While players are not expected to hand-craft, ingredient by ingredient, the food they cook in Final Fantasy XIV, in the real world players will soon have the opportunity to bring even more of their in-game creations to the real world. Square Enix and Insight Editions have confirmed the upcoming release of The Ultimate Final Fantasy XIV Cookbook: Volume 2, scheduled for 21 October 2025. This second official volume delves deeper into the culinary landscape introduced through the game’s Shadowbringers and Endwalker expansions.
Spanning 192 pages, the cookbook continues to blend practical cooking instructions with detailed in-game lore and stylised photography. It aims to provide a seamless experience for home cooks seeking to replicate the cuisine of Eorzea and beyond, whether they are new to the kitchen or seasoned culinary enthusiasts.
Among the more than 70 recipes featured in this volume are dishes such as Alpine Breakfast, Tacos de Carne Asada, and the visually distinctive Pudding of Perseverance & Prominence. Each recipe includes step-by-step instructions paired with visuals that guide readers through the process of recreating these digital delicacies.
Pitched as both a culinary guide and a collector’s piece for fans of Final Fantasy XIV, this new volume looks to expand upon the original cookbook, offering an accessible way to connect the virtual and real-world pleasures of food.
