One of the upcoming additions to Final Fantasy XIV to immediately leap out at us during Square Enix's Endwalker showcase was Island Sanctuary. Put it down to self-isolating amid a pandemic, but the idea of casually tending to our crops and chocobos sounds quite idyllic. The upcoming mod flips the MMORPG into a solo experience where you "live off the land, raise animals, and cultivate the earth, all while soaking in the sights of this beautiful paradise".
We recently got the chance to speak to FFXIV director Naoki Yoshida and immediately pressed for more details about Island Sanctuary's gameplay and what it involves. There's not a vast amount he can give away as it's still early doors. Still, Yoshida is keen to stress that it's entirely different from the Ishgardian Restoration, which tasks players with helping restore an old town to its former glory after it has been ravaged by war.
"Since this is still under development, I'm unable to provide many details," he explains. "But, this is not something like the Ishgardian Restoration where we expect players to combine their efforts and instead we're aiming for something that allows players to casually play through on a solo basis at their own pace.
