Dev Blog: Introducing Pre-orders for Dawntrail

by Xenor

Greetings, this is Okieeomi from the Community team.

Have you all pre-ordered our upcoming expansion, FINAL FANTASY XIV: Dawntrail?

You may have seen some players already in-game sporting the pre-order bonuses such as the Wind-up Zidane minion or Azeyma’s Earrings. A huge shout out to those who have already pre-ordered!

We’ve already seen some questions like, “Which version should I get?” so today we’ll go over what each version has to offer!

â–  Product Line-up

Our line-up for Dawntrail can be broken down into four distinct packages.

If you’re the ultimate collector, then you’ll want to pick up Dawntrail and ALL of the in-game bonus items and physical goods associated!

Windows® and Mac version users will want to pick up the Collector’s Edition which will include the game, the goods, and the in-game items.

PlayStation®5|PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam version users would pick up the Collector’s Box from the Square Enix Store, and then purchase Digital Collector’s Edition from your respective platform that you play on.

But let’s say you’re not after everything, and you just want Dawntrail and the in-game bonus items~

Then you can happily pick up the Digital Collector’s Edition and be on your way.

Finally, if you simply want to play Dawntrail and don’t want the bonus items, we’ve got you!

The Standard Edition is the one for you!

â–  Physical Bonus Goods

These will be included in the following products:

  • Collector’s Edition

These earrings will be useful for players who still need to level up their jobs to 90 before Dawntrail as they provide the user with attributes that vary according to your class/job and current level when equipped. Plus, when worn, the user’s EXP earned when defeating enemies is increased by 30%!

* Equippable only by Disciples of War or Magic classes and jobs.

The Wind-up Zidane and Azeyma’s Earrings can be redeemed immediately upon purchase.
