Patch 6.5 Preview Part 1

Patch 6.5: Growing Light



(00:54:55)

We began the broadcast by revealing the patch title for Patch 6.5. The Patch 6.5 main scenario will be delivered in two parts: Part 1 in early October 2023, and Part 2 in mid-January 2024.



(00:58:10)

Here’s the patch schedule in tandem with our global Fan Festival schedule.

• Patch 6.5 and Part 1 of the main scenario will be released after the North American Fan Festival.
• Patch 6.51 will be released in late October after the European Fan Festival.
• Patch 6.55 and Part 2 of the main scenario will be released in mid-January 2024 after the Japanese Fan Festival.

We’ll go into more detail about each patch at the Fan Festivals, so we hope you’ll look forward to it!

New Main Scenario Quests



(01:01:49)

We took a sneak peek at what’s to come in Patch 6.5, starting with the main scenario.



One of the screenshots appears to show Ryne and Zero walking together. How did they meet, and what led to Zero’s arrival in the First? We certainly don’t want to spoil that for you, so please look forward to it!

Endwalker Tribal Alliance Quests (6.55)



(01:04:09)

This will be our first tribal alliance quest in a while. You’ll need to complete a lot of prerequisites to unlock this extra story content, but you still have some time before it’s added in Patch 6.55. If you haven’t caught up already, we urge you to experience each of the Endwalker tribe quests and the stories they have to tell!

We took a sneak peek at some screenshots here as well.



Tataru’s Grand Endeavor Continues (Patch 6.55)



(01:06:14)

We tried to avoid revealing too much in these screenshots, but they turned out quite bland… You’ll have to wait until Patch 6.55 is implemented to see what we omitted!

Somehow Further Hildibrand Adventures (6.55)



(01:07:24)

The Hildibrand quests, however, are a treasure trove of interesting screenshots! It seems we can expect another spectacular display from father and son in Patch 6.55.

Further Manderville Weapons (6.55)



(01:09:47)

And of course, the Manderville quest update also means a new stage of Manderville weapons as well. These ominous screenshots seem to be hinting at some strange occurrences in the near future.

Splendorous Tools (6.51)



(01:10:59)

Splendorous tools will also continue, though this will be coming in Patch 6.51 instead.
