    The last of Final Fantasy XI's add-on scenarios is coming out in just about a week, but that's not all that's coming with it. Players who have purchased all three of the mini-expansions (A Crystalline Prophecy, A Moogle Kupo d'Etat, and A Shantotto Ascension, all of which have small flash sites) will receive a special in-game item following the next version update. The fact that it's a cape may not sound like much, but veteran players would be rather interested in the item's special enchantment: it allows you to teleport. Players who haven't experienced Final Fantasy XI might not realize just how difficult and frequently dangerous transport through the game can be. Most leveling is done by working your way to a dangerous location, surrounded by monsters that can easily slaughter a lone player. The Nexus Cape reward will transport the user instantly to the party leader's location, thereby enabling easy movement from one spot of relative safety to another. It's only usable once per day, but it's a nice added bonus for those who've grabbed all of the additional scenarios. If you're holding out for the Ultimate Collection due on the tenth, don't despair -- as it contains all three add-ons as well, players with the collection will also receive the Nexus Cape. More details on its mechanics are available on the official announcement.

  • Final Fantasy XI add-on pack trailer features moogles, monsters, and mayhem

    Square-Enix has released the trailer for their next add-on pack for Final Fantasy XI, A Moogle Kupo d'Etat, and it's filled with moogle mayhem.A Moogle Kupo d'Etat is focused on the story of a beat up old mog house, a moogle searching for love, and a curse. What these three things have in common we haven't the faintest, but our questions will be most certainly answered with the release of the add-on pack on July 20th, the same day as the July version update for FFXI.Of note in the trailer, in addition to lots of moogles, is the appearance of Professor Shantotto, the high standing Windurstian black mage. While this normally wouldn't mean anything special, her appearance in this add-on means that this story might somehow tie in with the next expansion pack, A Shantotto Ascension, which obviously focuses on her as a main character. Will the two packs be strung together? Decide for yourself, as we have the trailer available for your viewing after the break!
