The conclusion of Final Fantasy XIV’s expansion story starts today with the launch of patch 4.5, A Requiem for Heroes. Players can log in right now to start exploring the details of the new MSQ and be treated to the various revelations awaiting therein, as well as the conclusion to the Return to Ivalice quest line and a variety of new furnishings and new glamour items.
The patch also brings with it the inclusion of Mahjong, which a recent development entry explains in detail for those unfamiliar with the very concept of Japanese Mahjong. The game mode was actually added due to director and producer Naoki Yoshida’s fondness for the game, with the core of the mode developed by another studio and ported to FFXIV. Check out the patch trailer just below, read through the patch notes if you haven’t already, and get ready for the end of the expansion (or the first part, at least).
