New year, new gear! As we turn the corner into 2023, Final Fantasy XIV is offering a brand-new seasonal event for us to enjoy. Heavensturn returns to Eorzea once again, as we celebrate the Year of the Rabbit. No, not the Loporrits!
Over on The Lodestone, the official FFXIV site, this year’s event is described as follows:
All the realm is abrim with excitement in anticipation of the new year, and indeed, the sounds of merriment can be heard nowhere more strongly than in the streets of Limsa Lominsa, where delegates from the Far East have arrived in hopes of sharing their festive traditions. The usagi bugyo would have your aid in ensuring the celebration of Heavensturn is a success, and has prepared a handsome reward should you be willing to offer it.
