Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn closed beta phase 2 now underway

The second phase of the closed beta testing for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is now underway on the PC, Square Enix has announced.

Running across the weekends throughout April, those lucky enough to get into this early beta phase will be able to explore the rich forest environments of the city state of Gridania, with new features such as PC gamepad support and personal Chocobo mounts, as well as brand new Full Active Time Events.

There’s lots more to come from the beta testing phases, with the PS3 version and a huge amount of new content and environments to explore arriving with beta phase 3 later this summer.
