Some info and screenshots here, in japanese obviously. Someone on another forum translated the name as Crusaders of Altana.

Playonline.com has a link to the official website complete with a video. :eek:

for the lazy


HOLY SHIT winter 07!? thats like soon and stuff. Also did anyone else get goosebumps watching that trailer? or am I just really nerdy :(

[Zumi]

FFXI Wings of the Goddess. Apparently you go back in time and visit some of the old areas, before they were destroyed. Wonder if its going to be any good.

[Lefiel]

so much for toau being the last xpac.

[Rayj]

So you get to refight the war with the shadowlord and destroyed windurst?

looks iffy to me. I hope atleast the story is good and rocks the shit out of COP. That would get people playing again.

[Bovein]

Looks kinda cool :Q

[Carmi]

Cool :)

[Tyler]

im skeptical

[Halon50]

So the new expansion focuses on Windurst, the Beastmen strongholds (or rather, what used to be there before the Beastmen took over), and the areas around Jeuno before Jeuno was built?

I WANT!

[Immortaldonut]

I do have to say that that trailer is pretty badass... but we shall see how this expansion turns out.

[Cyrus]

What happened to the far east expansion? PHAIL

[Yummy]

we will experience the time when DRGs were ultimate and finally find out why they fell!

[Kyuuketsuki]

Also announced was Final Fantasy Dissidia! What appears to be a Super Smash Brothers style fighting game which is supposed to at least include Garland, Sephirioth, Zidane, Kuja, and 'Fighter'. I think I may have seen Kain one article, not sure. Only seen evidence of it coming out on PSP.

TP nerf.

[Oronachinagi]

I speculate we have to go back in time, make sure Thrall escapes Durnholde... and make sure Medivh opens the Dark Portal...

Wait... wrong game... :erm:

Look interesting though... I need more of a reason to come back though...

[Lefiel]

TP nerf.
yea pretty much.

[Tyler]

I don't think it will be very good, it hasnt been very long since the last xpac, so they havnt had much time to work on it (at least not as much as the last xpac, and the last one wasnt even that great in terms of storyline)

[Zumi]

Actually its been awhile since ToAU has been out.

Release dates
Base FFXI - May 16, 2002
Zilart - April 17, 2003
CoP - September 21, 2004
ToAU - April 18, 2006
Wings of the Goddess - December 2007

Time between expansions
Base FFXI to Zilart = 11 months
Zilart to CoP = 17 months
CoP to ToAU = 19 months
ToAU to WotG = 19 months

[Vivec]

Yeah, ToAU has been out a while, but it feels far from complete. Then again, CoP kinda completed Zilart in a sense, maybe this expansion will have the same effect and complete Aht Urgan.

I'm more hyped for this expansion because SE has proven they learned from a lot of mistakes... Hopefully it has a huge focus on end game.

Lol, that's what I was thinking.

[Scytale]

As long as I can go back, kick Baby fafnir in the nuts, and then take everyones AF and gear in the past before they can get it in the "present!"

or I'll just meet my mom and do the naughty, can I be my own father?!

This made me think of something I'd want to change in the past to prevent something bad relating to the game. It then made me sad.

This expansion will now be known as :'(
