Patch 4.36, FFXIV COMPANION App, and the Feast Regional Championship 2018

Before we jumped into the content planned for Patch 4.4, we went over the upcoming Forbidden Land of Eureka: Pagos Expedition scheduled to release in Patch 4.36, the FINAL FANTASY XIV Companion App, and the Feast Regional Championship 2018 currently underway.

Forbidden Land of Eureka: Pagos Expedition

The Forbidden Land of Eureka: Pagos Expedition will finally open its doors in Patch 4.36 scheduled for Tuesday, August 7. We showed a walkthrough video of the area, so be sure to check it out.




Eureka weapons will be able to be further upgraded in Pagos. The weapon shown in the above image is taken during the upgrade process, and a special effect will be added to the weapon in a later stage.

The FINAL FANTASY XIV COMPANION App

We're currently going through the final checks for the app release. The app will be released once the approval from the software distributors is finalized, so we won't be able to give an exact time. We'll be sure to announce it via the Lodestone, so please look forward to it. During the broadcast we did a quick recap of the features that'll be available on the companion app.



The scheduler in the companion app can be linked with the standard calendar app on your mobile device as well.




In order to sell or purchase items from the market board, you'll need to use a Kupo Nut. Kupo Nuts are given to users as a bonus for logging in each day, and you can store up to a certain amount. We chose to utilize this system as it puts a large stress load on the server to constantly access the market board.



As a part of the premium service option, users will receive one additional retainer. This includes both an additional retainer and retainer slot, so those that already have hired the maximum number of retainers will be able to hire one additional retainer.
