Final Fantasy XIV Beta Info & New Dungeon Video


Posted on December 29, 2012 by Rae Michelle Richards

The world of Final Fantasy XIV came crashing down with their world ending event earlier this year. Square Enix is working on a new version of the game with a brand new engine, new mechanics and other enhancements. The publisher has announced plans to begin a multi-stage beta test of A Realm Reborn starting this February. Alongside the announcement of the beta testing plan they also released a short video from an alpha version of the game showcasing the new instanced dungeons.

Legacy players from the original FFXIV and holders of a special pass bundled with Final Fantasy XIV will gain access to all four stages of the beta. The beta steps are as follows:

Phase One – Testing core gameplay mechanics

Phase Two – Testing the new controller only interface

Phase Three – Closed Playstation 3 testing

Phase Four – Open beta tests on both platforms

A brief three minute video posted by the developers of the game gives us a glimpse into the instanced dungeons we can expect in A Realm Reborn. There is no commentary or additional information available, it looks to be a raw video capture from the alpha version of the game.
