The next major reveal of information about Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker isn’t going to happen until May, but producer and director Naoki Yoshida has been on the interview circuit and has been talking more about features players learned from the expansion reveal. For example, in an interview with Fanbyte Media, Yoshida mentioned that the Island Sanctuary came out of a repeated request from players to have minions running around while gardening and a desire to see if there was a way to make that into an actual new sort of content to enjoy.
Yoshida also talked about the length of the main scenario planned for Endwalker, which he said should easily sit at more than 50 hours worth of content. He also noted that the end of the main “saga” that has occupied the game’s story since the launch of 2.0 may see a change to more self-contained and smaller stories, but the team’s current focus is entirely on finishing this story in a satisfying and appropriately epic fashion.
