    New Jobs, Playable Race, and More Added to the MMORPG<\/h2>\n

    Final Fantasy XIV (FF14)<\/i> is gearing up for its next major expansion, Dawntrail<\/i>, which is set to release on Tuesday, July 2, 2024<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    Early access will begin on Friday, June 28<\/b>. According to FF14 director Naoki \u2018Yoshi-P\u2019 Yoshida, the release was delayed by a week to avoid clashing with the Elden Ring DLC Shadow of the Erdtree<\/i>.<\/p>\n

    Yoshida announced this during the FF14 Fan Fest 2023 in Las Vegas<\/b>, where the Dawntrail<\/i> expansion was first revealed.<\/p>\n

    Players have since been eagerly awaiting more details about the expansion’s setting, story, new jobs, and graphics updates.<\/p>\n

    Dawntrail Release Date and Pre-Order Issues<\/h2>\n

    The FF14 Dawntrail<\/i> release date is Tuesday, July 2, 2024. Early access starts on June 28. Yoshida initially planned for an earlier release but shifted the date to avoid launching alongside the Elden Ring DLC.<\/p>\n

    Pre-orders for Dawntrail<\/i> have gone live. However, players have encountered certain issues, such as failed payments and registration code errors<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    At the Tokyo Fan Fest 2024, Yoshida confirmed that the team has an internal release date but will only announce it once they are confident of meeting it, hinting at a summer release.<\/p>\n

    Dawntrail Trailers Tease New Adventures<\/h2>\n

    The first Dawntrail<\/i> trailer premiered on July 28, 2023<\/b>, during the Las Vegas Fan Fest. The upbeat, whimsical teaser suggests a holiday-themed expansion.<\/p>\n

    The Warrior of Light is seen with Erenville on a sailboat heading to the New World. The trailer also features various Scions of the Seventh Dawn enjoying a break, highlighting a new adventure atmosphere.<\/p>\n

    Level Cap Increase and New Jobs<\/h2>\n

    The FF14 Dawntrail<\/i> expansion will raise the level cap to 100<\/b>, adding ten levels from the previous cap of 90.<\/p>\n

    This increase affects all combat, crafting, and gathering classes, introducing new skills for each job.<\/p>\n

    Two new playable jobs<\/b> are featured in Dawntrail<\/i>. The first is the Viper, a dual-wielding melee DPS class revealed at the London Fan Fest 2023.<\/p>\n

    The second is the Pictomancer,<\/b> a ranged magical DPS unveiled at the Tokyo Fan Fest in January 2024.<\/p>\n

    During the job announcement, Yoshida teased fans by wearing a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles<\/i> shirt, hinting at the Viper’s theme<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    The Pictomancer, originating from Final Fantasy 6<\/i>, uses a magical brush to paint enemies and allies<\/b>, offering both offensive and supportive capabilities.<\/p>\n

    Female Hrothgar Playable Race<\/h2>\n

    Female Hrothgar will be introduced in Dawntrail<\/i>, following their male counterparts’ debut in the Shadowbringers<\/i> expansion.<\/p>\n

    Yoshida said this might be the final new race<\/b> added to the game. However, with Dawntrail<\/i> starting a new story arc, he left the possibility open for future additions.<\/p>\n

    Dawntrail’s Story and Setting<\/h2>\n

    The Dawntrail<\/i> story focuses on a journey of discovery in the New World of Tural<\/b>, located west of Eorzea.<\/p>\n

    The Scions of the Seventh Dawn will travel to Tural’s major hub city, Tuliyollal, and engage in a contest to determine the successor to its ruler, Gulool Ja Ja.<\/p>\n

    The events will divide the Scions into opposing factions, promising intriguing alliances and rivalries.<\/p>\n

    Exploring Tural: Diverse Regions and Inhabitants<\/h2>\n

    Tural is a diverse region featuring the city of Tuliyollal and the mountainous Urqopacha<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    The latter is home to the Pelupelu, diminutive people known for their entrepreneurship and production of tea, coffee, and mezcal.<\/p>\n

    Adventurers can also explore the dense forest of Yak T\u2019el, inhabited by Mamool Ja and Hrothgar.<\/p>\n

    New Gameplay and Graphics Enhancements<\/h2>\n

    Dawntrail<\/i> will include new dungeons, trials, variant dungeons, an alliance raid, and an eight-player raid<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    PvP updates for Crystalline Conflict, Frontline, and Rival Wings are also planned. Yoshida mentioned new deep dungeon plans and a Gold Saucer update.<\/p>\n

    The expansion will include a graphical update, enhancing the game’s visuals without drastically changing character appearances<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    New fashion options, such as dual dye slots and separate glasses slots, will also be introduced.<\/p>\n

    Get Ready for FF14 Dawntrail!<\/h2>\n
