Square Enix announced its FFXIV PAX West 2024 plans, which include a UI panel, a Dawntrail Valigarmanda Challenge, and things like photo ops, experiences, and merchandise. It will be at the entire event starting on August 30, 2024, and the panel will be held on August 31, 2024.
The panel is called “Putting the ‘U’ in UI: Tailoring the Final Fantasy XIV Experience,” and it will be held at 11am PT/2pm ET/8pm CET on August 31, 2024. People actually at PAX West can attend in-person if they go to the Blue Dragon Theatre. They will also get a Dawntrail mini poster. However, it will also be streamed on the FFXIV Twitch and PAX West Twitch channels as well. Lead UI Designer Kei Odagiri will host the presentation. In addition to UI, menus, and general development, the panel will discuss the Group Pose photo option.
The FFXIV Valigarmanda Challenge will involve the Trial boss from Dawntrail. Square Enix noted people attending will be able to team up to get a Dawntrail tote bag with a Tour Tural design. As a reminder, the Worqor Lar Dor (Extreme) Trial appeared alongside the expansion and is an eight person fight.
The other elements of the FFXIV booth experience involve typical convention affair. There will be photo ops, including cosplay gatherings. People new to the game can try it out and win a FFXIV Online Starter Edition PC copy for beating Garuda, Ifrit, or Titan. FFXIV Dawntrail bucket hats and lanyards will be given away, and there will be merchandise on hand too.
