Final Fantasy 14’s full release on Xbox is coming this month
And a Starter Edition will be available through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Perks
Microsoft has announced Final Fantasy 14 will be released on Xbox Series X/S on March 21.
During an Xbox Partner Preview event on Wednesday, it also said that a Starter Edition of the game will be available to claim through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Perks between March 21 and April 19.
An open beta for the game kicked off in late February. The beta is solely designed for newcomers who are playing the game for the first time, so anyone with an existing Final Fantasy 14 account on another platform will have to wait until the game has fully launched on Xbox.
It was officially announced back in June 2023 that Final Fantasy 14 was coming to Series X/S, when Xbox boss Phil Spencer made a surprise appearance at the Final Fantasy 14 Fan Festival in Las Vegas.
The Series X version of the game supports 4K graphics, while both the Series X and Series S versions benefit from fast loading times.
The Expanded Free Trial, which is available on PC and PlayStation consoles, will also be applicable on Xbox too.
