Final Fantasy XIV Stormblood launches 4.1 The Legend Returns in October

Did you think that the final boss of Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood was difficult? You’ll probably be singing a different tune when you face off against the Minstrel’s Ballad version of the boss with patch 4.1, which is coming out October 10th. But perhaps you’ll never even go down that route, focusing instead on new custom deliveries for crafting starring M’naago of the Ala Mhigan Resistance. The latest update to the official patch site shows off these additions and more.

Players can also gawp at the new screenshots for the Rival Wings PvP battles, which looks to bring a slice of MOBA action into the game’s PvP scene. There’s also a preview of the continued Inspector Hildibrand story and the beast tribe quests focused around the Kojin, and there’s still more to come before the patch goes live in October. The latest producer’s letter also covered things like the coming adventurer squadron updates and miscellaneous changes, like the ability to remove materia from items. So isn’t that exciting? There’s even a trailer!
