E309: Final Fantasy XIV Online announced
In the early hours of the morning, Sony's press conference came to a resounding conclusion with a rather unique announcement.
Final Fantasy 14 Online was revealed to be Square's newest MMORPG, following in the footsteps of Final Fantasy 11 Online. It is uncertain at this time as to how much longer FF11 support will continue for, but we can only assume that it will be indefinite.
Final Fantasy 14 will be set in the world of 'Eorzea', however it is unclear at this point as to whether this will be related to the Vana'Diel adventures in any way. However we can most certainly conclude that the 'announcement' last week regarding FF11 coming to PlayStation 3 was untrue - "a new FF MMO" would have been more accurate.
You can check out the trailer below.
Final Fantasy 14 Online will be releasing only on PlayStation 3 and PC sometime during 2010. We'll get back to you with more info as we have it.
