Many new features, as well as improvements to existing game mechanics, are planned for the upcoming Final Fantasy version update. Along with the introduction of a new battle system "Salvage," the previously restricted access to the Ruins of Alza'daal will be lifted, allowing players free reign to explore the entire region. Also, several unreachable sections of both the Bhaflau Thickets and the Caedarva Mire will become accessible, and adventurers will be able to encounter the creatures that inhabit those locations.
The maximum capacity for Mog Lockers will be increased to 70 items.
Several new quests, including a story that centers on Aht Urhgan's Serpent Generals, are planned for the upcoming version update.
The experience point reward in Besieged will become obtainable as limit points.
After meeting certain requirements, it will become possible to travel directly to Tu'Lia from the Hall of Transference (found beneath the Crags of Holla, Dem, and Mea).
The Fellow system will be adjusted so that your fellow no longer disappears when you change areas. Fellows will still disappear if the area you enter is not an area in which fellows can normally be called.
