Notice from the Team:
On the launch day of FINAL FANTASY XIV MOBILE (Chinese Edition) in the Chinese mainland, we said, "Resonate with the Light, and blaze as one," and promised that the adventure had just begun. Over this time, it is you who have truly brought "Mobile Eorzea" to life. Every suggestion you shared on gameplay, experiences, and features guided us to build the game world. Seasoned Warriors of Light stepped up as mentors, walking newcomers through the confusion of their first steps into Eorzea. And countless mornings and nights spent fighting side by side came together to form the vast, warm community we once envisioned together. To have resonated with all of you adventurers on this journey has been the greatest fortune of this world we built together, and a memory we will always treasure.
Today, however, we must regretfully share an important announcement. Due to adjustments in business operations and changes in the market environment, Tencent and Square Enix have, through amicable negotiation, decided to terminate the licensing agreement for FINAL FANTASY XIV MOBILE (Chinese Edition). We are sorry to announce that we will officially stop the game operation for FINAL FANTASY XIV MOBILE (Chinese Edition) in the Chinese mainland at 11:00 (UTC+8) on September 30, 2026.
To everyone who has journeyed with us until now, we sincerely apologize that we must end this service without being able to fully live up to your expectations. At the same time, we wish to express our heartfelt gratitude to all of you who have supported us along the way. Thank you, truly, from the bottom of our hearts. To everyone who has been looking forward to the global version, we also offer our sincere apologies for being unable to meet your expectations.
