In the Realm Resplendent with Warriors of Light segment, Yoshi-P shared some original game statistics and survey results from players. Here are some of the amazing information we have gathered from it:
Over 30 Million Players worldwide have become Warriors of Light. A total of 159 hours of cutscenes. 4.917 Minutes of amazing Music. 16.096 tons of Materia melded in the past year, an amount equal to the world's total platinum reserves! 46.152 km of corks fired in-game from bottles of Realm Reborn Red in the past year, a distance surpassing the Earth's circumference!
54.350.656 Liters of concoctions imbibed in the past year, nearly more than the annual ketchup consumption in the US! 26% of players started the game with ARR, 13% with Heavensward, 14% with Stormblood, 34% with Shadowbringers, and 13% with Endwalker! Starbird, Fat Cat and Lesser Panda are the Warriors of Light's favorite minions! Company Chocobo, SDS Fenrir and Fatter Cat are the most beloved mounts. Limsa Lominsa, Gridania and Old Sharlayan are the preferred Home Points. The most Formidable Foes are Hades, The Endsinger and The Warrior of Light. Warriors of Light have also shared what Final Fantasy XIV means to them - a wonderful blend of adventure, family, friends, fun, love, escape, exploration, and so much more!
On top of that, you can also have a look at the amazing real-life minions belonging to Warriors all over the world:
After more than a decade, the adventures in Eorzea are far from over. Warriors of Light and Darkness are still needed, and Dawntrail is set to help us create new, incredible memories!

With the Benchmark now available, players have been busy testing their PCs, and some have already discovered an interesting new detail within the Benchmark!
Many players have gone over the Dawntrail Benchmark cutscenes, particularly the gear and weapons that can be equipped on the character featured in the cutscene.
In doing so, some have noticed that certain Viper weapons bear a resemblance to older weapons. For instance, as mentioned by Eksu Plosion on Twitter/X, different weapons for the Dreadwyrm and Omega sets can be seen in the Benchmark.
The pressing question is: does this mean we will be able to obtain weapons from old ultimate fights or other older raids for the new Jobs?
Yoshi-P did mention a desire to re-evaluate the rewards from various content, suggesting this could be a possibility. It would be a welcome addition to acquire new job weapons, even if it is just for the purpose of using them as weapon glams, as some of them look really nice.
It is of course possible that these are merely new leveling weapons, but for now, the question remains unanswered! As the community speculates, only time will reveal the true nature of these newly found details.

April 14th marks the day you can join fellow adventurers in preparing for the next chapter of FF14. Get the Dawntrail Benchmark software and see if your rig is up to the challenge!
During the 14-hour stream and Live Letter, Yoshi-P announced the official benchmark times and dates. So let's go over everything you need to know about it!
The official Benchmark software will be released on April 14th at 12 am PT / 3 am ET.
By using the Benchmark software, you will have the opportunity to test your computer and ensure it can run the game with its new and updated graphics.
The Dawntrail Benchmark will feature the new graphical updates and a character creation tool that includes female Hrothgar! You will be able to save the appearance of your female Hrothgar and use it directly when you switch your race at launch.
Keep in mind, though, that the Benchmark is a special piece of software that you will need to download; it is not a trial version and will not allow you to play Final Fantasy XIV. It will simply run models, effects, and more to test your computer, informing you if your PC can handle the new graphics and the settings at which you can play Dawntrail.
You can check out the Benchmark trailer below.
The software can be downloaded on the official website here: Dawntrail Benchmark
Once you have access to the Benchmark, follow these instructions:
Download the ZIP file. Uncompress the ZIP file. Execute the EXE file. Select the language to display, read through the Software License Agreement, and use the software. Start the Benchmark. If your PC cannot fulfill the system requirements to run it, the program will automatically close. This means you will need to update your PC before the launch if you want to play Dawntrail. After accepting the terms of the Software License Agreement, a launcher window for the benchmark will appear. Here, you can adjust various settings for the cutscenes used to measure system performance Change the graphics settings to the level at which you would like to benchmark your system. Start cutscene playback and measure your system's performance. When the cutscenes end, the launcher will reappear and display your benchmark results.
After testing, feel free to share your Benchmark scores on social media! We encourage you to participate in the test, as it is a great way to determine whether your computer can handle the new graphics and how well it performs.
