From the moment that Final Fantasy XIV producer and director Naoki Yoshida revealed that he had finally made peace with Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida, we have all known we would be getting a crossover event. And the first video trailer made it clear we were getting FFXVI‘s goodest boy, Torgal, in both mount and minion form. But the event preview page makes it clear that yes, while riding on Torgal, you can pet the dog. That’s it. Best crossover event ever by a county mile. You can pet the dog.
Now, if you still need a little more ahead of the quest’s release next week, you can feast your eyes upon the previews of how Clive’s outfit will take dyes or the NPC who starts the quest. But the most important question of whether or not you can put the dog is already answered. Heck, the preview even calls him the goodest boi. The community team knows what’s up.
