Square Enix started taking pre-orders in its official storefront for a Final Fantasy XIV Starlight mug based on the Gridanian Starlight Celebration Kinderpunsch that was a reward during the FFXIV Christmas holiday events. It costs $42.99 and will ship in August 2026.  There is also a matching $39.99 cushion cover that will appear at the same time.

We’ve seen the Gridanian Starlight Kinderpunsch mug appear multiple times in FFXIV. It first appeared as a furnishing reward during the 2024 installment of the event, both as a single mug and tower. In 2025, it showed up in the Gridanian Gulp and Gridanian Sup emotes. It features a forested Gridania backdrop with Moogles flying around, and the cup resembles the sorts of ones we see at Christkindlmarkets in the real world. 

Here’s how the cup looks in the real world, and I included some official screenshots of the reward from the in-game holiday events.

The cushion features a similar design. It is almost 18 inches long and 18 inches wide. You only get the cover and not an actual cushion inside of it. The front features the Gridanian design, and the back has the full Final Fantasy XIV logo.

The Final Fantasy XIV Starlight mug and cushion will launch in August 2026, and FFXIV is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC.
