The next patch for Final Fantasy 14 (6.5) will be released early October this year and will be called Growing Light.
The patch will come in two story parts that will set up the narrative ahead of the release of the next full expansion, Dawntrail, in summer 2024 — as announced yesterday at the Fan Fest in Las Vegas.
Along with various quests and additions, the Duty Support system will now allow players to experience all duties from A Realm Reborn to the end of Endwalker completely solo.
Further, the free trial will be expanded to include Stormblood with patch 6.5, meaning anyone looking to get into the MMORPG can play a huge chunk of the game for free — and do so as a solo player if they prefer.
The first part of patch 6.5 will arrive in early October, while patch 6.55 will follow in mid-January 2024 to fully connect the story to Dawntrail.
