So, for those of you who have already been playing Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn on PS3, only one question remains: “How in the world do I upgrade my PS3 version?!”
And this is what we’ll help with you, right here, right now.
Some general information before that:
Step 1: Get Your Promotion Code
- If you’ve played Final Fantasy XIV on PS3, you can upgrade to the PS4 version for free.
- The upgrade will be available from today until at least the end of the year.
- Make sure that you’ve logged in on your PS3 version at least once, so it’s correctly registered in our systems.
- Remember that you will not be able to access the game from your PS3 anymore after the upgrade to PS4 has taken place!
Important: the upgrade option is currently scheduled to go live at approximately 1:00 AM Pacific on Friday, April 11th.
And you’re done! You’ll now be displayed with a summary and your promotion code to download the game from PlayStation Store.
- First of all, log into the Mog Station using your Square Enix account, visit the account services page, and select the service account that you want to upgrade.
- Once selected, you should already see a banner with the option to upgrade from PS3 to PS4. Click on it.
- You’ll now be presented with the details of the upgrade campaign. I know it’s a lot of text, but please read it carefully, as it contains a lot of information about the upgrade process. When you’re done reading, confirm that you agree to the terms and click “Next.”
- On this page you’ll be asked to confirm your upgrade. If you have multiple service accounts, please make absolutely sure that you’ve selected the correct service account you want to upgrade.
- If all is in order, click on “Upgrade.”
Step 2: Redeem Your Promotion Code
Please note: if you’ve participated in the second PS4 beta, this step is optional, as you already have the game client installed on your system and only need to update it. You still need to go through step 1, though!
And that’s it! You’ll be ready to go in no time.
- Boot up your PS4, log in to your PlayStation account, and go to PlayStation Store. Make absolutely sure that you have the correct PlayStation profile active before you enter the store! Promotion Codes can only be used a single time, so using it on the wrong account would leave you stranded.
- Select “Redeem Codes” from the option menu displayed at the bottom left of the screen and enter the promotion code.
- When you’ve done so and confirmed the regulations, you can start the download.
- If something goes wrong with the download, you can try to restart it using the “Library” option in the PlayStation Store menu.

PS4 Release and Collector's Edition Details
Since Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, the second MMO in the Final Fantasy series, was released on PC and PS3 , more than 1.5 million accounts have been registered, and filled more than 60 worlds with a living, breathing community. And since then, PS4 has been released, and millions of you have welcomed the new console into your homes. But admit it — you felt that something was missing, didn’t you?
Final Fantasy and PlayStation have been a dream team since the early days, and good friendships never die. So we’re happy to announce that Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will begin beta on February 22nd, and then launch on April 14th.
But that’s not all. What would Final Fantasy be without a sumptuous Collector’s Edition? If you want to know more, read on!
You will defend the realm of Eorzea against a smorgasbord of enemies — no, I’m not even kidding, you should be happy if something doesn’t constantly try to snap you in half or just save itself the trouble and swallow you whole to begin with. In a world like this, an adventurer needs any help he can find.
And instead of the standard version, which gets you the game and 30 days of game time, there’s also a unique Collector’s Edition, which will look great in your collection. It features art, music and movies you can proudly show off to your friends, but also offers you the support every professional adventurer needs in the form of in-game items!
The Collector’s Edition contains these physical items:
As well as some sweet, sweet in-game items:
- Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn exclusive box
- Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn artbook — The Art of Eorzea: A Realm Reimagined
- Final Fantasy XIV Seventh Umbral Era movie disc — The Waning of the Sixth Sun
- Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn soundtrack — The Sounds of Eorzea
- Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn art card set
- Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn themed security token
My personal favourite? The Fat Chocobo Mount! Ample, soft space to sit on, huggable, and even when you’re trapped in an icy chasm, you can be sure that he’ll find his way to your next meal — even if he has to peck himself through 50 yalms of pure ice, dangit! The true survivalist’s choice.
- Fat Chocobo Mount
- Coeurl Mount
- Behemoth Barding for your Chocobo Mount
- Wind-Up Moogle Minion
- Baby Behemoth Minion
- Helm of Light (increases your earned experience by 20% until level 10!)
So, what are you waiting for? The pre-orders start now. And if you’re still not convinced, keep your eyes peeled on this space — we’ve got more to share, soon!
