Final Fantasy XIV previews this year’s Starlight Celebration

Have you ever noticed that every single holiday celebration in Final Fantasy XIV goes wrong? There’s never a year when player characters are not tasked with fixing something messy. This year’s Starlight Celebration is coming, and wouldn’t you know it, the holiday celebration is going wrong again and it’s up to players to ensure that everyone enjoys the magic of wearing fake beards and reindeer antlers on their heads.

Is that not the real meaning of the Starlight Celebration? Because it should be.

Aside from the fake beard and antlers, players can also pick up hooves, gloves, and a hat for cosmetic rewards, along with a Starlight tree and wall decorations for the house. The event starts up on December 18th and runs until December 31st, so players should have plenty of time to save Starlight yet again. One wonders if Eorzea’s residents would ever have another holiday without players.
