Final Fantasy 14: A Realm Reborn players that begin their quest on the PS3 will be able to play the PS4 version's beta for free, Sony Computer Entertainment Japan announced today. The beta for the PS4 version of A Realm Reborn will launch alongside the console in Japan on February 22.
Update: A Square Enix Europe press release confirms players will be able to carry over character data when transitioning from PS3 to PS4. The date noted in the press release is also February 22, indicating the PS4 beta will likely begin globally on that day.
So if you own PS3 version you're in. I wouldn't worry about the details till a month away from it. -

Is there even going to be a PS4 beta? The game is the same, just the end system processing is different.

The PS4 system itself is bitter-sweet like FFXIV:ARR, makes no sense to have a BETA.
The game's already launched.
The system already launched as I viewed a show on it. New games are released with updates and online multi-player is accessible through Playstation Pluz Network Member only access can play online games.
The system is more powerful so we know its going to run faster.
The only issue I have is paying for subscription + online multiplayer(MMORPGs) access. What do you all think of this? -

11-19-2013, 08:52 PMFelisPS4 get the same graphic quality like the PC with the current high setting. DX11 is only for PC. And not every PC player would need to download the game new, only the one who want the DX11 client.Quote:

The PS4 client is NOT going to simply be the PS3 client reskinned. It's going to be closer to the PC client. Since it's a brand new build of the game on a brand new system it will require a 2-4 weeks of testing to work out wrinkles. This isn't beta testing the game persay just beta testing the new client. Wouldn't want to launch the PS4 version and find out there's a massive graphical glitch or something. Plus they'll probably hand out some beta keys to try and drum up more subs. :) I remember the FFXI Xbox launch. Major sub increase then.

11-19-2013, 09:21 PMDukeGrNo, DX11 on pc will be on par with PS4 since the PS4 version is a direct port of the DX11 client, hence they will get released around the same time.Quote:

GW: When can we expect the DirectX 11 version release?
Yoshida:We were finally able to announce the PS4 versions beta test timing, so from there the next phase would be about 6 month later.
Yoshida: We’ll use parts of the DirectX 11 features, but unlike the PC version it’s not fully supported.

I don't understand the need for beta. Dcuo was available for ps4 at launch, so ffxiv should do the same thing. No need to delay for months. They have enough time to test its compatibility before feb 22 to just release the full game.

The PS4 Interface will be different than the PC and PS3 Interfaces, so yes there will need to be a Beta for it. Probably even a Beta for the VITA Remote Play.

11-20-2013, 01:16 AMamnieI'm pretty sure they waited for the initial sales of ARR to decide IF they even bother with a ps4 client. which is understandable, considering the way 1.0 wentQuote:
