The monthly update cadence of Final Fantasy XI is continuing into April, but this time around the game is actually moving backwards a little bit. Just a little bit, though; it’s bringing back one of the more popular Ambuscade foes for players to face once more, complete with new rewards available. If you couldn’t get enough of fighting the Gigas, you’ll have another opportunity.
Players can also see another old foe with a long history of being fought as another Ark Angel joins the list of Trust companions, this time the Ark Angel MR. There’s also new log messages in the chat window for crafting gains to facilitate the Escutcheon line, new Records of Eminence objectives, and a few other quality of life features. Just because some of the monthly update content is glancing backwards doesn’t mean the game as a whole isn’t moving forward just the same.
