Final Fantasy XIV players will once again have a chance to earn unique weapons when the Yo-Kai Watch event returns on April 24, 2024. The event first appeared in 2016 and has been re-run several times since then.
Beginning the event requires players to have reached level 15 in a class and to have completed the “Envoy” quests that take you to the 3 major cities. After that, the event can be started by speaking to the “Poor-heeled Youth” in the Steps of Nald in Ul’dah. Equipping the Yo-Kai Watch will allow you to earn Yo-Kai medals by participating in FATE events in the areas surrounding the cities, or in any areas added in the Heavensward and Stormblood expansions.
Yo-Kai medals can then be exchanged with the Wandering Executive located in the central area of the Gold Saucer, accessible via airship, who will introduce you to various Yo-Kai. By meeting enough Yo-Kai, players will earn the ability to summon them as minions, as well as obtain the Whisper-go mount. Befriending all 17 will unlock the newly added framer’s kit for purchase at the Gold Saucer.
The unique weapons can be earned with Legendary Yo-Kai medals, earned by completing specific FATEs with the relevant minion summoned. You can get a look at a few of the Final Fantasy XIV and Yo-kai Watch event weapons and minions available in the gallery below:
Square Enix recently released an official FFXIV: Dawntrail benchmark tool, allowing players to test their hardware with the upcoming expansions graphical updates. Meanwhile back in February 2024, it was announced that Hololive Vtuber Inugami Korone would voice a character in the Yo-Kai Watch anime.
The Yo-Kai Watch: Gather One, Gather All! collaboration event will return to Final Fantasy XIV on April 24, 2024. The game itself is readily available on PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X while the Dawntrail expansion is set to launch on July 2, 2024.
