I played FFXIV on PS3 before Christmas, and I really loved it. But the PS3 was showing its age trying to run it so I decided to stop playing until the PS4 version came out.

Anyway, I have been trying to find an answer to this question but havent been able to.

To upgrade my account from PS3 to PS4 do I need the PS3 disc to FFXIV? as I cant find it I never needed it to play on PS3 so it other than the initial install it was never in the console, and now I cant find it just an emtpy box.

Will I need this disc to upgrade on PS4 and use my same character and account?
