    Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker Benchmark Released

    This past Sunday, Square Enix released the benchmark for the upcoming Final Fantasy XIV expansion, Endwalker.

    The benchmark contains the character creator which allows you to create characters which can be used in the main game when the expansion launches on November 23rd including the new Male Viera race.

    The benchmark can be downloaded for free from here: https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/benchmark/ (Windows only)

    Square Enix also published the video of the benchmark which shows landmarks, characters, spells, and more which feature in the expansion.

    My result. This would be a couple of hundred points of the ‘Maximum’ tier of 15000+. I could probably improve this with a better hardware and optimisation but I am not going to worry about it.
