FF14 and FF15 Collaboration Event Details

The collaboration debuted back in 2019 and again in 2021. Final Fantasy XIV fans once again have the opportunity to fight alongside Noctis from Final Fantasy XV through three quests, ending in a battle against Garuda. It’s worth doing for the Noctis interactions, but the highlight is the Regalia Type-G mount.

Event Duration

The FFXIV and FFXV collaboration event, A Nocturne for Heroes, will go live on February 28, 2024, at 10:00 AM PST, and will run until March 13, 2024, at 7:59 AM PDT. This means that you will have a two-week period to complete the event.
