You can find the trailer for patch 6.2 here:
The island paradise
What awaits me here? The island is one of the most anticipated content of the patch and is free for you to explore. After a short introductory quest, you can also gather materials, place buildings, grow vegetables, and capture and breed animals. It’s slow, relaxed content that everyone can do at their own pace.
Continuation of the main story
What can I expect? After completing the grand Hydaelyn and Zodiark story arc, the warriors of light seek new adventures as ordinary travelers. These lead us to the thirteenth splinter world, completely engulfed by darkness to find the lost sister of the dragon Vrtra.
The new dungeon “The Black Court of Troy” and the new secret trial are unlocked as the story progresses. Just follow the quests and you won’t miss them.
Pandaemonium Abyssos
What awaits me here? The Pandaemonium Raid enters the second round. Players, along with Themis and Erichthonios, will delve deeper into the prison to find out what was driving the facility’s staff insane. You can expect 4 new fights where you can get barter items for new armor.
The epic version of the raid will go online a week later this time, on August 30th. To unlock it, you must first have completed normal mode and its quests. Then you can find the quest for it in Labyrinthos (X:8.4 Y:27.4) from NPC Nemjiji.
The necessary item levels for the battles are as follows:
Tatarus Prosperity Manufactory
What awaits me here? Tataru’s quests continue and she is looking for new business partners to build her trading empire. In the small side storyline, you visit old acquaintances you know from previous addons, such as the air pirates you stormed the Nothing Ark with.
New dream exam
What can I expect? The old Dream Trial Ultima will be replaced in patch 6.2 with the fight against Sephirot. Each week you can receive special tickets that you can exchange for cosmetic items.
If you haven’t unlocked the Trials of Dreams yet, you can find them here:
