Final Fantasy XIV: Evercold pre-orders: editions, bonuses and early access

Since Wednesday, November 4, 2026, you can pre-order Final Fantasy XIV: Evercold, the sixth expansion for Square Enix's MMO. It launches on Tuesday, February 23, 2027, with early access from Friday, February 19 at 9am GMT for players who pre-order. Originally due in January, it was pushed back a month in late October.

Platforms

Evercold is coming to PC (Windows, plus Steam for Steam accounts), Mac, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S and Switch 2. As with every expansion, a subscription is required to play.

The four editions

Standard Edition ($44.99 in the US): the expansion. Registering it also grants access to the two previous ones, Endwalker and Dawntrail.
Digital Collector's Edition ($64.99): the expansion plus three in-game items, the Valhallar Odin mount, the Entreat Crystal emote and the Crystal Skyltborg weapon for the new Bastion job.
Collector's Box ($255): physical goods only, no game: a special art box, a Reaper figure, an Ethos metal keychain, a Köttr mini plush and a Tapestry of the Fourth.
Collector's Bundle ($319.99): the Collector's Box and the Digital Collector's Edition together, sold only on the Square Enix Store and only for Windows or Mac. On PlayStation, Xbox, Switch 2 or Steam, you need to buy the Collector's Box and the Digital Collector's Edition separately.

Digital Collector's Edition items arrive by moogle letter once early access begins. Prices above come from Square Enix's North American store; your platform's store shows local pricing.
