The first details of Final Fantasy XIV: Online’s highly anticipated Patch 4.1 have been revealed during a special 14-hour livestream held to mark the MMO’s fourth anniversary. And before we get into all the details, as a rather dedicated FFXIV player, let me just preface this patch reveal by saying that Patch 4.1 is going to be absolutely massive and should have something to please everyone. Hildibrand is back, we’re going back to Ivalice for some FFXII crossover, there’s more Coils, Shinryu’s extreme mode, new PVP modes, Grand Company squads get new missions, housing in Shirogane goes on sale, and we get new Expert roulette dungeons.
That is… a stunningly massive amount of content.
Set to release in early October, Patch 4.1—officially titled The Legend Returns—will be the first major patch release following the launch of Stormblood, the title’s critically acclaimed second expansion pack. So, you will absolutely want to log in on launch day for this one.
During the celebratory livestream, FINAL FANTASY XIV Online Producer and Director Naoki Yoshida hosted the 38th installment of the ‘Letter from the Producer LIVE’ series, where he revealed much of the content that will come with Patch 4.1: The Legend Returns:
• New Main Scenario and Side Quests – The fan favorite Hildibrand quest series also returns.

New art revealed during the stream provided fans a tantalizing glimpse of the “Return to Ivalice” landscape:
