At the Final Fantasy XIV Fan Festival 2014 in Tokyo, Square Enix revealed some of the new content for the MMOs expansion, Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward. New reveals include: a new race, two new jobs, and a high-end raid.

When Heavensward was original announced back in October, we were only given a rather small degree of information. We learned that the game would have a new race, jobs, primals, raids, airship, flying mounts and more, but while we told about these all we got to see was the expansion’s first new job, Dark Knight, two primals, and flying mounts.

So let’s move onto what we learned yesterday.
