Ahead of today’s Final Fantasy 14 Letter from the Producer Live, Square Enix shared details on their newest mount campaign in Japan. Beginning December 15, players on Final Fantasy 14’s Japanese data center can visit any Lawson’s location to pick up an adorable game branded set of chocolate wafers that include in-game item codes for the Choco Korpokkur mount.
In the preview, Square Enix shared two designs for the chocolate wafers, dubbed Manchocos, featuring some of Final Fantasy 14’s iconic cast. It sounds like this won’t be a buy one and done kind of deal, as the official website mentions collecting stamps in exchange for purchases to receive the in-game item code. Those finer details don’t seem to be quite ironed out yet, but the event is only weeks away so we should have a clearer picture soon.
The update from Square Enix ends with a promise that the team is planning more campaigns like this in the future, so perhaps we’ll continue to see more Final Fantasy 14 rewards for our shopping habits elsewhere. Regardless, social media is abuzz with international players hoping for campaigns like this extending their reach outside of Japan. Perhaps North American and European warriors of light won’t get the adorable snacks, but our fingers are crossed that the pudgy chocolate puff mount finds its way to every data center.
