Information has been released, and it is good.
Oh so very good.
September 30, 2010 is when Final Fantasy XIV hits the shelves, and hopefully Digital Distribution, for the PC alone. The PS3 version should be arriving sometime in March for 2011.
While the beta should start letting opt-ins play in early July, if you Preorder the 79.99 Collectors editions you are guaranteed a beta opt-in eight days prior to release along with various items associated with the game.
The specs have also been released, and they are surprisingly low… at least for my ASUS.
So get out and preorder in the name of Eorzea, I think my pants are dripping with excitement!
Get ready to play!

Ohhhh, fuck my life. Or what life I had. Ahhh. Frick.
Nice this gives me enough time to get my cable working for my gaming computer thanks Travis for the update cant wait to ride chocobos across ivalice
… not ivalice silly, its Eorzea
Oh man this is tempting..
ohhh is that an authenticator i see
, i just got mine for wow a few weeks ago
but i think im going to be switching to this
I have a question. What is the little key-chain like item in the lower right corner of the picture? Is it just a perk for reserving it, or does it doe something relevant?
Its an Authenticator. Basically it randomly generates a code you have to put in when you want to log into the game. Makes it harder for people to hack into your account.
Beast…
your comments suck ass
Oh. My. God. *preorder!!!*
Yes. YES. YESSSSSSSS. I look forward to adventuring in this new world of Eorzea.
PC players get such a head start???
now I want a new pc so I can actually play this game…
fucking stupid that they said simultaneous release for PS3 and PC.. and this shit happens.
i registered for the beta, hopefully i will be able to try it out. If i love the beta, i will most def buy this game.
oooohhh man that is going to be a good day. i can not wait. thx for letting us know bro
Darn, I havent prepared my PC for this. I was preparing to get the PS3 one for this, but it’s coming next year? Now I have made the choice to go PC for this game now. I need some serious upgrading to my laptop.
The good thing about PC getting it early: by the time I play the PS3 version, there will be a guide for unlocking classes and stuff that’s good to know from the very start.
really travis i always thought the way final fantasy 12 they were trying to create a overlapping country i just assumed it was in ff11 was in ivalice too my bad
Ivalice has only been in Tactics games, xii and Vagrant Stories.
hell yeah I will pre order this… just later in the year.. I wont be getting around these months but maybe some time in October or November and Is that a limited edition? if so then I will pre order the limited edition
If they go with the server system (which I REALLY hope they avoid) I hope you will fill the community in on what server to hop onto ;P
Also on a side note, take a look at the release dates for NA PS2/PC FFXI.
PC: October 28, 2003
PS2: March 23, 2004
It’s odd though since XI was first released on PS2 in Japan. Yet, If XIV going to be primarily developed for the PC instead of PS3, the game SHOULD have a healthier lifespan. I just don’t want to hear the excuse new features were limited by PS3 technology in the coming years… that bummed me out with XI.
Oh wow, those are some low requirements. 2.0GHz and 2 gigs of RAM sounds like some 2005 mess.
I’m excited to play this game at 75 frames per second.
awesome
