Final Fantasy XI, also known as Final Fantasy XI Online, is the eleventh Final Fantasy mainline game and the first massively multiplayer online role-playing game in the series, developed by Square and originally published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 2; later releases for Microsoft Windows and Xbox 360 were published by Square Enix. XI was the first MMORPG with cross-platform play between consoles and personal computers, starting with the release of the Microsoft Windows version.
Five expansion packs have been released for XI: Rise of the Zilart, Chains of Promathia, Treasures of Aht Urhgan, Wings of the Goddess and Seekers of Adoulin.
Gameplay
Unlike all Final Fantasy games before it, Final Fantasy XI is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game with a fixed monthly subscription fee. Servers are not segregated by region, and players speaking different languages can communicate through an automatic translation software. The in-game interface features menus common to the Final Fantasy series, visual information such as player names, and an in-game log window showing such information as battle logs, system messages, player text input, and in-game dialogue. XI's interface is designed for gamepads with a virtual keyboard available by default, but all versions of the game have supported USB keyboards to ease text input.
The world of Final Fantasy XI is fully mapped with a virtual camera following the player. Player characters are customizable, with their race, nation allegiance, gender, and limited aspects of their physical appearance at the player's disposition. While battles in previous Final Fantasy games were random encounters in a separate screen, XI has battles seamlessly take place inside the world of Vana'diel.
