About the Game’s Protagonist and Gameplay
Eternal Strands is poised to be an engaging action game that centers around a character named Brynn, a Weaver endowed with both physical prowess and magical abilities. Players will journey with Brynn as she explores her environment and battles enormous foes that pose a threat to her world, all while uncovering the secrets of her surroundings.
A Legacy of FFXIV Influences in Gaming
This is not the first instance of FFXIV’s influence extending into other gaming realms. For example, during the collaboration between Square Enix and PlatinumGames on Babylon’s Fall, players encountered several FFXIV emotes and items, which were integrated into the game to enhance its budget and appeal.

Mark your calendars! Eternal Strands is set to launch on January 28, 2025, for platforms including PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC. Meanwhile, Final Fantasy XIV continues to be available for players on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, keeping the legacy of this beloved MMORPG alive.
