The producer and director of Final Fantasy 14, Naoki Yoshida, astounded fans by disclosing that a mobile version of this widely-loved MMORPG is under construction. A sneak peek was given through a trailer, offering a glimpse at what’s to come. Dubbed Final Fantasy 14 Mobile, the game will encompass all content from A Realm Reborn and boast extra features such as the Manderville Gold Saucer and Player vs Player (PVP) combat.

Yoshida began unveiling “Final Fantasy 14 Mobile” by reflecting on the game’s remarkable progress since its 2013 rebrand as “A Realm Reborn.” He mentioned that the development of “Final Fantasy 14 Mobile” is being handled by Lightspeed Studios, a company that recently established a Japanese branch with Hideaki Itsuno at the helm. Lightspeed Studios, a Tencent subsidiary, is recognized for creating games like “PUBG Mobile” and the forthcoming “Last Sentinel.” However, Square Enix confirmed that “Final Fantasy 14 Mobile” is an authorized project, and they will oversee Lightspeed Studios during and following its development.

Despite not announcing a specific release date for “Final Fantasy 14 Mobile”, Square Enix has revealed that some enthusiasts will get an opportunity to try out the game before it officially launches. On the “Final Fantasy 14 Mobile” website, potential players in China can register for several test plays before the worldwide debut. Pre-registrations for the mobile version are now open on the game’s official site. In terms of what gamers might experience when “Final Fantasy 14 Mobile” is unveiled, Yoshida mentioned that combat classes and Jobs from “A Realm Reborn”, as well as crafters and gatherers, would be playable. A sneak peek at the development process of “Final Fantasy 14 Mobile” was shared by Yoshida, featuring a trailer set to a medley by “Final Fantasy 14” composer Masayoshi Soken. Scenes from cities like Gridania, Limsa Lominsa, and Ul’dah were showcased, along with Jobs such as the Paladin, White Mage, and Summoner.
