Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S Versions of Final Fantasy 14 Experience Issues Post Dawntrail Expansion Launch
Since the official launch of the Dawntrail expansion, the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S versions of Final Fantasy 14 have been facing some unfortunate issues.
An update on the game’s official Lodestone news website has confirmed that the development team is actively investigating an “issue wherein the game becomes unresponsive when transitioning between areas,” specifically on the Xbox versions of the popular MMORPG. The post delves into the ongoing issue and the team’s progress in resolving it.
“Our current progress involves rigorous testing of each potential cause of the issue and verifying the impact of each measure. However, it is highly likely that it will take time to fully uncover and address the issue, so we have applied a version of the process that we believe may be effective to the public servers. Therefore, while we have not yet received the final confirmation that the issue has been fully addressed, we will continue to monitor the situation in the public environment after the patch has been applied.”
If the issue persists, the team is considering extending the free game time they had previously announced. This move would give players, who usually have to pay a monthly subscription fee to play Final Fantasy 14, some additional time to enjoy the game at no extra cost.
The release of Dawntrail marks the first major expansion after the much-anticipated arrival of the Xbox versions of Final Fantasy 14. It is expected that there may be some growing pains as the MMORPG, which has been around for a decade, adjusts to the new platform. Hopefully, these issues will be resolved soon so that Xbox players can fully enjoy the exciting new expansion alongside players on other platforms.
