As a reminder, Final Fantasy XIV: Online is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed by Square Enix. The current version, supervised and produced by Naoki Yoshida, was released in August 2013 on PlayStation 3 and Windows, replacing the original version launched in 2010 which had failed. Since then, the game has been adapted for PlayStation 4, macOS, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.

The story of Final Fantasy XIV is set in the enchanting world of Eorzea, five years after the devastating calamity of the 7th Umbral Era, which marked the end of the previous version of the game. During this catastrophe, the ancient primal Bahamut escaped from his prison inside the satellite Dalamud, causing an apocalypse in Eorzea. Through magic, the player's character, from the original version, managed to escape this destruction and traveled through time to the beginning of A Realm Reborn.
