Final Fantasy XIV Online Upgrades To Patch 5.45

We’ve got a new patch for Final Fantasy XIV Online! Patch 5.45 is now available on all versions of the game (PC, Mac and PS4). The feature attraction of this update is the new chapter in the “Save The Queen” multi-part quest series written by Yasumi Matsuno. The battle for the Bozjan southern front continues, and also introduces Delubrum Reginae — a new large-scale battle set in the ruins of Queen Gunnhildr’s kingdom.

Other fresh content includes updates to some weapons and tools, plus more cosmetic items to collect. Here’s the full bullet list:

• Resistance Weapon Quests Update: “Save the Queen: Past to Rest” – The battle for the southern front wages on, and having failed to retake Castrum Lacus Litore, chances of victory appear slim for the Resistance. This next exciting chapter of the “Save the Queen” quest series continues the story penned by renowned game designer Yasumi Matsuno.
• New Large-Scale Battle Content: “Delubrum Reginae” – This new battle content includes a 24-player normal mode and high-difficulty 48-player savage mode for players to undertake.
• Resistance Weapon Updates – Players who advance the “Save the Queen” questline will be able to further upgrade their Resistance Weapons an additional two tiers in Patch 5.45. The second upgrade tier will also allow players to customize certain parameters on the weapon to match their playstyle.
• Blue Mage Update – Blue mage receives a number of new updates, including an increased level cap to 70, new blue magic to learn from enemies, new job-specific equipment, and additions to the Blue Mage Log.
• Skysteel Tool Update – Disciples of the Land and Hand can further upgrade their Skysteel Tools to aid in crafting and gathering.
• New emotes, hair styles, furnishings, mounts, minions, fashion accessories and more.

We’ll learn even more about the update when the “FINAL FANTASY XIV Announcement Showcase” livestream broadcasts later today. Tune into YouTube Live or the FINAL FANTASY XIV Online Twitch channel around 5:30 PM Pacific / 8:30 PM Eastern for some live announcements from Square.
