The Final Fantasy XIV Online Complete Bundle has received a 60% price cut thanks to the Steam Summer Sale. Every year, the Steam Summer Sale ushers in a plethora of deals to let budget-conscious players purchase some iconic games.

The Final Fantasy XIV Online Complete Bundle consists of the Final Fantasy XIV Starter Edition, as well as the Shadowbringers expansion. The package includes the base game of Final Fantasy XIV Online,as well as the first two DLCs, A Realm Reborn and Heavensward. This bundle also includes a 30-day subscription-free period once you create an account.

This bundle costs about $60 at full price, but this deal brings it down to about $24. If you by chance already have the base game or the Starter Edition, the Shadowbringers DLC is also currently 60% off at $16.

Final Fantasy XIV Online is a critically acclaimed MMORPG that has taken the internet by storm. With this bundle, you will be fully equipped to jump in and play the game in its entirety. However, if you are still on the fence about this game, Final Fantasy XIV allows you to play the game for free up to level 60, which includes the base game as well as the critically acclaimed Heavensward expansion with no time restriction (perhaps you’re familiar with the meme the trial has spawned). If the free trial gets its hooks into you, then you can purchase the bundle in order to be up to date with the full retail version of Final Fantasy XIV Online.

Like the best RPGs, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth gets sidequests right
The mayor of Under Junon in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

Among its many highlights, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth makes simple sidequests a lot more engaging than I had expected. Take an early-game sidequest called When Words Won’t Do. On a surface level, it’s a simple escort mission where players must get a dog from Under Junon to Crow’s Nest unscathed. I did not initially have high hopes for this sidequest due to the poor reputation of escort missions; thankfully, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth defied that fate. To make this optional content more worthwhile, Square Enix gave it a strong narrative backbone.

When Words Won’t Do is actually a story about parents struggling to let go of their kids. Under Junon’s mayor sends players on this quest to help her son and unborn grandchild, and Barrett wonders if he’ll ever be able to let Marlene go during the mission. That’s thematically fitting for an escort mission where you can’t keep something out of your sight.
