The next minor patch for Final Fantasy XIV will drop next week on Tuesday, March 31.
Dragon Age Inquisition Patch Jaws Of Hakkon Coming To PC And Xbox One Only
Patch 2.55, also known as Before the Fall Part 2, will not add any major new content, however, it will bring closure to a few storylines as well as few tweaks to the recently released Gold Saucer casino.
Patch 2.55 will also help lay the groundwork for the game's first expansion, Heavensward, due out this June. A new questline, Before the Dawn, will need to be completed before players can gain access to Heavensward's new central city quest hub, Ishgard. This will form the last part of the 7th Astral Era main quest scenario that has been slowly unveiled across multiple patches in the past year.

- The World of Darkness weekly gear limit will be removed
- The amount of MGP you receive in the Gold Saucer will be adjusted
- Adjustments will also be made to the Triple Triad tournaments
- Considering making balance adjustments to Triple Triad NPCs since we've received lots of feedback that certain NPCs can be a bit too strong
