You will need to register a pre-order bonus code to participate in early access. Please be sure to redeem your code to prepare for the adventures ahead!

* Users who pre-ordered the PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, or Xbox Series X|S versions will not need to register a separate code as they are automatically registered for early access and the full version upon purchasing the expansion.

What is Early Access?

Early access is one of the benefits of pre-ordering FINAL FANTASY XIV: Dawntrail. You will be able to play the full version of Dawntrail as early as Friday, June 28, 2024 at around 2:00 a.m. (PDT) before its official release on Tuesday, July 2, 2024.

Beginning of Early Access

Friday, June 28, 2024 at 2:00 a.m. (PDT)

Early Access Period

Early access will end on Friday, July 5, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. with the region of your Square Enix account determining the time zone. North American accounts will adhere to (PDT), European accounts will adhere to (GMT), and Japanese accounts will adhere to (JST). Users on Windows, Mac, or Steam will need to register the full Dawntrail registration code before this time to continue playing after the early access period.

Square Enix Store Customers

Starting Monday, June 24, we will begin distributing Dawntrail registration codes via email to customers who purchased Dawntrail (standard or digital Collector's Edition) from the Square Enix Store. Code distribution will be performed sequentially, so it might take a bit of time until you receive your code. However, we are beginning the process early to ensure that customers receive their codes ahead of the official launch of Dawntrail.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The ability to enter a Dawntrail registration code (using the "Additional Expansions" option) will not be available on the Mog Station until the game officially launches following early access on Tuesday, July 2. Attempting to register the code in other areas of the Mog Station before release will simply result in an "invalid code" error being displayed.

Please Be Mindful about Spoilers

During the early access period, there will be no restrictions on what content you can discuss, post, or stream while following the Material Usage License Agreement. However, we ask that early access users please be considerate and do their best to avoid posting spoiler-related content as there are those players who may start at the official launch or play at their own pace.
