY XIV with Shadowbringers. The First is also home to the Dwarves - a beast tribe never without their helmets or beards, and the mysterious ‘Sin-eater,’ Innocence.

How to get FINAL FANTASY XIV: Shadowbringers

You can preorder Shadowbringers right now from the Square Enix Store. Simply head over there and choose the version you want for your preferred platform.

If you preorder now, you'll get instant access to some bonuses, including the experience boosting aethertye earring - perfect if you want to get up to level 70 in record time and be ready for the launch of the expansion.

Not only that, but you'll get the Baby Gremlin minion to use immediately in game. Finally, you'll also be able to start Shadowbringers ahead of launch with early access.

Square Enix has dropped the time restriction from the Final Fantasy XIV free trial, meaning that you can now enjoy the first 35 levels of the MMORPG entirely at your leisure.

If you like your gaming big, you’ll love the best MMOs on PC.

The news comes via an announcement on Lodestone, the game’s blog: “the 14-day limitation on the free trial has been removed and the adventure can continue for as long as you want!”

You can now access all content up to level 35, including Chocobo Racing at the Gold Saucer. In a classy move, even expired accounts are restored, so if your trial was curtailed by the time limit before, you’ll now be able to continue to the level cap.

The removal of the time limit coincides with the latest patch, version 3.56, which concludes the main scenario of Heavensward, the game’s current expansion. The patch adds new quests and tweaks a couple of existing battles, but all of that will be way beyond trial players. For veterans, here are the patch notes.

As Heavensward concludes, the world of Eorzea is gearing up for Stormblood, Final Fantasy XIV’s latest major expansion. That’s due in June, and you can watch the trailer above.

You can sign up for the free trial here, or simply click ‘Download Demo’ on the game’s Steam page.
