Learn about Final Fantasy XIV’s Soul Surrender (Patch 3.4)

September 19, 2016 by Nick Monroe

The newest update coming September 27th packs one heck of a punch.

The current Final Fantasy XIV had an interesting road to launch. The original FFXIV came out in September 2010, and the reviews were so negative that the game was rebuilt into Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, released again for PS3 and PC by the end of August 2013. This time everything seemed to gel right: the engine, story, gameplay, and overall structure of presentation was more than enough to keep gamers interested in playing. With the arrival of Patch 3.4 “Soul Surrender,” Square Enix is looking to deliver on a big step forward for the game when this new update launches on September 27th. This walk-through video uploaded to the official YouTube channel gives you a pretty extensive tour of the new content. Not just covering the big new areas, but it also touches on the small details such as the cosmetic items you can acquire for your character.

The center storyline is focused on a new threat approaching. But Soul Surrender has plenty of other attractions to keep you entertained. Apartment buildings have been added to wards and subdivisions. To obtain one, you need to be level 50 and have one class, in addition to having the rank of second lieuteant. A building can have up to 90 tenants, with rooms costing 500,000 gil each. You’re allowed to have both estates and apartments (but you can’t share apartments). If you want to add some life to your living space, you can make an aquarium in any of your properties with the fish you catch. Setting mood music is possible too, with the new Orchestrion interface feature. Some new dungeons await you in the expansion. The mountains of Xelphatol are inhabited by the Ixal, who seek to summon a being named Garuda who they want to strike down their enemies. One of the second dungeons is The Great Gubal Library. This hard mode dungeon isn’t just a place of knowledge, but also magical guardians who are bound to protecting the secrets within these halls. If the new main scenario doesn’t intrigue you, this new patch has further adventures of the Hildibrand, plus a side quest involving the Saint Endalim’s Scholasticate. Adventurer Squadrons, Duels, New Hairstyles? The player base of Final Fantasy XIV has a lot to keep them busy.

Final Fantasy XIV is available on PC (Mac), PS4 and PS3. If you want to learn more about the game before jumping in, head on over to their website, Twitter, and Facebook.
