Final Fantasy XIV's Evercold Gets February 23 Date, Crossbow-Wielding Zephyr Revealed

Square Enix has set February 23, 2027, as the launch date for Evercold, the next expansion for Final Fantasy XIV. Pre-orders are scheduled to open next week.

The expansion's second new job is zephyr, a physical ranged DPS class. Zephyr fights with a crossbow and is backed up by a bird, a combination that makes it a damage dealer built around attacking from range rather than a tank or healer.

Zephyr is the second new job confirmed for Evercold, so the expansion's class lineup is being revealed one piece at a time. Players planning to pick up the expansion will want to watch for pre-order details when they go live next week.
