Final Fantasy XIV Version 2.0 is moving into development. Naoki Yoshida, the game’s new director and producer, laid out an ambitious road map that includes pets, targeting specific limbs during combat, and Mithra Miqo’te males and Roegadyn females.
Final Fantasy XIV Version 2.0 will add familiar monsters to like Odin, Garuda, and Leviathan.
Chimera, cyclops, and alien-like sahagins will be in the game too.
An in-game event will explain the radical map changes and it looks like these pieces of concept art may give us a hint at that Final Fantasy XIV storyline.
Those changes will take place between August and September 2012. Final Fantasy XIV will then be rebooted a second time in October with a PlayStation 3 closed beta tentatively scheduled for November 2012.
