THE THURSDAY LETTER / ISSUE 03

Why Final Fantasy XIV destroyed its first world

How did Square Enix rebuild Final Fantasy XIV while people were still playing it?
Read how Yoshida’s team kept the old game running, moved a red moon closer with each update and turned the shutdown into Eorzea’s destruction.

ALSO IN ISSUE #3

Nintendo needed a game for 2,000 unsold arcade machines. Eidetic was making a spy thriller about kidnapped scientists and a time machine. Find out how those projects became Donkey Kong and Syphon Filter in Issue 03.

Every Thursday, I share game art and the stories behind our favourite games.
