LOS ANGELES (Feb. 2, 2021) – FINAL FANTASY® XIV Online Patch 5.45 arrives today, headlined by the latest chapter in the "Save The Queen" quest series—a multi-part adventure featuring a compelling story written by renowned game creator Yasumi Matsuno (FINAL FANTASY Tactics, FINAL FANTASY XII), who also penned the narrative for the wildly popular Return to Ivalice alliance raid series in Stormblood™.
Patch 5.4 continues the battle for the Bozjan southern front, and also introduces a new large-scale battle, Delubrum Reginae—set in the ruins of Queen Gunnhildr's kingdom beneath the wastes of the Bozja Citadel.

- Resistance Weapon Quests Update: "Save the Queen: Past to Rest" – The battle for the southern front wages on, and having failed to retake Castrum Lacus Litore, chances of victory appear slim for the Resistance.
