Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn beta starts this month
The beta for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will go live week after next.
The first phase will take place in the areas around Gridania with limited quests from the main storyline and its side-quests. An instanced dungeon will also be available, and the tester will also include Full Active Time Events which appear at random.
Players can join just by being near the event's epicenter and they will also be able to try out the new Guildhest system.
You can apply for the beta through these links: North America, Europe, France, Germany, or Japan.
The beta goes live on February 25.
