Final Fantasy 14 hit a major milestone by recording the highest player count in a decade with the Dawntrail expansion. Naoki Yoshida, the game’s producer and director, posted a blog confirming the game had not seen such player count numbers since A Realm Reborn was released in 2013.

Usually, the number of players fluctuates depending on the hype. Games typically receive high traffic after new releases or expansions and gradually experience a gradual decline in numbers. Final Fantasy 14 released Dawntrail as the fifth expansion pack for Square Enix. As expected, warriors showed up in numbers to experience the game in the expansion. 

The Dawntrail expansion spiked the number of concurrent players to a record high the ten-year-old multiplayer game had not witnessed before, despite mixed reactions on Steam. The expansion included a graphical update that introduced a fresh experience to gamers.

Yoshida apologizes for Final Fantasy 14 issues

In the blog, Yoshida apologized to the gaming community for Final Fantasy’s shortcomings and stated that the team was working on fixing the issues. He assured FF14 players that a community update would be released soon to follow up on the fixes once they were integrated into the game.
