Following the launch of the Final Fantasy XIV 10th Anniversary celebration website recently and the Fanfest that saw Dawntrail announced, Square Enix launched a new website for the upcoming Final Fantasy XIV 6.50 Growing Light update. This update brings a new alliance raid dungeon, new story quests, a new trail, and support for future patches including 6.55 that brings in new Hilidbrand quests. Today at TGS 2023, Square Enix released the first trailer for the update. Check out the new trailer below:

I’m interested to see what Square Enix does to celebrate A Realm Reborn’s launch and whether it pays some tribute to 1.0 in the current version of Final Fantasy XIV with it also coming to Xbox Series X|S next year. I’m looking forward to the beta of that version. Hopefully we see visual improvements on PS5 as well since the current native release isn’t much better than the PS4 version.
