    Do I need to download the new version of FFXI to play the Aniversery 2 free weeks?

    I saw a video made by Mr Happy that FFXI was having free weeks for the 17th anniversary and there is a new installer for the game. The last time I played FFXI was when they had a free week previously. I have the version of the game that has all the expansions installed separately.

    Will my old install of FFXI work or will I need to download the one on the site and install it.

    Want to know before I spend like 6 hours updating the game.

    Greetings Zumi!

    For the Return Home to Vana'diel campaign please refer to the following page for details on how you can participate and play FFXI for free.

    Your previous installation should work; however, if you haven't updated your client in a while and if you experience long update (if over one or two hours), I suggest try downloading the new installer and reinstall the game with updated files. While the download speed of the new client installer depends on your connection, I believe It will save you hours of updating!

    You can find the new installer here:
