TGS 2005: Final Fantasy XI expands again
Official Web site confirms Treasures of Aht Urhgan expansion, new screens and sneak peek soon to follow.
The official Final Fantasy XI Web site has been updated with word about a new expansion pack for Square Enix's massively multiplayer online role-playing game. According to a news posting on the page, images of Final Fantasy XI: Treasures of Aht Urhgan have been released to the public at the Tokyo Game Show. The site also promises to have a "sneak peek" of the new content soon.
Treasures of Aht Urhgan will be the third expansion for the game following Rise of the Zilart and Chains of Promathia. It's unclear at the moment which platforms Treasures of Aht Urhgan is expected to be on and when, but considering that cross-platform versions of Final Fantasy XI are compatible with the same servers, a simultaneous release is likely. Such was the case with the game's most recent expansion, Chains of Promathia.
As for the upcoming Xbox 360 version, it seems likely to ship with the most current content at the time of its release, as was the case with the PlayStation 2 version of the game, which included the first Final Fantasy XI PC expansion, Rise of the Zilart. GameSpot will have more on Treasures of Aht Urhgan as details become available.
