Final Fantasy 14 Players on Xbox Are Reportedly Getting Banned

Final Fantasy 14 is getting a graphical overhaul with the release of Dawntrail, but some fans aren't happy with what they're seeing so far. The graphical overhaul promises to give characters new visual depth and more refined appearances, something many have been hoping for now that Final Fantasy 14 is over a decade old.

Final Fantasy XVI famously didn't meet the sales expectations of Square Enix, though that was partly blamed on slower than anticipated adoption of the PlayStation 5 (the only platform where the game is currently available). However, there is at least one area where the developers reportedly hit their original goals. Speaking to Push Square, Final Fantasy XVI DLC Director Takeo Kujiraoka said:

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, the second part of the remake trilogy of the original game from 1997, was released in February. While developer Square Enix has not confirmed a launch date or the official title for the final game in the remake trilogy, the game should likely be released on PS5 sometime during the ongoing console generation cycle. Now, the studio has provided an update about the launch timeline for the third and final game in the Final Fantasy remake trilogy project.

Following the launch of the Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail benchmark, some players discovered an Easter egg that changes the default benchmark character to Hildibrand or Brandihild, depending on which PC time settings were changed. Final Fantasy 14 players shared the Easter egg on social media and discussed the methods that caused either character to appear.

During its annual 14-hour broadcast, Final Fantasy 14 revealed some amazing game statistics collected over the last decade. From the combined length of cutscenes to the total weight of Materia Final Fantasy 14 players have melded, these stats show just how popular the critically-acclaimed MMORPG has become.

Spoilers ahead for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.

Despite releasing to universal acclaim from both fans and critics, it appears that Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth may have failed to perform well sales-wise, according to a notable industry analyst. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth potentially underperforming may bring into question the popularity of the franchise as a whole.

The latest update for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth made an important change not mentioned in the patch notes by changing the wording of the retry screen. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth features all kinds of adrenaline-fueled, over-the-top battles. The action-packed encounters can be rather lengthy, especially when it comes to the game's multi-phase boss battles.

The highly anticipated game Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, the second installment in the ambitious Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy, received widespread critical acclaim when it launched in late February.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth enjoyed widespread critical acclaim upon its launch earlier in the year on a level that no game in the series has in a long, long time- though it seems that critical acclaim isn’t quite translating to commercial success in the manner that Square Enix would have hoped for.

Following the release of the Ultimania compilation for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, game producer Yoshinori Kitase stated that the development of the highly anticipated third entry in the series could lead to a shorter release window. Kitase said that Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth was developed in three years following Final Fantasy 7 Remake's Intermission DLC thanks to the retention of team members, which led to an efficient development period that he hopes to continue into Part 3.

Final Fantasy 14 fans are upset with the Crystarium Prodigy’s Attire – the newest online store outfit – because of its cost, limitations, and similarities to an existing gear set. While many of the optional Final Fantasy 14 cash shop glamours are popular, this outfit has left players feeling dissatisfied.
