BODY: For Final Fantasy XIV players who like their expansions with a shelf-worthy centerpiece, Square Enix has just given the collectors among us something to save up for.
On July 25, the company unveiled the full contents of the Collector's Edition for Final Fantasy XIV: Silver Wanderer (白銀のワンダラー), the MMORPG's next major expansion. The star of the box is a high-quality figurine of the Reaper, the scythe-wielding job introduced in Endwalker and a fan favorite ever since—a fitting pick given the expansion's frosty, wanderer-themed identity.
Beyond the figurine, the physical package rounds out the usual premium spread: a cloth tapestry, an art-focused set of accessories, and additional keepsakes designed to sit alongside the figure as a matched collection. It's the kind of curated bundle that has become a signature of FFXIV's expansion launches, aimed squarely at long-term subscribers who treat each new chapter as an event.
The set also carries the expected digital rewards—three in-game bonuses that fold into your account, the traditional way Square Enix sweetens these editions for players who care more about mounts and minions than mantelpiece decor. Silver Wanderer is launching across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC, keeping the game's sprawling multi-platform reach intact, including its newly added Switch 2 home.
The insider take
From Tokyo, the timing tells its own story: these reveals are landing in a steady drip out of Fan Festival, Square Enix's road-show hype machine, and the Collector's Edition is always the emotional anchor of that campaign. Japanese fans have watched the FFXIV figurine line grow into a genuine collector's market—resale prices on past job figures have climbed well beyond retail—so a Reaper piece will move fast. Choosing Reaper over a brand-new job also signals confidence that the community's affection for Endwalker's classes hasn't cooled, a quietly reassuring note ahead of launch.
