Final Fantasy XIV Patch 7.01 Details – Everything Set To Be Added in FFXIV 7.01

Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail released on July 2, after half a week in early access, but already the first Patch and update is on the horizon with FFXIV 7.01. 

The first update to Dawntrail is set to release on July 16, and will add a decent amount of new features to the game.

FFXIV 7.01 Patch Additions

Here’s all the additions being made to Final Fantasy 14 in patch 7.01:

The Arcadion Raid Series

7.1

The Arcadion Raid Series, which was hinted in the closing cutscenes of Dawntrail’s Main Scenario Quests, will be added in 7.01. This will be the “normal” difficulty, with the (Savage) variants of these raids being added in 7.05 on July 30. We don’t know at all what these Raids will consist of, but we do know they’ll feature denizens of Solution 9 battling with their enhanced Beast Souls in gladiatorial combat.

Gear

Beyond just the Arcadion Raid Series, we’ll also receive gear for completing these raids. Hopefully these will be more futuristic gear sets to augment out growing sci-fi wardrobe!

Post-Game Story

There’s no MSQ being added in FFXIV 7.01, but some story relating to the Dawntrail setting will be included in The Arcadian raids, as we look into the fate of Solution Nine post the reign of Queen Sphene.

Job Adjustments 

There’s also some job adjustments coming to Final Fantasy XIV. These include some simplification to the Viper, and some tweaks to keep Tanks relevant, and Healers from declaring another strike.

Housing Demolition

Automatic Housing Demolition will also restart on July 16, after being shut off for over two and a half weeks due to the congestion around the release of Dawntrail. After July 16, the countdown to auto demolition on personal and Free Company housing will start to tick again!

FFXIV 7.05 and beyond?

If you’re wondering where Alliance Raids, MSQ, and other features are, then you’ll be waiting a while. Make sure you check our Dawntrail Patch Schedule to stay up to date with all the upcoming updates and events that are going to hit FFXIV over the next few months.

When will we see veastmaster!!!!

Hellsage

Limited jobs usually get updated in the x.4 patch cycle, so Beastmaster will probably drop in either 7.4 or 7.45.

If they keep to the roughly 20-week patch cadence they had in Endwalker, expect Beastmaster to land sometime in early (January-March) 2026.
