"Final Fantasy XIV" new expansion pack — "Stormblood" — is about to be released soon. With only a month away, producer and game director Naoki Yoshida has given fans a preview of what they can expect from the upcoming expansion.
Fans of the "Final Fantasy XIV" rejoiced as Yoshida gave a sneak peek at "Stormblood." The preview was a set of photos that he uploaded on Square Enix's official forums. In the screenshots, the game director gave everybody an idea of job actions and environment in the upcoming expansion pack.
"It's currently midnight during Golden Week, and I took some screenshots while testing, so I'll just leave them here. Just note... this thread may get closed if I get scolded by Project Manager M!" Yoshida declared before he shared the photos.
The first photo was of Kugane. In the screenshot, the character is seen standing during night time while doing various checks on the samurai.
The next photo is about a new black mage action, in which a mage is seen clothed in a purple aura. The game director said that he took the photo using the new group pose feature.
After sharing the photo, Yoshida apologized for the low quality of his uploads. He explained that the forum has an image size restriction, and that he could only do as much. After that, the game director said his goodbye.
However, a little while later, Yoshida came back with another set of uploads. He came back with three more screenshots that feature more characters.
The first screenshot is about a red mage. The character is seen doing a group pose. Yoshida teased about where the character is standing at, but did not give it away. The second one is a dragoon character standing near the Ruby Sea at sunrise. The last one is a bard doing an action pose in the Azim Steppe with a sunset on the background.
The photos were uploaded on the official website, and an English version of the post can be found here.
"Final Fantasy XIV" is now available for PC, PlayStation 3 and 4. "Stormblood" is set to be released on June 20.
