Early access for Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers begins on June 28th at 5:00 a.m. EDT, but anyone who’s done the early access dance before knows that there’s maintenance first. Sure enough, maintenance will start at 5:00 a.m. EDT on June 27th, so if you’ve got any last-minute things to take care of before the expansion, you’d best get them done before the 27th. Yes, it’s a full day of maintenance, which is also now familiar at this point.
So what can you do to manage yourself during this time period? Will you be forced to just deal with something else in the real world like an animal? Nah, you can just listen to the latest arrangement album for the game, Journeys. It contains both videos and the listed tracks in MP3 form, as well as special Orchestrion rolls for whomever purchases the album, so if you love the game’s music you’re likely to enjoy this as well.Source: Maintenance notice, Developer Blog
