Final Fantasy XIV Suffers DDoS Outage As Devs Work On A Fix

Square Enix's hit MMO is currently offline for some players

Players are currently having a tough time logging into Final Fantasy XIV after the MMORPG was hit with DDoS attacks on May 6. Square Enix has acknowledged the issue but hasn’t yet updated fans on when the outages will be fixed. “We are currently experiencing technical difficulties due to a DDoS attack. Players may experience the following issues as a result,” the publisher wrote in an update on FFXIV’s website. “We are investigating the attack and taking countermeasures.

One player jokingly blamed the DDoS attack for possibly the strongest Cosmo Arrow ever witnessed in an Omega Protocol raid. The FFXIV service outage comes as Square Enix prepares to release its next expansion, Dawntrail, on July 2, with early access beginning on June 28. The next chapter in the ongoing saga takes players to the new tropical social hub of Tuliyollal, adds two more job classes, and raises the level cap to 100. Players also hope the update will bring some major changes to healers.
