Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker Expansion Revealed, Coming Fall 2021 – Everything We Know

During the Final Fantasy XIV announcement showcase, the next expansion for the MMORPG was revealed through a teaser trailer--it's called Endwalker and it's set to launch in Fall 2021. You can watch the trailer from the livestream below (be aware that there may be spoilers in the trailer).
