Catalog note

Not a persistent MMO

  • Not actually an MMO — a single-player (or primarily single-player) console/PC RPG included here as a catalog miscategorization.
  • If exploring it anyway: an all-new, standalone dark-fantasy action RPG produced by the team behind Final Fantasy XIV's revival.
  • Praised for its cinematic Eikon battles and mature, politically driven storyline.
  • Fully playable offline, with no persistent online world, servers, or other real players involved.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • This entry does not belong in a true MMO catalog — flagged as a miscategorization, similar to past corrections for other non-MMO titles.
  • No shared world, guilds, or multiplayer systems of any kind exist in this game, despite its MMO-veteran production team.
  • Best evaluated as a single-player action RPG rather than compared against genre-typical MMORPGs.
  • Not to be confused with Final Fantasy XI or XIV, the series' actual MMORPG entries.
