A look at Final Fantasy XIV's new raid, Alexander

Final Fantasy XIV’s next bit of raid content is drawing near, with the first stage of Alexander pushed two weeks after the launch of Heavensward to give players enough time to enjoy the story and level their characters appropriately.

Now, Square Enix is ready to show us what the game’s next high-end raid will be like – with the normal mode expected to release some time this week, allowing players to enjoy the story integrated more into the main scenario:

Since the Sharlayan exodus, a structure has stood steady against the flow of the Thaliak River. Now, the Illuminati have summoned a primal around this rusting ruin─a terrible colossus of steam and metal. Steel screamed against steel when it rose from the waters, and it drank deep of the land’s aether before grinding again to a halt.

The voices of Idyllshire cry out, asking for aid ere their homes are crushed under the weight of iron. You must lead a band of valiant adventurers into the machina and discover how to destroy the core─lest the giant screeches again to life, and bleeds all the realm dry.
