Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is one of the most remarkable comeback stories in gaming history — and one of the greatest MMORPGs ever made. Originally launched in 2010 to catastrophic failure, the game was entirely rebuilt by director Naoki Yoshida and relaunched in 2013. The result was extraordinary: a game with an epic narrative rivaling single-player JRPGs, a warm and welcoming community, and content spanning from accessible casual play to some of the most demanding raid encounters in the genre. Expansions Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringers, and Endwalker form a story arc that moved players to tears across the globe, with Shadowbringers frequently cited as one of the greatest JRPG stories ever told. The recently released Dawntrail begins a new story chapter with equal ambition. FFXIV's free trial now includes two full expansions — there has never been a better time to enter Eorzea.
