Final Fantasy XIV prepares for a release on Xbox with an open beta

Many years of hard work after a full reboot of the game following a disastrous launch have taken Final Fantasy XIV to the top of the charts. The game has been the most played MMORPG for a while now and it has left World of Warcraft far behind. After enhancing its content with the launch of expansions full of novelties and additions, like Shadowbringers and Endwalker, the game has managed to consolidate a very large community of fans who enjoy exploring and adventuring in the world of Hydaelyn. Final Fantasy XIV offers the players an exciting gameplay experience supported by a welcoming community that keeps growing steadily as time passes.
