We now have our most concrete bit of evidence to back upꦗ long-whispered rumors about Final Fantasy 14 Mobile, and it comes from the Chinese Government, of all th♚ings. 

reports that China's National Press and Publication Administration has approved a new batch of "import games" that are now allowed to come out in the country, including an unnamed Rainbow Six game, Marvel Snap, Marvel Rivals, Paper Mario: The Origami King, and a mobile version of Final Fantasy 14 coming from Square Enix and tech cღonglomerate Tencent, which you might recognize as the company that's already 💝bought up large chunks of the industry.

Niko Partners' Daniel Ahmad elaborates that "it's expected to be a standalone MMORPG separate from the PC game," though there's no officiaꦜl confirmation on that as of right now since the port/spin-off/standalone-thingy hasn't even been properly announced by Square Enix and Co.

News about the smash success MMO coming to more platforms isn't too surprising since it's beloved by waves of fans, hugely profitable for its publisher, and the development team is excited about enough ideas to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:fuel them until at least 9.0. Final Fantasy 14 just 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:came to Xbox consoles ahead of its most recent expansion, and producer Naoki 'Yoshi-P' Yoshida said he "wo𒁏uld love" to see the gamღe on Nintendo Switch's successor. An even smaller screen port just seems like an in🍃evit♐ability.

Elsewhere, the big 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dawntrail balance patch dropped earlier this week to "raise the DPS of certain🎃 jobs 📖rather than lower them," as Pictomancer mains survived with no nerfs affecting the new painter role.

Final Fantasy 14’s new raid armor makes some of the MMO’s lewdest pants even lewder, and the community’s treating this bug as a feature.
