The FINAL FANTASY XIV Announcement Showcase is on Friday, February 5 showcased the version 6.0 ENDWALKER coming this fall. Here are a few notable updates coming to the next version of FF14.
Final Fantasy XIV ENDWALKER Updates
A Higher Level Cap
FF14 Endwalker will allow higher levels of up to 90. During the announcement there was mentioned of reducing the point system. While more information is to come, it appears there will be reduced HP for bosses while there is a reduction in Attack hits from characters. So it seems like a percentage reduction in numbers proportion to all monsters, bosses and characters.
- The differences in values will be reduced between levels 51 – 80.
- Max Damage per attack will be reduced.
- Experience points will be reduced.
They went on to mention that your character will not be weaker.
We are looking to learn more with more updates.
Introduction of Sage Healer to FF14 Endwalker
Sage is one of two new roles being introduced to FF14 ENDWALKER. Sage is a healer that uses a 4 drone like weapon called “Nouliths”. They seem to have a decent ability to heal players while they look very offensive in attacks to enemies.
It appears Sages will be able to heal, build barriers, fight using Aether and augment their own magic abilities. More on this new role is expected to be introduced in future events.
Other FF14 Endwalker Updates
Estinien the Legendary Dragoon
We are not fully sure yet how but the Legendary Dragoon, Estinien is suppose to have a role in your characters game play in the coming update.
New City Introduction of Radz-at-han

Island Sanctuary on FF14 6.0
Island Sanctuary is the most curious update for Endwalker. The island Sanctuary will allow you to go and create on the land. So think of it as a non fighting area to it with the ability to sell what you create there.
FF14 comes to PS5

They mentioned that players with FF14 services accounts registered for PS4 will be able to download the PS5 version at no extra cost. Monthly Subscriptions will still be required to play ff14 on PS5 like all other versions or platforms.
Open Beta for PS5 begins on April 13, 2021.
Final Fantasy Festival on May 15 & 16 2021
This May, stay tuned to more updates and reveals for Final Fantasy XIV ENDWALKER at the Final Fantasy Festival. It is expected to be a bigger dive in to all the announcements for Endwalker. Hopefully during the event, we will learn about the second role to be introduced in the coming update, as well as more about the Island Sanctuary being brought to version 6.0.
The games max level cap is currently 80. Really excited to see if there will be a new storyline for the FF14 Game, level max, new capabilities, and version for PS5. It has been a while since I have played one of my characters in the game series but would definitely binge this weekend based on their announcement.
Hades is a addictive game. Hands down. Once you start playing, you want to leave the underworld. The game begins with Zagreus, Prince of the Underworld, attempting to leave his home the underworld. You will need to fight your way out, using the items you buy and the powers you receive from the Olympians who give them to you.
How to play Hades is a challenge for new players. Eventually you will reach monsters you can not defeat easily and will more than likely die. Once dead, and you continue playing you will be given more God powers. Make sure you choose powers wisely. There are 3 major power variations. Powerful Attack, Speed, and Defense. Picking 2 gods powers on the same power type will replace the original. I chose for the first 3 Gods, Zeus powerful Thunderbolt strike, Poseidon’s water dash (underworld is fire so water movements hurt all monsters), and Athena’s on Defense.
Check out my first time playing time gameplay from 
To defeat Talos the Rebuilt Legendary Automation fighting can be tough even when you are maxed out on god abilities and attack hits with weapons. His two main attacks are a upward slash (seen in picture above) and a beam he pulses in a circle. You can avoid the beams by hiding behind the columns in the far corner.
To defeat Lieutenant Steropes, fighting like fighting any cyclopes is the way to go. His two main attacks are a slam that hits anything in its radius and a shock wave attack he sends outward in a wave. Mastering dodge will allow you to slow time to move under its legs and hit it with combos from behind. Use Athena’s Dash to stun the lieutenant. Once he is stunned, unleash all your god powers and thunderbolt shots if you have them.
The False Knight in Hollow Knight is the hardest boss you’ll face so far in the game.
Watch out for its shock wave attacks and once you hit its head the first time, it will trigger bombs to fall down from above. Watch how we beat the false knight below.
Hollow Knight has been around for a while but is still a great game for first time players.
The story can captivate you and while the game play can be reparative, you’ll find yourself playing to the end.
Following Mario bros rules, if they touch you, you get injured.
It is very easy to beat and has a place where you can heal if you need to. Also, do not forget to free the caterpillar. It gives tons of coins if you find them all.
To defeat Kottos the All-Seeing, God powers are the way to go. His only attack is to roll you over. Mastering dodge helps you to keep him contained without having to use up all your potions. Once he is stunned, unleash all your god powers and thunderbolt shots if you have them.
To defeat the Ghost Lieutenant of Tartaros, God powers are the way to go. Regular fighting does get you through the battle at snails pace, unless you are maxed out. I would have to recommend restoring your stamina bar and continuing to hammer away with God powers. Also, focus on stunning the Ghost Lieutenant. Once he is stunned, the monsters he summons disappear.
