Yesterday we gathered the FFXIV development team, operations team, and other related departments and held a project all-hands meeting.

The main theme was a recap of the current time period, confirmation of future period project goals, and coordinating them with milestones, but we also showed off the 2.0 FFXIV client that is already under QA testing.

This is a crazy large project and since the current version and 2.0 are being developed side-by-side, you would really feel the reality of it if we didn’t show it off. (Even some of the development staff can’t believe that we are almost completely re-making an MMO in about a year and a half. ^^; )

In other words, the 2.0 client has reached that realistic level. Now we are entering the phase where we are switching the maps, adding dungeons, transplanting updated content and adding new, implementing a ton of quests, and seeing how much stuff we can put in with our mass production line.

All that’s left is a battle against time. It will take a little bit more before we have something we can show all of you. I’d really like to show you FFXIV 2.0 as a working game, but in the mean time play out the Seventh Umbral Era events and look forward to it.

The PC specs will be lower than they are currently and we will be releasing the PS3 version.
We are working our hardest to allow for an even greater amount of people to play and enjoy the game, so please cheer us on!

To Yoshida-san and the FF XIV Development Team,

That's great information, and good to hear things are coming along!

I eagerly await the 2.0 revamp, with unique, lush, distinct areas to explore, adventure and make fun memories in for the new Final Fantasy XIV!

Keep up the good work!

A year and a half to rebuild a game...Even with some of the data already there, that's a massive project feat. I wish you guys the best of luck with continued development!

And I hope Yoshi-P doesn't get himself sick again. ;_;

Greetings! Producer and Director Yoshida here,
