Patch 7.4, called ‘Into the Mist,’ acts as a bridge between the ‘Dawntrail’ expansion and the next big update for Final Fantasy 14. The main story for this patch consists of nine quests, beginning with ‘With the Winds.’ You can start it by talking to Alphinaud in Solution Nine after finishing all previous main story quests. As you play through the patch’s story, you’ll unlock the new Mistwake dungeon and the Hell on Rails trial. Patch 7.4 will also conclude the popular Arcadion raid series, with its final story unfolding over six quests started by accepting ‘Feral Fandom’ from Yaana in Solution Nine. Throughout early 2026, smaller updates will add even more content, including new Hildibrand quests and the variant dungeon, The Merchant’s Tale.
