Final Fantasy XIV Mobile, the mobile version of the iconic MMORPG that initially faced a rocky start but soared to new heights with its rebirth as Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, is generating significant buzz. Fans are eagerly awaiting its release, and according to a recent listing on the Chinese iOS App Store, the launch could be as soon as August 29th.
Originally launched in 2010, Final Fantasy XIV was met with overwhelmingly negative feedback. This led Square Enix to take the unprecedented step of pulling the game and rebuilding it from scratch. The result was the critically acclaimed Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, which has since maintained its popularity through continuous expansions and updates. The anticipation for a mobile version is high, as evidenced by the excitement from fans like Shaun Walton, who has provided comprehensive coverage on what to expect from the mobile release.

The big question on everyone's mind is how feature-complete Final Fantasy XIV Mobile will be upon release. A late August release date seems plausible, especially considering that Tencent's Lightspeed is handling the port. There's also the possibility of an earlier release for Chinese players. According to series alumni Naoki Yoshida, the mobile version has been in the works for some time, suggesting a well-polished and lovingly crafted port is on the horizon.
