Everybody has been waiting for this crossover since it was announced at E3 and we just got a glut of new info about Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood which is arriving this August 7th. The upcoming crossover is uniting two juggernauts, and will feature the Warriors of Light challenge “King of the Skies,” and Rathalos, the flying wyverns from Monster Hunter: World.
The crossover arrives with the new upgrade (the patch 4.36 update), alongside the next installment of The Forbidden Land Eureka, titled The Pagos Expedition. Level 70 players in FF XIV: Online who have completed the “Stormblood” quest will be able to brawl with the giant Rathalos in both Normal and Extreme versions of “The Great Hunt” Trial. The Normal version will have eight players team up to face the legendary beast, the Extreme version will challenge four players to defeat the monster, with numerous unique mechanics included as a homage to Monster Hunter: World and its gameplay.
There will also be special rewards available to those who play through the collaboration content, including:
- New Armor Set – Inspired by Rathalos
- New Minions – Poogie and Palico
- New Mount – Rathalos
- New Furnishing – BBQ Spit
Get all the info about both patches here.
