final fantasy 14 The second major expansion, storm bloodFree download now for next month.
As highlighted on the game’s website, players can claim and download Stormblood for free until May 8. There’s a slight catch, as you need to be an existing owner of Final Fantasy 14 Starter Edition to do so. It’s a pretty big expansion pack for free, and considering the starter edition also includes the game’s first expansion, Heavensward, you’ll be able to complete most of the main story for not much money.
The extension will also be free on all platforms. On PlayStation, all you have to do is find the Stormblood purchase page on the PlayStation Store, and it’ll be free as long as you own the starter edition. For PC/Mac players, you can buy it for free from the Square Enix Store or Steam. Thankfully, Square Enix has set up a little page to show you all the instructions for redeeming the expansion pack, in case you’re unsure.
For those in the know, producer and director Naoki Yoshida hosted his semi-regular producer letter, detailing the game’s next patch, Dark Throne, or patch 6.4, due out in late May. Like all expanded updates, this one continues the main story, which follows your Warrior of Light and Zero. This update introduces a new dungeon, and for those who aren’t up to date and want to play the dungeon alone, the duty support system is being expanded to Stormblood (great for those who just picked it up for free).
Final Fantasy 14 was voted the best Final Fantasy game late last year as part of the series’ 35th anniversary poll, just in case you were wondering if it was worth checking out.
