For Final Fantasy XI, a level cap increase to 99, new job abilities, the merging of servers, three mini expansions and additional weapon customization options. For Final Fantasy XIV, an announced beta start date of March 11 and instant access for those in attendance at VanaFest.
Final Fantasy XIV fans can now properly benchmark their PCs and check out some of what's coming to their game this summer.

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.
Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.
What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?
I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.
Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched
it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape
Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.
This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.
You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.
It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.
I should have continued playing FFXI :/, seems like if I did I would have been able to increase my chances of playing FFXIV.
BOTH... all these rumors saying FFxi was gonna die... rofl. SE wants you to pay for both. Why kill a cash cow?
Raise lvl limit to 99 (75 took long enough)
Merge servers (just needed)
More Minispansions (finally battle oriented, demanded)
Many other things
Yeah... FFxi is dieing/sarcasm
Maybe I'll get into the game again. My lvl 75 samurai,ninja and Redmage is really gonna need a tune up lol.
i have not played FFXI for a few years, but this is absolutely huge news and i might just rejoin. i just hope my char is still stored in some capacity, it took long enough to reach lv75
i just quit month ago winter time is killing my funds my las gas bill was 198.99 my lot rent 365.00 plus 19.99 for there water and sewage i only on disablity yes it dieing to cut that many servers they slowing killing it off when 14 is released you see ps2 version of 11 get canceled since microsoft has wait for 14 to be released
