Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail - New Expansion Coming Summer 2024

Recommended Posts

FF14-Dawntrail-Announcement2.jpg

Square Enix just revealed the next expansion for Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail, which will release in Summer 2024. Check out our article to see everything coming with FF14's next adventure!

Square Enix has announced the fifth expansion for the popular MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, titled Dawntrail, which will launch in summer 2024. The announcement was made by director and producer Naoki Yoshida during the Fan Festival in Las Vegas, where he also revealed a brand new trailer for the expansion, which showcases some of the new areas, enemies, and features of the expansion.

New Continent, Story Arc, and Characters

The expansion will take players to a new continent across the western sea, called Tural, where they will embark on a quest to find a fabled city of gold. Tural is a diverse and exotic continent that will, most likely, have many different landscapes and cultures to explore. Some of the new maps that players will visit in Tural are Urqopacha, a mountainous region in Yok Tural, and Yak T’el, a rain forest region accessible from Tuliyollal. Urqopacha is home to The Pelupelu, one of the new Allied Tribes that players can befriend and interact with. Yak T’el is home to hrothgar and Mamool Ja, two races that have appeared in previous Final Fantasy games.

The expansion will also introduce a new story arc that will divide the Scions, a group of heroes who have been fighting against the forces of darkness, as Mamool Ja is having a contest to see who will become his successor to the throne. Along the way, players will also meet new characters, such as Galool Ja Ja, the ruler of Yok Tural, the new hub city.

The Dawntrail reveal trailer itself has a very “pirate” vibe to it, which suggests that the expansion will be a break from the norm and put us on a vacation. According to Yoshida, the theme of the expansion is based on “Gilded Legacy”, and it will be “the perfect summer vacation”, and our warrior of light seems to be the center of the adventures again. However, we can also spot a few familiar faces like Y’shtola and Thancred. How did we arrive in this new world? What are we planning to do here, and who will we be helping this time? So many questions come from this trailer, and we can’t wait to learn more about this brand new world!

Two New Jobs, Both DPS

The expansion will also add two new jobs, both DPS: one melee and one caster. We speculate that the caster job will have something to do with being a Painter, based on a hint from Yoshida that referenced TMNT (he was wearing a TMNT shirt on stage while talking about the new jobs). For those who don’t know, TMNT stands for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, a popular franchise that features four turtles named after famous painters: Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael. As for the melee job, something related to pirates could make sense? Currently, however, the actual jobs are still unknown at this point, but we hope to learn more about them soon. It is fun to speculate, though!

New Content Coming in 7.0

Additionally, on top of all the other information we have so far, the expansion will also bring new dungeons, raids, alliance raids, ultimate fights, and more. Some of the new content that was teased in the trailer or mentioned by Yoshida are:

  • Level Cap Increase to 100
  • Valigarmanda Dungeon Boss: Valigarmanda (image above) is a bird-like creature that uses magic powers and first appeared in Final Fantasy VI as an optional boss.
  • Duty Support Update: A mysterious feature that Yoshida said he can’t give too many details about because it pertains to new story beats. We wonder what it could be.
  • New “Lifestyle” content: This is most likely going to be similar to Endwalker’s Island Sanctuary, where players can enjoy some relaxing activities such as farming or fishing. No screenshots were shown yet.
  • New Variant Dungeon: New type of dungeon that Yoshida said will be challenging and fun.
  • Alliance Raid: A 24-player raid that usually features a crossover with another Final Fantasy game or another franchise. No name or theme was revealed yet.
  • 8 Player Raid: An 8-player raid that usually follows the main story of the expansion. No name or theme was revealed yet.
  • New Ultimate: This is an extremely difficult fight that requires high skill and coordination from the players. No name or theme was revealed yet.
  • Blue Mage Update: Blue Mage is a limited job that can learn skills from enemies and use them in battle. The expansion will update the level cap and the skill list of Blue Mage, as well as add new content for Blue Mage players.
  • More Hildibrand: Hildibrand is a comedic side story that follows the adventures of Hildibrand Manderville, a self-proclaimed gentleman detective, and his eccentric companions. The expansion will continue this story with more hilarious quests and scenarios.
  • New Deep Dungeon: Dawntrail will add a new Deep Dungeon. No other information is available yet.
  • Gold Saucer Updates: Gold Saucer is a place where players can enjoy various mini-games and activities, such as Chocobo Racing, Triple Triad, Mahjong, and more. The expansion will update the Gold Saucer with new games and rewards.

These are, of course, just a few examples of what is to come! We are very excited to see what Square Enix has in store for us in this expansion, and we cannot wait to explore the new continent, the new story arc, the new jobs, and the new content.

However, this is not all that SE has to offer, there are still more announcements and reveals to come during this weekend’s Fan Festival, which will feature more details about the expansion, especially during the upcoming Live Letter, as well as other possible surprises and collaborations. We will be covering all the interesting stuff that has been announced, and will still be announced during this weekend. So stay tuned for more news about Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail!

Part of me was hoping this graphical update would make FF14 look like 16 - but given that it's a MMO, that's rather impossible.
Still, these updates add subsurface scattering, improved eye highlights, better quality texture hair and much more. METAL SHADERS!

I am very, very excited. °O°

So excited for everything! wonder what the 2 classes will be! 

Based on some things I've seen or heard, speculation right now is Painter and Corsair. Someone froze the trailer at a specific frame and was able to find a gun during one of the cuts in scenes. If that's the case, I'm absolutely pumped, those two releases are more hype to me than Endwalker with Reaper and Sage.

Corsair seems too similar to Machinist I feel like, but would totaly be cool if it's that! Painter seems super intriguing ! I loved Sage in Endwalker, but Reaper wasn't that much of a hype either although I like playing it. Would have wished they add a Tank or a Range DPS (but not caster), since we have only Dancer/bard and Machinist as range, but super excited still about what it can be!

They've stated they're pretty happy with 4 tanks/healers in the game. It's a big pain to keep them balanced as is, just because of how their kits work. I dont foresee them adding to either of those roles for quite some time, if ever.

Caster has been the the role with the longest time since a new addition, and Scouting is the only gearset that doesn't share gear, so it's only natural we get those this time around.

      Curious about Final Fantasy XI after Echoes of Vana'diel in FFXIV? Square Enix is offering a limited-time discount to try FFXI, if you meet a few conditions. Here's what you need to know!
      Square Enix just announced a special campaign for Final Fantasy XIV players who want to explore the world of Final Fantasy XI. As part of the Echoes of Vana'diel Discount Campaign, new or returning FFXI players with an active FFXIV subscription can get 50% off their first paid FFXI month, after the free trial ends.
      The Campaign runs from July 1 to July 18, 2025 (PDT).
      To get the discount, you will need to meet both of these requirements:
      You must have an active Final Fantasy XIV subscription You are either: Creating a new FFXI account, or Reactivating an old/cancelled FFXI account on the same Square Enix login Already subscribed to FFXI? You won't get the discount unless you make a new service account, which comes with its own complications.
      Here is what you get, and don't:
      Discounted Not Discounted First paid month of FFXI subscription ($11.95 to around $6) Character fee ($1 per character/month) Applies after 30-day free trial Does not apply to the game's purchase cost Only if linked to active FFXIV account No discount for FFXIV subs You also have to buy the game and register it properly for the discount to activate.
      The timing is not random. This follows the recent Echoes of Vana'diel alliance raid in Final Fantasy XIV, which generated new interest in the classic MMO. If you've been curious about FFXI's roots, or just want to revisit Vana'diel with a new pair of eyes, this might be the best time to do it.
      Depending on if you are a new or returning player, you will have slightly different steps. Square Enix provided a help page with setup instructions for both scenarios.
      If you are returning with an old PlayOnline ID you will need to transfer your account to your SE login.
      And if you are new, Just buy the game, link it to your FFXIV account, and start your 30-day trial.
      The discount only applies during the July 1-18 campaign window, and it expires 30 days after your first paid month begins. So if you're planning to activate or re-subscribe, don't delay.

      Congratulations to FFXIV Mobile's successful launch! As thanks, everyone gets a permanent Pathfinding Scroll, regardless of when you start playing!
      FFXIV Mobile just launched their Open Beta in China last week, and it's been an adventure to watch! Final Fantasy XIV's A Realm Reborn has never been the expansion that everyone openly praises, but FFXIV Mobile's changes have definitely improved gameplay in more ways than one. As a result of its successful launch week, every Warrior of Light also gets free rewards, like A LOT!
      As reported from the English community over on Reddit, FFXIV Mobile has gifted every player a Pathfinding Scroll, both current and new players alike! Now, I don't have to manually walk from quest to quest, I can just auto-path there instead!

      The unofficial translation of the in-game mail, which can be found on the subreddit, is as follows:
      "Thank you for your support and love. In order to facilitate [the] adventurer's travel in Eorzea, we will give you the Pathfinding Scroll item. Remember to use it in your inventory to unlock the automatic pathfinding function.
      Adventurers who have already purchased it will also receive additional compensation. Please remember to check the in-game announcement for details."
      What a heart-warming gesture! But wait, there's more! The translated version of the official in-game announcement reads:
      "Thank you for your support and love for Final Fantasy XIV: Crystal World since its launch. We have noticed the positive feedback from adventurers on the game's automatic pathfinding function, and we also realize the importance of this function to all adventurers playing in Eorzea. Therefore, after careful evaluation, we have decided to open the automatic pathfinding function to all adventurers. At the same time, we would like to express our deep gratitude to adventurers who have purchased the automatic pathfinding service and will give them additional compensation. The specific collection and compensation measures are as follows..."
      To summarize the reward and compensation details:
      Until July 30th, 2025 (UTC+8), all adventurers who log in can obtain a Pathfinding Scroll via Mail. When using the Pathfinding Scroll in their Inventory, adventurers can auto-path to their quest destination. Look, hands-free! After the update on June 26th, new adventurers who complete the first main scenario quest "Welcome to the Desert City" (translated) will receive the Pathfinding Scroll as a quest reward. Pathfinding Scrolls will no longer cost Crystal Points (premium currency), but rather 100 gold coins instead. If you previously paid for a Pathfinding Scroll, you will receive a refund of 600 Crystal Points. The compensation will be via Mail within one week from the June 26th update. Remember to try the game soon, the Celebration Event (featuring adorable penguins) ends July 10th!

      There's also a 7-Day Login Event with plenty of rewards that ends July 2nd, and there's only... 8 days left?! Oh no, I better get to playing myself!

      Many thanks to the redditors RablaAndrews and Wizzed for the information! Did you know there is a growing English community over on Discord as well? If you're interested in playing, check out FFXIV Mobile today!

      FFXIV Mobile launched in China several days ago, so what are players' impressions like? Is the game truly "FFXIV, but better"? Let's find out all of changes FFXIV Mobile made so far!
      If you haven't caught on already, FFXIV Mobile has a growing English community over on Reddit! Throughout its launch week, many Redditors shared their gameplay and latest info, letting overseas players know what the game is currently like. But is FFXIV Mobile living up to the legacy that's over a decade old?
      Final Fantasy XIV's A Realm Reborn first launched back in 2013, and after many years of expansions, it underwent many changes to its storytelling, quality of life additions, and content features. For example, players have an easier time farming for the Zodiac weapons today, compared to what it was like in Patch 2.0.
      Now in 2025, A Realm Reborn has returned on FFXIV Mobile, allowing players to re-experience what the "good old days" were like -- but better. Reddit user RablaAndrews has carefully compiled a post detailing all of the differences, and we're here to point out all of the good (and bad) things for you! If you found the information helpful, be sure to give them a thumbs-up and comment, or visit the unofficial FF14 Mobile US Discord!
      Story and Quests

      Every player starts out in Ul'dah, regardless of what class you chose to play. If you wanted to start in Limsa Lominsa or Gridania, sorry! Maybe they'll add this later on? Main scenario quests are better streamlined, so now players have an easier time following the story. Quest navigation is now easier, such as using Chocobo flying and NPCs for direct teleports. In FFXIV, you only unlock flying in A Realm Reborn zones after completing the expansion's entire main scenario questline. Thank goodness Chocobos in FFXIV Mobile are modernized! However, FFXIV Mobile requires you to unlock Aether Currents to fly in A Realm Reborn zones. Also, you'll get the Aether Compass in A Realm Reborn instead of Heavensward. At least you can still fly, right? Quests with solo instances now have a minimum item level requirement. If you don't meet it, you can't continue the quest. Remember to gear up as you level up! No more Combat levequests! Surprisingly, there are also no Guildleves. FFXIV Mobile's current MSQ goes up to the end of Patch 2.0, after "The Ultimate Weapon". There's no information yet on when the next expansion content from Heavensward will release for FFXIV Mobile. World and Regions

      All of the locations in A Realm Reborn are the same in Mobile and FFXIV. This includes Allied Societies, Revenant's Toll, and even the Gold Saucer! I love playing Triple Triad! One teleportation difference is that you can teleport to any city's Aethernet shards, not just the big ol' Aetheryte. This streamlines the process of me traveling between Limsa Lominsa's fisher guild and Gridania's Amphitheatre! A Realm Reborn features Aether Currents, ranging from 4 to 8 currents on each map. None of them are locked as quest rewards, though part of Western La Noscea is restricted until you progress in the MSQ. FATEs still exist, so better get started on the Zodiac relic weapon grind! I'm just kidding, but they've updated FATEs to include Bicolour Gemstones, Forlorn Maidens, and even a new feature called High Risk rewards! You can also get some limited-time buffs that'll empower you after completing a FATE. FATEs also have a cumulative milestone tracker, where you can complete tasks over the course of completing the same FATE several times. For example, you'll get rewarded for killing monsters X times and collecting Y number of items, but you'll have to come back many times to get all of the rewards! Do you know about the Happy Bunny FATEs in Eureka, and how they'll help you find buried treasure? Well, FFXIV Mobile has that too, except it's Marmots and it can be in any region in Eorzea. Apparently, if you find all of the buried treasure, you can trade them in with a traveling Goblin Merchant. The Wolves' Den is currently unavailable in FFXIV Mobile. Does this mean no PvP? Not exactly: there's a completed map with everything included, but you just can't access it. Maybe they'll save it for a later patch? No Hall of the Novice, Housing, nor Palace of the Dead either! Battle Classes & Jobs

      Classes have been condensed into levels 1-10, instead of 30. The class quests are considered part of the early-game and tutorial content, giving you gear and EXP. After you complete the level 10 class quest, you'll receive the class ring as a glamour and the associated job stone. Now I can be a White Mage starting at level 10! Also notably, you cannot remove the job stone once you equip it. I guess the developers realised Gladiators accidentally queuing into Labyrinth of the Ancients wasn't a good idea... Oops! Scholar and Summoner no longer share a level. Job quests are basically the same as it is in FFXIV, with updated quest rewards such as gear. Job actions have mostly been streamlined, possibly due to mobile limitations. But that doesn't mean Monk's job identity isn't there, I can still punch stuff! There are also new job actions and animations too, that aren't present in FFXIV. Speaking of job actions, FFXIV Mobile added a feature where, if you are a melee job and a certain distance from the target, your primary action button will automatically change from melee to ranged (such as Warrior's Tomahawk). If you're a ranged job like a caster instead, you it changes the action to an instant cast. Very handy for movement! There is also an evasive action button. Pretty self-explanatory, but different jobs have different animations, like dashing or rolling. For casters, you cannot slidecast -- you must finish the cast before doing another action. Thankfully, dying enemies won't interrupt the cast either: if the target dies mid-cast, the action will just automatically redirect to the next target. If you are using a healing action without a target, it will automatically target the party member with the lowest HP. Crafting and Gathering
      Disciples of the Land are basically the same, but with less buttons. Notably, Fisher has an unique UI feature that shows the Fishing Log for the current gathering location. Disciples of the Hand, on the other hand, have a job gauge called "Tension". Instead of two synthesis gauges to keep track of, progress and quality actions will shift the "tension" dial in opposite directions. If the dial is in a coloured zone near the end of the gauge, it can boost the efficiency of an action in the opposite direction. Certain actions can also manipulate the job gauge, removing the item's Condition state entirely. General materials (such as wood lumber) are only made with quick synthesis, with the option to pay Gil and skip the wait times. If you have the materials, you can also craft items in bulk with the same progress/quality gauge. After you have crafted the item and meet certain stat requirements, you can automatically craft the item instead.  If you're feeling kind of lazy, you can purchase materials with Gil easily through the crafting menu. If the item is available through NPC vendors, you can select how much of each item, and just pay directly on the one screen. No more travel time! Dungeons, Trials, and Alliance Raids
      Check out RablaAndrew's video on Labyrinth of the Ancients while you continue reading!

      Dungeons are largely the same, such as with quality of life updates or updated mapping. Notably, there are some not reworked yet, which suggests the current state of FFXIV Mobile is from somewhere between late Shadowbringers and early Endwalker. You can obtain Allagan Tomestones of Poetics immediately, even on jobs below level 50. This allows you to work on your level 50 gear progressively without having to intentionally grind. No optional chests as you move through dungeons! Cutter's Cry and Dzemael Darkhold are both dungeons not in the game. You can skip cutscenes in Castrum Meridianum and the Praetorium, even if it's your first time. No more waiting on Gaius to finish his speech! The Labyrinth of the Ancients alliance raid has been adjusted to accommodate only 8 players, not 24. There are also no loot restrictions, which is different from alliance raids on release. All of the story trial duties are now 8 player content and feature new mechanics. This includes Ifrit, Titan, and Garuda. Gold Saucer
      Bet you weren't expecting a section for this, now did you?

      GATEs and gameplay is largely the same, though the mini-game machines are slightly different from what we know. Fashion Report is completely different! Instead of guessing with individual hints for what to wear, you figure out the pieces based off the scores of different participating NPCs. For example, if a NPC has a low score, that means only a few pieces they're wearing matches the theme. If the NPC has a high score, they're probably wearing pieces that match the theme well! Thankfully, you don't have to own the glamours to participate in Fashion Report, you can just borrow gear instead. But you'll get bonus points if you actually own the glamour yourself! You can get 88 points maximum if you only borrow gear, and 100 points if you own everything~ Jumbo Cactpot now pays out extra MGP if any digit on your number matches the winning number. For example, if the winning number was 1234, both 1337 and 0004 would receive more MGP than 4321. RablaAndrew notes the minimum payout is 2,000 MGP, which is still better than nothing! If you win GATEs on the "Main Stage", you can also unlock an extra three Jumbo Cactpot tickets to purchase that week. The Mandervilles are truly generous in FFXIV Mobile! No Leap of Faith, Chocobo Racing/Breeding, Lord of Verminion, or Doman Mahjong. Darn it! Quality of Life and Other Changes
      Currently, there is only one data center available. All parties and linkshells are cross-world by default, and only Free Companies are limited to each world. Marketboards are cross-world. No more traveling to other worlds (maybe data centers too?)! You can also access them, along with any vendor store you can think of, anywhere in Eorzea through the main menu. A lot of glamour pieces are actual level 1 gear you wouldn't use for stat purposes. So these pieces either get automatically added to the Glamour Dresser or become an outfit on the Store. If you dye a glamour piece with a colour once, you can continue to re-dye it the same colour at no cost. Currently, 15 free Glamour Plates are available, and more can be bought with the paid currency. The glamour plates can be saved and linked to a job. If you meld materia onto a gear piece slot, it stays that way forever on the job. So if you melded on a Paladin's headpiece slot, and change the headpiece gear, the materia will stay the same. If you swap jobs, you'll have to re-meld accordingly. Inventory is shared between gear and normal items. You start with 300 slots, and can expand inventory slots from quests, events, battle pass rewards, or even by paying Gil. FFXIV Mobile is a 100% free-to-play game with optional monetization! Currently, you're not required to pay for any of the content unless you so choose. Feel free to read more about it in our news article! There are definitely parts of the post I have left out, and this is still long to read through! Again, a big thank you to RablaAndrews and the FFXIV_Mobile Reddit community for all of the information today! Be sure to check the game out if you're interested, and maybe we'll see these changes (or more!) added to the Global version of FFXIV Mobile!
