FF14 director Yoshida adds fuel to my 8.0 theories as he promises that the MMO is "ready to change" in 2026
As Heavensturn arrives and the calendar flips to 2026, Final Fantasy 14 is gearing up for its next expansion. There's been no end of speculation and theorizing about what the FF14 8.0 update might look like, with the recent (and rather fantastic) patch 7.4 offering some very tantalizing hints but little in the way of concrete answers. Will we even see it before the end of the year? Based on game director Naoki Yoshida's New Year's Greetings, it sounds like there's more of a chance of that than we might have thought.
