The Final Fantasy XIV: Eorzea Academy manga will get an English localization. Square Enix announced it will release the title outside Japan on September 19, 2023. There’s no exact release date yet for the alternate reality tale. However, the company did share a teaser for the cover art, which shows the twins Alisaie and Alphinaud Leveilleur in their school uniforms. It isn’t the final art, however, as it is essentially the Japanese one.
For those unfamiliar, the Final Fantasy XIV: Eorzea Academy manga is set in an alternate reality. In it, the Scions of the Seventh Dawn and other major characters are all students and teachers at a high school. They go through more slice-of-life sorts of affairs, though their personalities tend to remain intact from the MMORPG. However, there’s some conflict, as the new academy ended up merging the Academy of Light and the Academy of Darkness students together with the expectation everyone would get along.
The manga first started to appear in December 2021 in Japan. Back in December 2022, Square Enix announced the chapters would be collected in a physical volume. That launched in Japan in February 2023.
Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PS4, PS5, and PC. The Final Fantasy XIV: Eorzea Academy manga will appear in English in September 2023.
