FINAL FANTASY XIV Online News

Final Fantasy 14's Island Sanctuary update will arrive on August 23rd

As a non-player, the trailer for Final Fantasy 14's Patch 6.2, Buried Memory, is indistinguishable from every other patch trailer. There's enormous boss monsters, several types of void, an incongruous cat creature, Death maybe... Where it differs is that there are also a few glimpses of the Island Sanctuary, FFXIV's new solo farming content.

Watch it below ahead of the newly announced release date: August 23rd.

Final Fantasy 14's island sanctuary inches closer with new screenshots

Final Fantasy 14's patch 6.2 will arrive in late August, and will bring with it the new Island Sanctuary. These are private homes where players can farm, build, and invite pals around to hang. Square Enix have shared a few new screenshots today showing the tropical paradise you'll be constructing your homestead upon.

As the realm swelters in the summer heat, the decorations lining city streets and fireworks blooming in the night sky make for much more pleasant reminders of the season. Now is the time to escape to Costa del Sol, where tranquil waters and the Moonfire Faire await!
