Back when the May 2024 Mountain Dew event kicked off in FFXIV, Mountain Dew Gaming representative Big Sippin also appeared in the game. In addition to giving away promotional items, the person is playing, and they just beat the Stormblood expansion.
Ahead of these events, the Mountain Dew Gaming account would let people know when Big Sippin would be going through major FFXIV quests and invite players to join. On June 1, 2024, as an example, the account noted Big Sippin’s location on Eureka on Hyperion before heading to Eureka and asked for assistance.
Here’s the Mountain Dew Gaming video showcasing the FFXIV Stormblood boss fight Big Sippin went through on the way to Shadowbringers. Note that there are spoilers for the expansion in it.
As a reminder, this Mountain Dew crossover event with rewards only lasts until July 14, 2024. So it doesn’t cut-off right when the 7.0 patch arrives and Dawntrail debuts. People still have a chance to buy drinks and earn items like the Mountain Zu mount once the update appears. The Mountain Dew Gaming X account also regularly notes where Big Sippin is.
Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, and the Dawntrail expansion debuts on July 2, 2024. TheMountain Dew event with Mountain Zu mount runs until July 14, 2024.
