In the meantime, Yoshida also confirmed that a new "Final Fantasy XIV" patch was coming for the PS4 Pro version. It has been revealed that the game would make use of the extra horsepower to boost gaming performance on the PS4 Pro.

Crimson Clad Samurais Are Coming To "Final Fantasy 14"

Meanwhile, the "Final Fantasy XIV" developers also confirmed that the "Stormblood" expansion would release for PS3. However, PS4 and PC users may get it ahead on June 20.
