Final Fantasy XIV fans got a special look at the upcoming dungeons for Dawntrail at the FFXIV Fan Festival 2023 in London, as Square Enix revealed a half dozen incredible screenshots and concept art.
Among the revealed dungeons were a riverboat cruise, a strange and alien mountain, a dive into a mezo-American inspired dungeon, and a mysterious technological-advanced area.
The riverboat dungeon cruise seems to be inspired by the mighty Amazon river, with the first portion taking place on a perilous pontoon boat. It then moves onto an underground area, with light piercing through holes in the stone ceiling.

The second dungeon was a high mountain peak capped with snow, but with strange tendrils emerging from the rock. Underneath the mountain, mysterious purple energy seems to pulsate.

The next two dungeons we only saw a single piece of concept art, but they revealed a lot. One was an expansive underground area, and the next was a strange, high-tech area with a giant tank of strange blue material. It’s speculated that this is related to Ceruleum.

It’s speculated that this more technologically advanced dungeon is related to Ceruleum.

These screenshots have given fans the first look at the battle content for FFXIV: Dawntrail, but at the moment, everything beyond basic details is speculation. However, what’s most interesting is the variety. Naoki “Yoshi-P” Yoshida teased fans at the London Keynote suggesting that the long-awaited vacation for the Warrior of Light may be a little more complicated than initially thought.
