Stepping back into the sprawling online fantasy world of Eorzea, players take on the role of adventurers helping to rebuild civilization half a decade after a devastating conflict against the Garlean Empire brought forth the seventh Umbral Era. Serving simultaneously as a comprehensive remake and a continuation of the original MMORPG release, A Realm Reborn completely reconstructs every zone while preserving foundational elements like familiar locations, native species, and action-oriented combat systems.
Character creation opens up new possibilities by letting players select a male Miqo'te or a female Roegadyn—options previously unavailable—alongside the addition of the Arcanist class and specialized jobs like the Summoner and Scholar. Rather than choosing any starting location freely, your initial City State is tied directly to your chosen class, because each individual guild bases its operations in a specific municipal hub. As you venture forth, characters earn experience points through combat encounters, completed assignments, crafting tasks, and harvesting raw materials or crystals. Accumulating experience raises your level, boosts core statistics, and unlocks new traits and abilities.
Flexibility defines the progression system: players can instantly switch between different classes simply by equipping the appropriate tool, allowing a single character to maintain independent experience pools and distinct skill sets for multiple disciplines. Customization extends to your active action bar, where you can mix abilities learned from your primary discipline with selected cross-class skills. Quality-of-life adjustments further streamline the journey, such as the Armoury Box system which sorts weapons and armor into dedicated categories away from standard storage, and a handy jump maneuver that prevents characters from getting snagged on minor ledges and environmental hurdles.
