Prepare for Final Fantasy XIV Online Patch 6.2’s Island Sanctuary with Weeklong Livestream from “Mogchute Farm”

SQUARE ENIX is today kicking off a weeklong livestream hosted at “Mogchute Farm” to celebrate the upcoming launch of Island Sanctuary, a new type of casual solo content releasing in Patch 6.2 as the next major update to the critically acclaimed MMORPG, FINAL FANTASY XIV Online, releasing on Tuesday, August 23.

From today until Friday, August 19 at 1pm BST, the livestreamed event will allow viewers to experience life on a farm from the comfort of their own homes as they look forward to the release of Island Sanctuary in Patch 6.2: Buried Memory. Island Sanctuary will allow players to build and customize their own personal farm in-game on an island paradise abundant with wildlife, by gathering materials, building facilities, caring for creatures, and more, all without the need for prior crafting or gathering experience.
