Of all the new stories added in Final Fantasy 14: Shadowbringers, Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr was one of the best. Technically a sidequest, Save the Queen saw players help the Bozjan Resistance in their fight against the IVth Imperial Legion to liberate the land of Bozja. Doing so rewarded players with a multi-part story arc and a Resistance weapon, one of the new upgradeable arms added in Shadowbringers.
Save the Queen’s story ended with a few loose ends, and fans were expecting the plotline to continue into another Final Fantasy 14 expansion. Unfortunately, that’s not going to happen, according to writer Yasumi Matsuno.
When asked by a fan on Twitter if the story will continue in a future expansion, Matsuno replied, “Unfortunately, this side story is over,” adding he’ll see fans “in another game.” In another tweet, Matsuno explained that the Save the Queen sidequest wasn’t particularly well received in Japan, and that plans to continue working on Ivalice-related stories in Final Fantasy 14 had “disappeared.”
Bozja was eventually liberated in Save the Queen, so it seems like a good jumping-off point.
Want a fat black Chocobo mount in Final Fantasy 14? Of course you do, and Twitch is giving away this hot item as part of a collaboration. From now until August 24, players can gift subscriptions for certain Final Fantasy 14 content creators and receive both the Deluxe Heavenscrackers and the Fat Black Chocobo mount.
Gifting subs is probably a lot easier than eating a whole table of fried chicken by yourself.
