Spider-Man's Tom Holland, Hannibal Buress Gear Up For Shadowbringers in Final Fantasy XIV Ad

posted on by Kim Morrissy

Spider-Man actor Tom Holland is hyped about the "Shadowbringers" expansion for Final Fantasy XIV. In an ad posted on the Final Fantasy XIV YouTube channel on Monday, Holland is shown training his body to become a Warrior of Darkness. Comedian and fellow Spider-Man: Homecoming actor Hannibal Buress is there to reveal the shocking truth: you don't need to swing a giant sword to play the game.

The expansion will launch on July 2. The expansion will feature the new "Gunbreaker" and "Dancer" jobs; the new "Viera" and "Hrothgar" races; the new areas "Il Mheg," "The Rak'tika Greatwood," and "Lakeland;" and the new towns "The Crystarium" and "Eulmore," among other updates.

A collector's edition of the expansion will include an art box, a figure, an art book, a logo sticker, playing cards, and three in-game items. Those who pre-order the expansion will receive two in-game items and early access to play the expansion starting on June 28.

Square Enix released Final Fantasy XIV Online for personal computers in September 2010. After criticism from fans, the company revealed an updated version of the game titled Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn that added a new world and story. Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn launched on Windows PC and PS3 in August 2013, and then on PS4 in April 2014. The game's companion app for iOS and Android launched in August.

Square Enix released the first expansion for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, titled Heavensward, in June 2015. The second expansion, Stormblood, launched in June 2017. The game has surpassed 16 million registered users worldwide.
