Final Fantasy XIV fans are gearing up for their journey into Dawntrail, as the expansion's early access release is less than a month away. To make the month-long wait a little easier, the developers have released the expansion's launch website, which details previously speculated plot points.
FINAL FANTASY XIV: DAWNTRAIL – New Job: Viper
Some of the notable information on the website concerns the new dungeons and raids that players can take on as they journey through Dawntrail. Many of these locations will feature in the main story of Final Fantasy XIV, giving us small details about what to expect in terms of the overall plot. Given the previous expansion stories in Shadowbringers and Endwalker, things will be much lighter in Dawntrail, but there is still danger to be found in this heartfelt adventure.
The Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail website features multiple screenshots of the upcoming dungeons, as well as a reveal for the upcoming raid series, The Arcadion. We'll have to wait a little longer to learn more about the dungeons themselves, but we did get a decent breakdown of the raid. The launch website gives us a clear breakdown, revealing that it's a "grand spectacle" and will have a gladiator-style tournament theme, pitting adventurers against the most fearsome fighters in the region.
We also got a small glimpse at the upcoming Futures Rewritten ultimate raid series, but we don’t have much more to offer beyond a brief snippet of the Rewritten Raid’s story. We learned that it focuses on two women fascinated by the endless possibilities of the future, and how small, simple choices can change everyone’s fate. Information is scarce, but the Final Fantasy XIV developers are keen to keep these details as spoiler-free as possible so that fans can enjoy it from the moment they first experience it.
