By JulianApr 22,2025

Final Fantasy XIV Mobile, the mobile version of the renowned MMORPG that initially faced severe criticism upon its 2010 release, is now generating significant excitement among fans. After a disastrous start, Square Enix revamped the game, leading to the critically acclaimed Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Now, with a potential mid-summer release, anticipation is building, especially with a recent Chinese iOS listing pointing to an August 29th launch.

The journey of Final Fantasy XIV from its initial flop to becoming a beloved MMO is a testament to Square Enix's dedication. Continuous expansions and updates have kept the game thriving, making a mobile version highly anticipated. Our own Shaun Walton has provided comprehensive insights into what we can expect from the mobile release.

The big question on everyone's mind is how feature-complete Final Fantasy XIV Mobile will be upon release. While a late August release seems plausible, given that Tencent's Lightspeed is handling the port, an earlier release for Chinese players could also happen. Naoki Yoshida, a key figure in the series, has confirmed that the mobile version has been in the works for some time, suggesting a global release might follow soon after the initial launch.

Judging by the enthusiasm and care with which this project is being approached, fans can look forward to a polished and lovingly crafted mobile port.
