Square Enix Showcases Final Fantasy XIV Dungeons In New Video

January 2, 2013

Square Enix has made a number of changes to its troubled MMO Final Fantasy XIV and hopes to win back the favor of fans with A Realm Reborn.

To give you an early taste of what is to come from the game's dungeons, the studio has released a new video chock-full of gameplay. It's important to note that the footage was captured from the alpha version, so what you see may not necessarily be what you'll get in the final product.

I'm no expert when it comes to Final Fantasy MMOs (or any game of this ilk for that matter), but the thing that immediately jumped out to me was how stunning this game looks—from the character models to the environments and visual effects. Then again, I'm a sucker for the typical FF art style, so that may be swaying my opinion a bit.

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will be launching for the PlayStation 3 and PC later this year.
