Hey everyone,

I thought I’d let you know that we have just put online the FFXIV PlayStation 4 product pages (you will find a link at the bottom of the post), and some of the info on there might be of interest to you. If you can’t see the new pages, please do a hard-refresh (most browsers do so through CTRL+F5). Since I know that probably nobody here will have the patience to click the info together, I thought I might as well post a FAQ!

First of all: The trailer. Fully recorded from a PS4.

Fun Facts: You wouldn’t believe how much time we have spent just waving and cheering. These little over 2 minutes of trailer material took way over 6 hours to film and resulted in over 800GB of 1080p material. I am also in that video, visible at around 0:32. The first one to guess who I am will have the honor of being right! :P
