Notes Regarding the Free Login Campaign
The free login period begins after logging in via the game launcher using your Square Enix user name and password.
Including the day on which you first log in, the free login period lasts approximately four days. For example, players who log in on November 20, 2018 at 12:00 a.m. can play free of charge until November 23, 2018 at 11:59 p.m.
Players who are logged in when their free login period expires will be forcibly logged out from the game.
