The issues are being investigated and addressed, and additional information will follow as the situation develops.

[Current Known Issues]

[Follow-up]Known Issues Following the Release of Patch 7.1 (Nov. 13): Follow-Up

We currently have an update regarding the following water related issues that were brought to our attention:

  • Inability to fish in Eastern Thanalan.
  • Character's walking animation above water not being properly displayed in Eastern Thanalan.

From our investigation in Patch 7.1, we were able to confirm that when the graphics data for the water surface area of East Thanalan was modified, the collision detection was not properly calibrated. As a result of this, any actions related to water (fishing, walking etc.) will not be processed correctly.

As this issue involves re-modification of the graphics data, this will be fixed in Patch 7.11

We apologise for the inconvenience this has caused and appreciate your patience.

Actions Taken Against In-Game RMT & Other Illicit Activities (Nov. 14)-

Real money trading (RMT) and other illicit activities upset the balance of the game and, as such, are prohibited under the Terms of Service.

We have confirmed that a number of players are engaging in these illicit activities and have therefore taken the actions listed below.

Time Period: Nov. 7, 2024 to Nov. 13, 2024

・Participation in RMT/prohibited activities
　・Accounts terminated: 835
　・Accounts temporarily suspended: 54

・Botting activity (excluding RMT vendors)
　・Accounts terminated: 12
　・Accounts temporarily suspended: 33
*Botting activity by RMT vendors has been included under "Participation in RMT/prohibited activities."

・RMT advertising
　・Accounts terminated: 3,253

Anyone who discovers any exploits should, under no circumstances, take advantage of or disseminate such information. Instead, we ask that players file a report by using the in-game command [System Menu] -> [Support Desk] -> [Contact Us] -> [Report Cheating].

In addition, RMT advertising can be reported by right-clicking the offending character’s name in the chat log, and selecting [Report]>[Report RMT activity]. The report will be processed automatically, and if determined to be involved in RMT advertising, the reported character's comments will be restricted.

We will continue to take stringent disciplinary action against any accounts involved in RMT/prohibited activities. Players should take care to avoid any activities that violate the Terms of Service.

Known Issue Following the Release of Patch 7.1 (Nov. 14)-

We have identified the issue listed below.

The issue is being investigated and addressed, and additional information will follow as the situation develops.

[Current Known Issue]

  • In the alliance raid dungeon Jeuno: The First Walk, equipment is not reflected in the duty finder's "Reward already received" count.
    *If the two other reward items aside from equipment are received, the "Reward already received" count will display as "2/2", making it seem as if all available rewards for that round have been received, when this is not the case. Please be aware when confirming whether the equipment reward has been received.

We apologise for the inconvenience.

News Update!
Regarding DUALSHOCK®4 use on the Windows® version via Bluetooth® connection (Nov. 15)-

We have received multiple reports that when using a DUALSHOCK®4 connected via Bluetooth® on a Windows® PC, the game pad is recognised by the PC but not by the FINAL FANTASY XIV client.

Through our investigation we have confirmed that when the fix was implemented for a processing issue related to the DualSense™ wireless controller in Patch 7.1, the processing for the DUALSHOCK®4 was adjusted based on the prerequisite that it would be connected properly, and as a result the wireless connection for the DUALSHOCK®4 became unstable in certain environments.

■Regarding the use of a DUALSHOCK®4 wireless connection
As announced in the patch notes for Patch 6.0, when using a DUALSHOCK®4 through a wireless connection, various functions can only be used when connected via the “Wireless Adapter CUH-ZWA1x (the “x” will differ depending on the region it is sold) (Hereafter referred to as specified wireless adapter)”.

However, as a result of the handling in Patch 7.1, issues occurred where things that had previously worked ceased working, and as we were unable to notify players in advance, in Patch 7.11 we will adjust the relevant processing so that DUALSHOCK®4 Bluetooth® connections that do not go through the specified wireless adapter will be recognised as general-purpose input devices.

This may allow the use of the controller in the same environment as before Patch 7.1, but we kindly ask for your understanding that this is not an official connection procedure.

In addition, please try to use the specified wireless adapter as much as possible when connecting, or as sales and support for the DUALSHOCK®4 is ending, we would appreciate it if you could consider using another game pad.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused, and we thank you for your understanding.

Colour Change for “Brand-new Alisaie's Attire” Available in Online Store Products (Nov. 19)-

Since Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024 9:20 (GMT) / Nov. 12, 2024 20:20 (AEDT) (when patch 7.1 was released), the colours of some of the “Brand-new Alisaie's Attire” available in the online store have been changed. The colours were different from the original colours of Alisaie's costume in game, and have been corrected to match those colours.

Products purchased prior to the release of Patch 7.1 have also been updated to reflect the revised appearance.

New Year's Greetings!

Happy New Year to FFXIVers near and far!This is Producer & Director Naoki Yoshida.Beyond a boiling hot summer and an almost non-existent autumn, we've wintered through the end of the year and into 2025... I was announced as head of the old FFXIV on December 10, 2010; so for me, this marks my fifteenth year on the project. We naturally tend to value anniversaries in fives, like the fifth or the tenth, but now half of my career as a game developer has been happily devoted to FINAL FANTASY XIV. That I've been able to come this far and make so many incredible memories is because of you, Warriors of Light. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you!Last year marked a new beginning for the reborn FFXIV with the release of our fifth major expansion, Dawntrail. Patch 7.1 gave us a sense of the trouble brewing for the Warrior of Light, so I hope you'll join us this year for Patches 7.2 and 7.3, where you'll experience some exciting twists and catch a glimpse of adventures yet to come.My own work is focused even further ahead, as I wrestle with a certain storyboarding task. A recent conversation with the Community team went something like:“Korea was the last stop of our Fan Festival tour, wasn't it?” “Yup.” “So what are we doing after Fan Fest?” “Don't you know? The next Fan Fest begins!”So we're already preparing for even greater developments to all FFXIV has to offer.After fifteen years, these sorts of preparations have become something of a year-end tradition, but I have to admit, thinking up new ideas never fails to thrill, and I can hardly wait to see you all again in person....And it would seem this particular tradition persists as well.

[Important]Temporary Suspension of Automatic Housing Demolition

From all of us on the FFXIV development and management team, our hearts go out to those who were affected by the mountain fires that occurred around Los Angeles in North America.

Due to the damages and other factors, we have decided to temporarily suspend the automatic demolition of estates.

Date and time of the auto-demolition counter suspension:
Friday, Jan. 10, 2025 4:20 (GMT)
Friday, Jan. 10, 2025 15:20 (AEDT)

Worlds affected by the auto-demolition suspension: All the Worlds under Aether Data Centre/Crystal Data Centre/Dynamis Data Centre/Primal Data Centre

  • After the above date and time, the counter will stop completely.
  • If your estate or land is currently being prepared for auto-demolition, you can cancel this status by entering your estate or constructing an estate on your land.
  • The auto-demolition counter will resume from the time remaining as of the temporary suspension. (Excludes estates/lands where the demolition process has been cancelled.)

As for when the auto-demolition will resume, we will monitor the situation in the coming days and inform you all when we have come to a decision.

It is our sincere hope that recovery is swift, and those of you who were affected will be able to re-join us in FFXIV soon.

As notified in the 7.16 Patch Notes, a partial design change has been made to the "G'raha Tia's Attire" costume set sold on the Online Store.

When equipped on male and female characters of races other than Miqo'te, Au Ra or Hrothgar, a portion of "G'raha Tia's Attire" differed from the original design equipped by G'raha Tia in-game. This has now been corrected.

The costume's design change has been reflected on items purchased before Patch 7.16 as well.

[Important]Purchasing FINAL FANTASY XIV Game Time Cards/Codes

We have recently identified a significant increase in the redemption of FINAL FANTASY XIV 60-day Game Time Cards/Codes (GTCs), which have been obtained fraudulently.

Many of these GTCs have been illegally obtained from official retailers, typically using stolen credit cards or other compromised data, and are then sold at a discount on third-party sites. Until now, when we determined that a GTC was obtained fraudulently we would invalidate it before it could be used. However, if the GTC was already redeemed, we would give the benefit of the doubt that the user did not know it was fraudulently obtained and would not penalise the account.

While the fraudulent transaction may not have been made by the person who redeemed the code, purchasing codes from unlicensed sites indirectly supports these illegal activities. To reduce these illegal transactions, we will begin suspending accounts that have redeemed a fraudulently obtained GTC.

If you believe your account has been suspended due to the redemption of a GTC, please contact the Support Centre (https://sqex.to/EXgIu) to regain access to the account. As part of regaining account access, the redeemer of the fraudulently obtained GTC will need to pay Square Enix the retail value of the GTC.

To ensure that you purchase legitimate GTCs, we recommend only buying from your local game retailer or official online retailers.

Retailers selling GTCs for American FFXIV accounts:

  • Square Enix Store (Americas)
  • Amazon
  • Newegg
  • Gamestop

Retailers selling GTCs for European FFXIV accounts:

  • Square Enix Store (Europe)
  • Amazon

We appreciate your assistance and understanding as we work to counter fraudulent activities.

FINAL FANTASY XIV Hotfixes (Mar. 26, 2025)-

■A temporary fix has been implemented for the issue of the list of items and the number of items required to trade for Crafter's Master Recipes being displayed incorrectly at various Sundry Splendors such as "Rowena's Representative", "Mowen's Merchant", and "Agora Merchant."

*Due to a client update being required to address this issue, as a temporary measure to prevent the issue from spreading, we have made it so that an error will be displayed and you will be unable to perform the exchange when exchanging for Crafting Master Recipes (11) using 1200 purple crafters' scrip at the Sundry Splendors. When exchanging for Crafting Master Recipes (11) or Crafting Master Recipes (12), please use the scrip exchange located in various areas.

We apologise for the inconvenience.

News Update!
Regarding Cosmic Exploration Issues and Frequently Received Inquiries (Apr. 24)-

We would like to inform you regarding the confirmed issues related to Cosmic Exploration as well as frequently inquired topics.

■Known Issues
・For stellar missions in which aetherial reduction is carried out, the automatic aethereal reduction window may fail to close if the stellar mission objective is completed while the reduction is in progress.
*If this issue occurs, performing a stellar return will make it possible to close the window.
・During Cosmic Exploration, the time between the issuance of a mech op directive and the start of the operation would be shortened under certain conditions.
・During Cosmic Exploration, the standard synthesis, quick synthesis, and trial synthesis can be performed while a crafter's stellar mission is in progress.

■Other frequently received inquiries
・During miner/botanist stellar missions, mineral deposits and quarries/mature trees and lush vegetation patches are not being displayed.

*Based on the details of the inquiries and received videos, it appears that the cause is likely due to the effects of “Prospect” and “Triangulate” expiring, which are used to make the mineral deposits and quarries/mature trees and lush vegetation patches visible.

We believe there is the possibility that when participating in mech ops and switching to the dedicated hotbar and repeatedly performing the mech ops specific actions may cause the “Prospect” and “Triangulate” actions to be mistakenly executed when switching back to the regular hotbar after the mech ops has ended, thereby disabling their effects.

We are continuing to investigate whether this issue is due to some other cause, but if mineral deposits and quarries/mature trees and lush vegetation patches are not being displayed, please check whether the “Prospect” and “Triangulate” effects are active. If they are inactive, please try executing the “Prospect” and “Triangulate” actions or switch to a different job and then switch back to miner/botanist as this will automatically activate these effects.

・During miner/botanist stellar missions, certain required items for the mission cannot be obtained.

*Based on the details of the inquiries, it appears that some players are unaware that after gathering, aetherial reduction is required to obtain the specified items for the stellar missions. We believe this is due to an issue with the display of the duty list which may have led to confusion. We will review addressing this in a future patch.

Aetherial reduction is currently required for the following stellar missions.

▽Miner
Class B Missions

  • Stellar Repair Materials

Class A Missions

  • A-2: Alchemical Refinement Materials
  • A-3: Rare Material Extraction
  • A-3: Fine-grade Water Filter Materials II
  • A-3: Folkloric Materials I
  • A-3: Folkloric Materials III

Known Issue Regarding the Designation of Cosmic Explorer's Star Contributor (May, 1)-

We have confirmed that the process related to the designation of Star Contributor is not operating properly in cosmic explorer and is currently in the following state:

・The Star Contributor for Apr. 29, 2025 is now in a state where no one has been designated. (Loporrit has been designated).
・As a result of the above, the Star Contributors from Apr. 25, 2025 to Apr. 29, 2025 have been shifted and treated as the Star Contributor from one day earlier. With this, the period of the designation has become 12 days.
・The Star Contributor for Apr. 23, 2025 is no longer recognised as the Star Contributor eight days later.

Upon investigation, it has been determined that the problem was caused by an issue in synchronising multiple instances in the process of calculating the number of days elapsed since the release of cosmic explorer, resulting in a gap in calculation. This issue affects only the processing on May 1, 2025 9:00 (GMT), May 1, 2025 10:00 (BST) and May 1, 2025 19:00 (AEST), and the processing is expected to be normal thereafter.

Please note that it will be difficult for the system to correct the current data which has already been shifted, and we apologise for the inconvenience to all the Star Contributors from Apr. 23, 2025 to Apr. 29, 2025. Unfortunately, we will not be able to guarantee the original 14-day award period.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience.

[Follow-up]Known Issue with the Designation of Cosmic Explorer's Star Contributor (May 1): Follow-up

We would like to provide an update on the issue related to the designation of Star Contributor.

We are continuing to investigate the issue and plan to update the server program in order to improve stability. Therefore, we will be conducting a brief emergency maintenance today on the Sinus Ardorum area in all Worlds.
The affected area will be unavailable during the emergency maintenance.
We apologise for the inconvenience and kindly ask for your understanding.

We once again apologise to those designated as Star Contributor who were affected by this issue. As stated yesterday, it will be extremely difficult to guarantee the original 14-day award period.
However, as an apology for the inconvenience caused, we will be compensating a certain number of Cosmocredits and Lunar Credits. GMs will inform individuals separately at a later date, so we kindly ask for your patience.
Additionally, as compensation for the shortened award period, we are currently reviewing the creation of a special item that will grant the “Star Contributor” status. We are also reviewing taking special action regarding the display of the Starward Standings Stela.
Each of these requires further development and will be implemented at a later date. Please wait for further notice.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience.

News Update!
Known Issue with the Designation of Cosmic Explorer's Star Contributor (May 27)-

We have confirmed an issue that when Star Contributors are designated, during the few milliseconds when switching between the tallying period and the non-tallying period of the Starward Standings, if a character eligible for the Star Contributor performs an action that would add to their Starward Standings, the Starward Standings status of that character would become abnormal.

As a result of this abnormal status, it would be incorrectly determined that there were no characters who had accumulated contributions on the day of the Star Contributor designation process and Loporrit would be designated.

After investigating on all Worlds, we have confirmed that only one character was affected by this issue. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience.

We would like to inform you of the measures that have already been taken and will be taken moving forward regarding this issue.

■Timing for Addressing This Issue
The cause of this issue has already been identified, and we are currently working on addressing and verifying it.
We expect to complete verifications within a few days and once complete, will perform a brief Several Areas Emergency Maintenance for Sinus Ardorum on all Worlds.
We will make another announcement once the schedule for the emergency maintenance has been decided.

■Data Correction and Compensation for the Affected Character
The data of the affected character was corrected during the maintenance performed today.
At present, the data is being displayed on the Starward Standings Stela as if it had been designated on the relevant day May 23, and the customer can obtain the “Star Contributor” effect.

However, considering the shortened award period from the originally planned 14 days, we are compensating a certain number of Cosmocredits and Lunar Credits as an apology. A GM will notify the affected customer individually at a later date and we kindly ask for your patience.

Also, similar to the issue we announced the other day, we are considering measures such as distributing a special item that grants the "Star Contributor" status to users as compensation for the shortened award period. We are also considering additional special measures regarding the display on the Starward Standings Stela.
As each of these will require separate development times, we are planning to address them at a later date. We will keep you updated and thank you for your patience.

We sincerely apologise for the repeated inconvenience caused by this issue.

News Update!
[Important]Regarding the End of Windows® 10 Support / System Requirements Update

FINAL FANTASY XIV support for Windows® 10 will end on October 14, 2025.

Microsoft will no longer provide security updates or support for PCs running Windows® 10 after October 14, 2025 so we have found that continuing support for this operating system is a difficult proposition.

You will likely be able to play FINAL FANTASY XIV on Windows® 10 systems even after the end of support. However, after we discontinue support, we will as a general rule no longer be able to provide support for problems arising as a result of the operating system.

Square Enix may respond to requests for technical support regarding Windows® 10 issues after the end of support, but such informal support will be limited, on a case-by-case basis, and is not guaranteed.

In addition, to accompany this change, the OS/CPU requirements for the Windows® version will be updated on October 14, 2025. Please see below for the updated requirements.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

*This issue is currently being investigated. However, this issue will not occur if you wait for a little while after the battlefield is unsealed. Until this issue has been resolved, we kindly ask you that you wait for about 10 seconds to move after being wiped and the battlefield is unsealed.

Known Issues: Client May Crash Under Certain Conditions (Aug. 7)-

We have confirmed issues where the client may crash under certain conditions. Upon investigation, please find below the details of multiple situations where this problem occurs along with temporary workarounds.

■Issue ①: Client may crash upon exiting a duty
We have confirmed that the client may crash when exiting a duty if more than 101 entries are registered in the blacklist.

We have received many reports that this occurs when exiting to housing areas.
However, it is not limited to housing areas and may occur in all areas depending on the content and volume of communication between the server and client when exiting from a duty.

This issue will be addressed with a HotFix on Friday, 8th of August.

■Issue ②: Client may crash when receiving a chat
We have confirmed that the client may crash under certain conditions when the "Maximum Display Count" for chat bubbles is changed to a lower value in Chat Bubble Settings > General Settings > Basic Settings.

We have also confirmed that this issue can be avoided by either logging out and back in, or by disabling and then re-enabling chat bubbles after changing the "Maximum Display Count" to a lower value.
We kindly ask you to try one of the above methods to avoid the issue.

■Issue ③: The client may crash upon closing the tutorial window for transportation or escort quests.
Under certain conditions upon closing the tutorial-specific explanation window for quests such as transportation and escort quests, we have confirmed that the client may force close.

This issue will not occur when the tutorial-specific explanation window opens automatically for the first time and will only occur when the tutorial-specific explanation window is opened and closed from the objective list or chat log link. Therefore, we kindly ask that you refrain from opening the tutorial-specific explanation window from the "?" icon displayed.

Additionally, we ask for your patience as it is expected to take time to address issues ② and ③.

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

[Important]Purchasing Genuine FINAL FANTASY XIV Game Codes

We have recently identified an increase in the redemption of FINAL FANTASY XIV game codes, which have been obtained fraudulently. These codes include FINAL FANTASY XIV Starter Edition, Complete Edition, and the Dawntrail Expansion.

Many of these game codes have been illegally obtained from official retailers, typically using stolen credit cards or other compromised data, and are then sold at a discount on third-party sites.

Until now, when we determined that a game code was obtained fraudulently, we would invalidate it before it could be used. However, if the game code had already been redeemed, we would give the benefit of the doubt that the user did not know it was fraudulently obtained and would not penalise the account.

While the fraudulent transaction may not have been made by the person who redeemed the code, purchasing codes from unlicensed sites supports and perpetuates these illegal activities. To reduce these illegal transactions, we will begin suspending accounts which have redeemed a fraudulently obtained FINAL FANTASY XIV game codes.

If you believe your account has been suspended due to the redemption of a FINAL FANTASY XIV game code, please contact the Support Centre (https://sqex.to/FFXIVsupport) to regain access to the account. In order to regain account access, it will be necessary to pay SQUARE ENIX the full retail value of the revoked game code as well as the outstanding retail value of any additional fraudulent redemptions or purchases.

To ensure that you purchase legitimate FINAL FANTASY XIV Game Codes, we recommend only buying from your local game retailer or official online retailers.

Retailers selling FINAL FANTASY XIV Game Codes for American FFXIV accounts:

  • Square Enix Store (Americas)
  • GameStop
  • Green Man Gaming
  • Humble Bundle
  • Newegg
  • Steam

Retailers selling FINAL FANTASY XIV Game Codes for European FFXIV accounts:

  • Square Enix Store (Europe)
  • Green Man Gaming
  • Humble Bundle
  • Steam

We appreciate your assistance and understanding as we work to counter fraudulent activities.

Known Issues Following the Release of Patch 7.4 (Dec. 18)-

As of Dec. 18, 2025, we have identified the issues listed below.
These are currently being investigated and addressed, and additional information will follow as the situation develops.

[Current Known Issues]

-During a Group Pose, the client may freeze when taking a photo in portrait mode under specific conditions. (Windows®/Mac version only)

Upon investigation, this issue may occur when taking a photo in portrait mode without having "Remove Aspect Ratio Limits" checked on while the system configuration resolution is set to a widescreen format wider than 16:9. When taking a photo under these circumstances, the system adjusts the screen to a 16:9 aspect ratio. However, during this process, the client may freeze depending on your PC environment.

Should you be using the said environment, enabling the "Remove Aspect Ratio Limits" option will allow you to record in portrait mode without the client freezing. However, please note that removing the aspect ratio limit means the recording will occur at your current resolution rather than being adjusted to a 16:9 aspect ratio. We would appreciate it if you could test this within the scope of what is possible.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this may have caused and we thank you for your patience until the issue is resolved.

Regarding Colour Corrections for the “Zero’s Attire” Sold in Online Store-

Starting at Dec. 16, 2025 11:00 (GMT) / 22:00 (AEDT) (the time Patch 7.4 went live), some colours of the “Zero’s Attire” sold in the online store were incorrect.

Regarding this issue, we have implemented a fix via today's hotfix. As a result, the costume worn by Zero in the game has now been restored to its original colour, consistent with versions prior to Patch 7.4.

Visual fixes have been applied to items purchased between the release of Patch 7.4 and today's hotfix.

For inquiries regarding this matter, please contact the support centre.

Automatic Disbandment of Crossworld Link Shell/PvP Team/Fellowship in NA Data Centre Worlds (Dec. 19)-

We have confirmed that some Crossworld Link Shells, PvP teams, and Fellowships in NA Data Centre Worlds have been automatically disbanded.

Details are currently under investigation, but it is believed this issue occurred due to a database server problem during maintenance on Tuesday, Dec. 16, 2025. This caused some members of Cross World Link Shells, PvP Teams, and Fellowships in NA Data Centre Worlds to be mistakenly recognised as absent. Consequently, the automatic disbandment triggered by member absence was activated, leading to this incident.

We are continuing our detailed investigation and exploring recovery methods. We will provide an update as soon as there is progress in the situation.
We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and kindly ask for your patience as we work to resolve this issue.

Known Issues Following the Release of Patch 7.4 (Dec. 22)-

We have identified the issue listed below.
The issue is being investigated and addressed, and additional information will follow as the situation develops.

[Current Known Issue]

■When attempting to save an Adventurer Plate portrait, an error message stating that the requirements have not been met is displayed, preventing the portrait from being saved. This happens under the following conditions:

  • A Scholar's Arms glamour is applied to an Arcanist's Grimoire while playing as Summoner/Arcanist.
  • An Arcanist's Grimoire glamour is applied to a Scholar's Arms while playing as Scholar.
  • A glamour is applied for job-exclusive equipment that cannot be equipped by the character's current class.

*This issue does not affect duty related portraits.
*This issue was caused by an oversight in the processing of adventurer plates during the system changes to glamours introduced in Patch 7.4. We plan to address these issues in an upcoming hotfix. We kindly ask for your patience until the fixes are implemented.
*The ability to apply these glamours is as intended and will remain possible.

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused.

News Update!
[Follow-up]Automatic Disbandment of CWLS/PvP Teams/Fellowships in NA Data Centre Worlds (Dec. 19): Follow-up

We have an update regarding the automatic disbandment of Cross-world Linkshells/PvP Teams/Fellowships which occurred in NA Data Centre Worlds.

■Issue Details
We have confirmed that a lobby database server issue occured during the maintenance on Tuesday, 16 December 2025, causing some in-game groups to be incorrectly treated as having no members, automatically triggering their disbandment.

As a note, this issue only occurred from the time the issue arose and then was resolved during the maintenance work on Tuesday, 16 December 2025. Therefore, this issue has not occurred since the maintenance ended.

■ Cross-world Linkshell Support
We have restored the Cross-world Linkshells that were disbanded during the emergency maintenance performed on Thursday, 25 December 2025.

▼Cases where the maximum number of Cross-world Linkshells has been exceeded due to recovery
If the recovery process has caused you to exceed the maximum number of Cross-world Linkshells you can join (8), any Cross-world Linkshells exceeding this limit will be in a state where you are still joined but they will not appear on your list and you will be unable to chat. If you are exceeding the maximum amount, a message will appear upon login informing you about this. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience, but please kindly leave any unnecessary Cross-world Linkshells to adjust your count to below the maximum amount.

Additionally, the listing of your Cross-world Linkshells will have to be reorganised to your preference. So, first, leave any unnecessary Cross-world Linkshells. Then, from the gear icon in the Cross-world Linkshell window, please reset the sorting order.

▼Cases where Cross-world Linkshells with identical names were created due to recovery
We have confirmed a number of cases where, after a Cross-world Linkshell was automatically disbanded, another Cross-world Linkshell was created with the same name.

Since Cross-world Linkshells with identical names cannot exist within the same logical data centre, we have added a "#" to the end of the newly created Cross-world Linkshell's name. Had this issue not caused automatic disbandment to occur, it would have been impossible to create a new Cross-world Linkshell with the same name; therefore, we have determined that the original Cross-world Linkshell that was forcibly dissolved retains the right to use that name.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience, but if a "#" has been added to your Cross-world Linkshell name, please change to any other desired name via the Cross-world Linkshell submenu.

■Fellowships
A detailed investigation confirmed that in addition to the automatic disbandments, there were cases where players were forced to leave a fellowship without it being disbanded.

During the emergency maintenance implemented on Thursday, December 24, 2025, we implemented the following fixes for the disbandments and cases where players were forced to leave their fellowship.

▼Addressing automatically disbanded fellowships
We have restored the forcibly disbanded fellowships.

▼Addressing cases where players were forced to leave
We have added characters back to their fellowships to the extent possible. However, restoration was difficult due to data issues in the following cases. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and kindly ask for your understanding.

・Cases where the affected fellowship had reached its maximum member capacity of 1,000 members
・Cases where players frequently left and joined the affected fellowship making restoration impossible due to data issues

▼Cases where restoration caused the maximum number of joined fellowships to be exceeded
If the restoration causes you to exceed the maximum number of 10 fellowships, any fellowships exceeding this limit will be in a state where you are still joined but they will not appear on your list. If you are exceeding the maximum amount, a message will appear upon login informing you about this. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience, but please kindly le

New Year's Greetings!

Happy new year to all you FFXIVers out there!This is Producer & Director Naoki Yoshida.We ended last year with the release of Patch 7.4 on December 16, and I hope Warriors of Light the world over are enjoying a memorable holiday season both at home and in Eorzea. The Development team has already finished preparations for the release of the savage tier raid, along with a number of other updates, so I'm pleased to say they're all taking a hard-earned rest.That said, it won't be long before April is here, and with it the next Fan Festival. There will be plenty to share about what's next for FFXIV, so it'll be full steam ahead when we return to the office!This year marks thirteen years since the release of A Realm Reborn. The state of the world and the way we live in it have changed considerably in that time, even if we tend not to notice the gradual shifts that shape our lives day by day. Even having worked primarily with FFXIV throughout these years, I can't help but feel the weight of those changes as I pause to reflect.FFXIV has already taken its first step on a new ten-year journey, and this year will mark an especially significant second step. As I said, the world is changing, and FFXIV must be ready to change alongside it—reflecting the demands of an evolving market, as well as the ways you live and play. Drawing on everything we've learned, we are fully committed to delivering new experiences and fresh surprises in the years ahead. I hope you're looking forward to the next update, as well as everything we have planned for the upcoming Fan Festivals!...And just as I was contemplating my keynote speech, what should I find but this note slid under my office door.

Automatic Disbandment of CWLS/PvP Teams/Fellowships in NA Data Centre Worlds (Dec. 19): Follow-up 2-

Regarding the issue with the lobby database server which occurred during maintenance on Tuesday, December 16, 2025 and caused some Cross-world Linkshells / PvP teams / Fellowships on the NA data centres to be automatically disbanded, below are the measures which were implemented during the all Worlds maintenance on Tuesday, February 5, 2026 where HotFixes for Patch 7.41 were applied.

■ Addressing CWLS

▼ Regarding the situation where masters were automatically transferred
It was discovered that among certain CWLS that were not automatically disbanded during the maintenance on December 16, 2025, some were mistakenly recognised as having no master, resulting in them being automatically transferred.

Regarding this matter, except in cases where the relevant character has withdrawn from the relevant CWLS, we have restored the master to the character who held it as of the maintenance on December 16, 2025. For characters who became a master due to the effects of this issue, we have changed their rank to the rank (Leader or Member) as of the maintenance on December 16, 2025.

Among the affected CWLS, there were some changes such as the master being manually transferred to another character after they were automatically transferred due to the issue. However, we have uniformly reverted them to their previous state as it was difficult from the logs to determine whether the original master’s intent was involved.

Please perform master transfers and other actions as necessary. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience.

▼ Regarding the restoration performed on Thursday, Dec. 25, 2025 for CWLS that had been disbanded
During the emergency maintenance carried out on Thursday, Dec. 25, 2025, we performed restoration for CWLS that had been disbanded. However, it was discovered that characters who had previously withdrawn and should not have been restored were also restored during this procedure. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused by this.

Accordingly, we have carried out measures to once again remove those characters who had previously withdrawn.

■ Addressing PvP teams
Upon detailed investigation, in addition to teams being forcibly disbanded, we discovered cases where team members were forcibly removed as well as cases where leadership was automatically transferred.

We have implemented restoration measures to revert these back to the state they were in when the issue occurred. However, if team leaders or members have already joined other PvP teams, restoration through the system is not possible. We apologise for the inconvenience and kindly ask that you reform your team as necessary.

With these measures, all data restoration work related to the impact of this issue has been completed.
Once again, we apologise for the extended period of inconvenience.

Known Issues Following the Release of Patch 7.45 (Mar. 4)-

We have identified the issue listed below.
The issue is being investigated and addressed, and additional information will follow as the situation develops.

■For NPC Khaldeen in Radz-at-Han, the “Elevated Ester Augmentation” option is not displayed if “Another Aloalo Island (Savage)” has not been unlocked.

*The Elevated Ester which was previously obtainable by completing “Another Aloalo Island (Savage)”, can now also be obtained by completing “The Merchant's Tale (Advanced)” and “Another Merchant's Tale” released in Patch 7.45.
We identified that the requirement for NPC Khaldeen to display the relevant option which was set to the unlocking of “Another Aloalo Island (Savage)” was not changed as necessary. We apologise for this oversight.

We are currently working to implement and verify a fix and are preparing to address the issue via hotfix as soon as possible. We kindly ask for your patience until this issue has been resolved.

Fan Festival 2026 Bonus Item Delivery-

We are expecting some delays in the delivery of in-game items for bonus item codes and optional item purchases after FINAL FANTASY XIV Fan Festival 2026 items are made available for purchase at the Online Store.
Please take the following into consideration before purchasing any optional items.

【Make enough free space to receive your Mog Letters】
Please make sure you have enough free space to receive items before making a purchase by taking items from any letters you have received in the "Purchases & Rewards" tab and deleting the letters afterwards.
*Please note that if you have purchased multiple items, they will be sent to you in separate letters. Please make sure that you have freed up enough space.

You can only receive a total of 20 Mog Letters related to bonus items, optional items, or gift items. If you do not have enough free space, the system will attempt to redeliver the items at another time. The time taken between each attempt to redeliver optional items may be extended in order to reduce the server load this process has on the general delivery system.

◆Delivery timing of optional items
The delivery time of optional items varies depending on the type of purchase.

・Items purchased for single characters
　　→ Items will be delivered immediately after purchase
　・Account-wide item purchases
　　→ Log in with a character after purchase to have the item delivered to that character

With account-wide item purchases, you must log in with the character after making the purchase in order to receive the item. Please be sure to log out and then log back in again if the purchase was made whilst logged in to FINAL FANTASY XIV.
Please note that if you purchased both types of optional items, the items may be delivered at different times due to the nature of the delivery system.

【Checking the status of the optional item purchases】
You can check the status on the Online Store via "Your Account" → "Purchase History".

Please note item deliveries may be delayed during peak times. If you have still not received your items despite confirming all of the above points, please be advised that it can take up to 24 hours before items are delivered. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.

Known Issue with Inconceivably Further Hildibrand Adventures - Meteorites and Meteor-wrongs (Apr. 28)-

We have identified an issue with the Inconceivably Further Hildibrand Adventures - Meteorites and Meteor-wrongs quest introduced in Patch 7.45. When playing a cutscene, the screen may remain black, preventing further progression.

There is currently no workaround, and should this issue occur the only option is to close the game. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this may cause and kindly ask that you refrain from progressing with the affected quest until a fix has been implemented.

We have already identified the cause and are working on implementing a fix as soon as possible. We kindly ask for your patience until this issue has been resolved.

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused.

News Update!
Known Issues Following the Release of Patch 7.5 (Apr. 28)-

We have identified the issues listed below.
These issues are being investigated and addressed, and additional information will follow as the situation develops.

[Known Issues]
■For male Roegadyn and male Hrothgar, dye 2 is no longer being applied to the hem of the "Air Cell Halfslops".

■You can use the "Senor Otter pack", a fashion accessory that is scheduled to be released as a content reward in the future.

  • Upon investigating this issue, we confirmed that during data configuration, the internal ID for the "Senor Otter pack" was mistakenly set to the same internal ID as the "Black Embroidered Parasol". As a result, if you have already obtained "Black Embroidered Parasol", you will also be able to use "Senor Otter pack".

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. However, we plan to correct the internal ID in an upcoming HOTFIX, so the feature will no longer be available at that time.

■In the NPC exchange shop, some item name texts are displayed in Japanese within the confirmation screen upon exchanging.

-NPC Names
・Ardolain - Foundation
・Amalj'aa vendor - Southern Thanalan
・Sylphic vendor - East Shroud
・Kobold vendor - Outer La Noscea
・Sahagin vendor - Western La Noscea
・Luna Vanu - Sea of Clouds
・Vath stickpeddler - Dravanian Forelands
・Shikitahe - The Ruby Sea
・Madhura - The Fringes
・Gyosho - The Azim Steppe
・Produce producer - Island Sanctuary
・Expedition antiquarian - Occult Crescent: South Horn

*The text should be appearing as follows:

Correct）
Exchange (amount) (item name 1) for the following item?

(item name 2) x (amount)

Incorrect）
以下のアイテムを
(item name 1)x(amount)と交換します。

(item name 2)x(amount)

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Known Issues Following the Release of Patch 7.5 (Apr. 29)-

We have identified the issues listed below, which are currently being investigated and addressed. Additional information will follow as the situation develops.

[Known Issues]
■ In the housing section, furnishings may not display properly.
*We have received several inquiries regarding issues such as items no longer appearing on the screen even though the number of items on screen does not exceed 400, and the system failing to correctly hide items when the number exceeds 400. Although we have been investigating these issues using various methods, including copying the house data provided by customers into our development environment for verification, we have not yet been able to reproduce the issue in our development environment. For that reason, we have not been able to determine the specifics of the phenomenon or identify its cause. We are currently prioritising this issue and are working to resolve it, so we ask for your patience until the issue is addressed.

■ In the Alliance Raid Dungeon Windurst: The Third Walk, if a player character who has been knocked out selects Starting Point at a specific moment after defeating the boss in the Promathia battle, the screen remains black.
*If encountering this issue, we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience but kindly try restarting the client.

■ Some textures in the first field of the high-difficulty content Futures Rewritten (Ultimate) are not displaying properly. (PlayStation®5 only)

■ When female characters other than Lalafell equip certain body gear together with the leg gear Dirndl Long Skirt, the graphics may not display correctly depending on the motion or pose.

■ With the minions Caprino and Wind-up Red XIII, black dots may appear on the model if Texture Resolution is set to Standard, or when playing on the PlayStation®4 / Xbox Series S versions. (Windows® / Mac / Steam / PlayStation®4 / Xbox Series S only)

■ During crafting, when changing class/jobs at the same time as transitioning from the crafting idle state to the normal state (i.e., from being seated with your crafting tool drawn to standing), you may become immobilised.
*If planning to change class/job, please avoid doing so at the exact moment of transitioning from the crafting idle state to the normal state.

■ Selecting the Search Recipes Using This Material from the subcommand menu of any pigment, then opening the Crafting Log from that screen will open a recipe that uses Purple Pigment regardless of which pigment you started from.
*When opening the Crafting Log from the main menu, all the pigment recipes listed will display correctly, so please use this method as a workaround.

■ In the Quest Progression Settings section of the Character Configuration, the Quest NPC determination incorrectly includes housing gardens, hired NPCs, and mannequins.

■ When the gauge for certain jobs reaches a specific level, the controller does not vibrate upon using a DualSense wireless controller. (Windows® / Steam only)

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience these issues may be causing.

We have identified the issues listed below, which are being investigated and addressed. Additional information will follow as the situation develops.

[Known Issues]

  • The Quest Progression Settings under Character Configuration are incorrectly triggered around various NPCs and objects.

News Update!
Issue with Furnishings Not Displaying Properly in Housing (May 12)-

We would like to provide an update regarding the previously announced issue where furnishings may not be displayed properly in housing.

This issue can be broadly divided into the two cases below, and we would like to explain each in turn.

■ Case 1: When the number of furnishings on screen exceeds 400, but the checks that determine what should be hidden are not performed correctly.
Our investigation to date has confirmed issues with the following processes:

・In certain cases, when furnishings placed on different floors enter the camera view, the process that determines the positions of all furnishings on screen may fail.
・When switching furnishings between visible/hidden states, unintended fade processing is occurring.
・For furnishings with light sources, there are cases where the light reaches the camera view but the furnishing itself is off-screen, and the checks are not performed correctly—resulting in the light-source furnishing being hidden.

When these three issues overlap, we have confirmed that furnishings may become hidden at unintended times depending on furnishing placement, camera angle, and direction in which the camera is moved. For this case, we have already identified the cause and are currently working on a fix.

■ Case 2: When furnishings become hidden even though the number of furnishings on screen does not exceed 400.
Regarding this case, we have received numerous reports stating that it occurs even though fewer than 400 furnishings have been placed to begin with.

In addition to verification across a variety of environments (PC specifications and platforms), we have also investigated through a wide range of methods such as copying the housing data of affected players into our development environment. However, we have not been able to reproduce the issue even once in the development environment so far, and identifying the cause has proven difficult.

Based on our analysis of the program, it is unlikely that the display limit processing would trigger when fewer than 400 furnishings are present. As such, we have formed the hypothesis that, under certain conditions, information for furnishings that were previously rendered on screen may continue to remain in the client’s memory, and that this may be added to the current on-screen count. However, currently we do not have enough information to confirm this, and we have not yet been able to establish a clear direction for a fix.

To help us solve the issue, if you encounter the symptoms described in this case, we would greatly appreciate it if you could submit a detailed report in the official forum thread below, using the provided template. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your cooperation.
