What mount will you strive to obtain?

As you can see, Final Fantasy XIV has a metric ton of mounts for you to ride. I plan to grab the Landerwaffe mount because it is an epic-looking robot dragon that transforms into a jet straight whenever it flies. This is but one of many features that have made Final Fantasy XIV one of the best multiplayer games on PC, and future updates and expansions will continue to expand upon them.

Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail is now available to purchase on PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 as it was released on July 2, 2024.
