is treading new ground in multiple ways. Not only has the Warrior of Light arrived on the shores of a mysterious new continent, but players are embarking on a brand new storyline separate from the conflict with Garlemand and the machinations of the Ascians that ran across the previous expansions. , a continent inspired by South America, with its own cultures and peoples separate from Eorzea.
The storyline involves the Warrior of Light and the Scions of the Seventh Dawn becoming embroiled in a succession war between rival heirs, which may drive a wedge between these loyal companions. Dexerto recently participated in a preview event for Dawntrail, where I had hands-on time with the expansion’s new content and got an early look at Tural, one of the early dungeons that will appear, and the two new jobs that will be introduced.

Many of its NPCs were removed or given dummy dialogue to avoid spoilers, so I can’t say how active the zone will be when the expansion launches. What I can say is that . Tural is a land of vibrant and varied plant life, with red and violet blooms dotted across the great green jungles, clear blue waters, and rolling sands.
It’s truly a tropical paradise, with its fields of flowers standing out as some of the most visually striking landscapes seen in Final Fant.
