Final Fantasy XIV takes the legendary franchise to an MMORPG setting, and thought it stumbled at first, it has since risen to great heights, with numerous expansions helping bring in more and more content, lands, and of course, players.

Final Fantasy XIV has been very successful, especially on PS3 were it debuted, and PS4 when it came out a year later. However, with the potential to get even more players, Square Enix wants to make a transfer over to the Xbox One. Final Fantasy 14 director Naoki Yoshida sees great potential in this. “Microsoft actually approached the Final Fantasy 14 team about the cross-platform opportunity,” Yoshida told Polygon. “When our team reviewed the regulations that are associated with that, we realized that Microsoft may not have the experience or understanding of running an MMORPG as an online game genre just yet. The Final Fantasy 14 team has fed back to Microsoft that there are certain elements of its regulations that we would have to consider waived. We’re waiting on Microsoft’s response for that, but we are having discussions.” However, Yoshida isn’t going to abandon the PS3 supporters, stating that he will continue to given them content and updates for the forseeable future. “At this point, we’ve already declared that

Just because a game, or a franchise is on a system, doesn’t mean every game from that franchise will be on a singular systems. Exclusivity may be a lifeblood for some, but not necessarily for others. Final Fantasy used to be on Nintendo, then it went to Sony, then also went to Xbox One as well. Final Fantasy XIV however has been on PS4 for awhile now, and no signs of it moving to Xbox One. Xbox President Phil Spencer was asked about this by IGN, and he noted: “It’s business,” he said, adding he couldn’t speak too candidly about the matter. “As I’ve grow in this role, and I’ve tried to learn the third-party exclusivity thing – and you see us doing less of it now – [I’ve found] it’s not something I’m a huge fan of.” “Different kind of deals happen, and I know that’s part of this busienss, and maybe it’ll be my failing in the end,” he says, laughing. “But it’s not something I specifically embrace

The next update for Final Fantasy 14, the first one to come after the Heavensward expansion, has been broken down via a “Letter From The Producer”, which you can see fully on the Square-Enix Forums. Here are the big takeaways from the update: First up, there will be a new chapter of the main story quest, along with a new side quest line named Saint Endalim Scholasticate and new Vanu Vanu beast tribe quests for you to enjoy.

Square Enix has released a new gameplay video showing some Dungeon Crawl gameplay for Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward, the first expansion pack for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. The new gameplay video is available in the player below. Originally, Heavensward was first revealed to players in 2014 at the North America Fan Festival on October 14. This recent dungeon crawl video debuted at the end of a lengthy Letter from the Producer Live XXI. You will notice that the new Dungeon Crawl footage showcases the open-air dungeon and flying mount travel. It provides a nice tour through various locations from Heavensward, both interior and exterior. There is also a brief look at what is purported to be a new Raide inside the Primal Alexander. The locations and creatures in the video definitely look like a sight to behold and very true to the Final Fantasy franchise. The video is also set to some beautiful new orchestral music, which I assume was composed for Heavensward as well. Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward
