Final Fantasy XIV on subscription: Costs and features at a glance

Final Fantasy XIV is playable both for free via Free2Play and for a fee via subscription. There were a lot of changes to the available content in August 2020. Read what the costs are for the subscription.

Free choice: Online players of Final Fantasy XIV do not necessarily have to subscribe.

With update 5.3, which was released on August 11, numerous contents (such as A Realm Reborn as well as the first expansion Heavensward) were made available for free players.

Final Fantasy XIV: Subscription or not?

At the same time, of course, there are still restrictions - the payment model must, after all, bring benefits to subscribers.

• This includes the fact that you cannot join a guild or PVP team without a subscription.
• Selling on the market board is also not possible.
• You also have to do without the whisper function and friend requests.
• The level limit is 60. The in-game currency Gil is limited to 300,000.
• It is also important: Accounts that have already played with subscription, can subsequently no longer play F2P.

With the subscription, all these limitations logically do not apply. The subscription costs 12.99 euros for 30 days of play, 90 days are available for 11.99 euros per month and at 180 days, the price is reduced to 10.99 euros per month. So if you're sure you want to play Final Fantasy XIV online for longer,
