In commemoration of A Realm Reborn’s 10th anniversary, we are excited to announce the FINAL FANTASY XIV TTRPG (tabletop role-playing game), the first of its genre to be officially released by the FINAL FANTASY series!

Tabletop RPGs are games in which a group of participants create and act as their own character in a dynamic narrative. Each decision can lead to all sorts of unpredictable moments, as the outcomes of players’ choices are determined by a roll of the dice!

Newcomers will be well-equipped with this starter set, which includes scenarios supervised by the FFXIV Development team and original dice, all carefully crafted to provide an engaging experience for fans of FFXIV and tabletop RPGs.

Embark on your own original adventures in familiar locales and dungeons to rediscover FFXIV’s FATEs, monsters, and NPCs in tabletop form!

Visit the FINAL FANTASY XIV TTRPG teaser site^[https://www.square-enix-shop.com/ffxivttrpg/en/ (archive: https://ghostarchive.org/archive/ja3ZN)] for product details and future updates.

Oh interesting. Seems to be based on DnD from the looks of it, but I wonder how it compares to the Eorzea RPG fan-made Pathfinder setting. Which seems to be offline now, hrm. Probably got a C&D ahead of this official release, damn.

Any TTRPG players familiar enough with FF XIV to weigh in on how they feel about this?

I've got friends who bounced off FF14 because they can't/won't pay the sub, so this could be a way for them to experience the world and the story. I'm curious what kind of system it will be using though. They're only giving d20s and (lots of) d6s in the starter set, so I doubt it's based on DnD…
