Square Enix announced that a FFXIV HORI Tactical Assault Commander F14 keypad controller will appear April 2024. It will work with the PS4, PS5, and PC versions of the game.
Pre-orders already went live on the official Square Enix Store for the $139.99 device and sold out. However, people can still wishlist there. It is also still available on Amazon. The peripheral only has a “mid-April 2024” release window and no exact release date yet.
There are 21 keys on the FFXIV HORI Tactical Assault Commander F14 keypad controller. Each one of those can be programmed to someone’s liking. People also have dedicated Esc and Profile buttons, as well as a joystick. Backlight functionality is present to help make things clearer to see. There is a companion app for PCs to work with it, which allows people to set up different profiles and customize the controller.
Square Enix and Hori also shared a gallery of images with us that show how someone’s hand could rest on the keypad and included screenshots of the companion app to show some of the user customization options.
Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PS4, PS5, and PC, with 6.55 part 2 available as of January 2024. It is also headed to the Xbox Series X in Spring 2024. The Dawntrail expansion is in development for a Summer 2024 release. People will be able to pick up the FFXIV HORI Tactical Assault Commander F14 keypad controller from Amazon or Square Enix direct sometime around the middle of April 2024 for the PS4, PS5, and PC.
