This is probably not a surprise given what happened before, but Final Fantasy XIV fans will not be gathering in Europe for a convention. The European fan festival has officially been cancelled as of today due to the global pandemic, which follows on the heels of both the North American and Japanese fan festivals being cancelled for November and December respectively. Producer and director Naoki Yoshida announced this at the tail end of the most recent live letter from the producer.
As this means all three of the planned festivals have now been cancelled, there are plans for some form of digital event, with players asked to please stand by for further information. It’s unclear when such an event would take place or how long the planning for such has been ongoing, considering that the prior cancellations happened quite some time ago. Keep your eyes peeled for more information about… well, more information, since fan festivals usually serve to announce the next expansion.Source: Official Site
