In addition, players will have a new dungeon to complete in The Lunar Subterrane. This culminates in a brand new trial known as The Abyssal Fracture, which comes with an Extreme version as well.

Other content exists out of the main story, including the following:

• Myths of the Realm Part 3 Thaleia: Final Alliance Raid in the Endwalker series.
• Aloalo Island: New variant and criterion dungeons
• The Singularity Reactor (Unreal): New Unreal trial for Thordan
• Duty for the final three Stormblood dungeons
• Stormblood s the free trial version of the game at no additional cost

• New Island Sanctuary content

Part 2 in January 2024 will include more MSQ, Tataru’s Grand Endeavor, Somehow Further Hildibrand Adventures, and more.
