Queen's Domain is a modern-retro action RPG inspired by FromSoftware's King's Field, developed by the creators of Armored Core. The game features brutal combat and exploration in a PS1-inspired universe, where players seek a missing father on an isle with a stirring sleeping Queen. Players primarily use a wooden club against various foes, including insects and skeletons, while upgrading a Holy Sword for limited aerial maneuvering. A demo is available, offering an hour of gameplay that includes area exploration and a boss fight. The full game is expected to release in the first half of 2026.
The FF14 7.4 update, announced by game director Naoki Yoshida and community producer Toshio Murouchi, will be released on December 16. It will include a new raid tier, updates to Occult Crescent, Cosmic Exploration, duty support, and the return of Hildibrand, along with a new Variant Dungeon. Patch 7.38 will launch on November 11, removing the weekly limit on savage rewards and allowing players to exchange certain coins for Evercharged Ester. The new main scenario quest will introduce a plot line transition, and the dungeon 'Mistwake' will be inspired by Final Fantasy IX. Occult Crescent will feature three new phantom jobs and upgraded phantom weapons. The Cosmic Exploration segment will introduce a new appraisal system, while the Variant Dungeon 'The Merchant's Tale' will allow for exploration with one to four players. An Advanced Variant Dungeon will enable players to tackle bosses in any order, and the Criterion Dungeon will present a challenging trial. Quality of life improvements will include new UI color schemes and a revamped glamour system, allowing unrestricted gear customization for glamour, excluding weapons.
