Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker

In case you are in doubt about the possibility of running Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker on your PC, Square Enix has made available in these hours the official benchmark tool that allows you to remove the uncertainties and understand if your configuration is able to support the new expansion.

The Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker PC benchmark requires a download of 2.2GB of data, which can be performed at this address. In this regard, Square Enix has also released a trailer dedicated to the operation, which allows you to see some elements present within the new maxi-expansion for the MMORPG.

The release date of Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker is set for November 23, 2021, so you have plenty of time to get organized, but it must be said that, at least based on the official hardware requirements that we report below, getting the new game piece to work shouldn't be a big problem. We also remember the preview of Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker released last February and the fact that, apparently, the new expansion will not be the end of the game.

Minimum requirements:

OS: Windows 8.1 64 bit, Windows 10 64 bit CPU: Intel Corei5 2.4GHz or higher Memory: 4 GB RAM GPU: NVIDIA Geforce GTX750 or higher, AMD Radeon R7 260X or higher DirectX: Version 11 Network: Broadband Internet connection Storage space: 80 GB Sound Card: A sound card which supports DirectSound

‘Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker’ is receiving a large increase in pre-orders

Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker is reportedly experiencing a massive increase in pre-orders, compared to the previous expansion.


According to the most recent Final Fantasy XIV Live Letter broadcast (July 10), Endwalker has apparently received a 160-180 per cent increase in pre-orders compared to the previous Shadowbringers expansion.


As the broadcast was in Japanese, Final Fantasy XIV fans took to the official discord channel for the game to translate what is said to English.


The translation, which was then posted to Resetera, features the words of game director Naoki Yoshida who noted in the introduction of that stream that the “player numbers are growing quickly”.


Yoshida’s translated words read: “If you want to be able to play early access, make sure to pre-order! We have a lot of pre-orders, 160-180% more compared to Shadowbringers.”


The discord post also explains that the developers plan on a “multi-million investment in the server infrastructure because the player numbers are growing so quickly.” However, this will not make it in time for the 6.0 patch (Endwalker release date).


The MMORPG has been growing incredibly over the past year ever since Square Enix allowed new players to experience the game with a free trial up until level 60, which includes over 100 hours of content as well as the critically acclaimed Heavensward expansion.


Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker will launch on November 23, later this year and will feature a brand new playable race along with two new Jobs.


Final Fantasy XIV recently beat its concurrent player record on Steam after streamer Asmongold played the game for the first time. The game hit a player count of 47,542, an increase on its previous record of 41,200 which was set back in June 2020.
