So what's up with The Last Remnant?

It's just a floating piece of land on the edge of Azys Lla. Unremarkable, yet it has a name. What purpose does it serve?

It's a memorial to all the players who can't buy land due to being on overpopulated servers.

Future content. Please, look forward to it!

Maybe its just a reference to the pc game The Last Remnant

A combination of Waffilicious and Sensyon's answers. They already added Rush and Irina's hair styles, so it's likely there's more to come. The game was an interesting concept... Too bad it was on 360 and ended up doing poorly because of that.

It's on Steam, though I have no idea how good the port is.

PC version which is available on steam is a little bit better, offering a few extras that the 360 version does not.

It comes with the extra DLC, and also lets you recruit "The white seven" - the bosses you fight in the bases.

Uh, is it possible this could be related to that ship floating around in the sea of clouds?

It wouldn't surprise me if it was related ... didn't the devs say the maps were more "capable" or something of being expanded upon for future content?

It's probably going to be important in future content, like a lot of small island areas scattered about (just like the island north of the Makers' Quarter in the Dravanian Hinterlands).

Also a shout-out to SE's game The Last Remnant, probably.

Although the controls' console heritage shows, I didn't run into any particular bugs/glitches/usability issues.

Some of the music from that game was nice so I can only hope.

Soken actually did the soundtrack to The Last Remnant so it's fitting that there be a reference to the game.

The fact that it's not only a named region but also marked with a pin on the map suggests it has greater importance than just being a reference though. Azys Lla is absolutely full of buildings and labs that you can enter with no content in them yet so I wouldn't be surprised if the 3.X patches expand on the region a great deal.

Objection! The soundtrack to The Last Remnant was by SE staff composer and Black Mages member Tsuyoshi Sekito, who contributed the Twin Adders theme as well as the level 50 Job Quest boss theme to the (Before Meteor) FFXIV soundtrack.

But back on topic, more Azys Lla is a given. There are a number of areas with no enemy spawns that look ripe to become quest hubs in future patches. (If only we had an Allagan somewhere to help us explore it...)

Huh, I was certain Soken did at least some of the soundtrack. I guess not.

Ok some one help me High Jack the Garlen Ship from Azys Lla so we can blast that frigging door open. Fenral is going to have a conniption if we leave Eorzea with out opening that tower door.

The conniption's been had. Now I'm just slamming my head against the door until the pain stops.

SE published a FF-similar Game named "The Last Remnant" maybe a easter egg?

Fantastic game that most people never played. Oh wait... you mean in XIV....

I recently bought it for PC during the Steam Summer Sale. Even before I bought it, I knew the PC version was superior to the 360 version in every conceivable way. This includes a higher cap on the number of characters you can have as well as better algorithms for learning skills.
