If you hated the first installment of Final Fantasy XIV, you’re probably aware that the reworked version Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is being released later this month on August 27. (Or you’ve heard about the character creation benchmark yesterday and you’re now stoked to try the game out).
If you’ve already owned an original copy of the game on the PC, you’ll be happy to know that you’ll be getting the game for free (woot). For the rest of us interested in trying the game out, pre-order deals of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is now 20% off again at everyone’s favorite digital retailer GMG. (The deal went away for a while due to GMG’s reward week.)
If a Standard Edition isn’t good enough for you, there’s also a Digital Deluxe edition which will get you additional in-game goodies such as the Helm of Light, Baby Behemoth Minion, the Coeurl Mount, and the Behemoth Barding for your Chocobo (mmm… horse armor-ish). Full details here.
Pre-order for the Standard and Digital Deluxe Edition will both receive additional pre-order incentives like early access, the Mog cap item, and a Cait Sith doll minion.
The 20% coupon GMG20-4B9NY-L4FEN will work for all region, reducing the price from $29.99, £19.99, and 24.99 € for the Standard Edition. For the Digital Deluxe Edition, it’ll be taking 20% off $49.99, £34.99, and 39.99 €.
