With Halloween just around the corner, online games have begun offering their annual seasonal festivities around it. For Final Fantasy XIV, the Continental Circus is set to return to Eorzea for new All Saints’ Wake festivities – in an event known as “All Saints’ Wake: All the Twelveswood Trembles at the Howl of the Moon”. Located in the woods of Old Gridania from now until November 1st, players will be able to meet a traveler from a distant land, and find out why he has ventured such a long way.
The theme of this years’ festivities is “Werewolves”, with players also able to unlock a special event outfit based on it rather early on. For those who do not have a Miqo’te character but like the idea of having animal ears, the new headwear is one of your nicest options in my opinion. You can see a sample of my character wearing the full werewolf outfit below:
In addition to this questline, players will be able to access a 4-player instance where they can take on a number of challenges within a haunted mansion to obtain tokens, which can be exchanged for Halloween-themed furniture. It is rather simple in nature, but I spent more time than expected on it yesterday evening….
