Pretty short clip but interesting to see original animation made to advertise the game.

The Chocobo racing art reminded me of the Redline anime movie

Are cat girls allergic to dreadlocks, aka the best hair for cat girls?

you are definitely right about that.

Man, the Japanese marketing for Final Fantasy is so much cooler than in the west.

you are definitely right about that.

I definitely got some Redline vibes, as well. Takeshi Koike maybe worked on that scene?

i really hope square throw money to make FFXIV 24 episode anime..they can even just throw isekai setting..doesnt matter

it shame they didnt take advantage to milk this game with current growing isekai/fantasy anime trend

That ad is great, but has a hilariously different tone from what is going on in the new expansion's story lol

Also, this is apparently just the first of three commercials like it, according to the promo site.

ファイナルファンタジーXIV: 漆黒のヴィランズ CM - CHOOSE YOUR LIFE | SQUARE ENIX

あなたらしい主人公になろう。ファイナルファンタジーXIV（FF14）初のアニメCM「CHOOSE YOUR LIFE」を公開中！この世界では、何にでもなれる。それが、FFXIVという場所。

Yeah, the western commercial for Shadowbringers is Tom Holland and Hannibal Burress as roomates trying to be funny. Not nearly as good as this.

What's wrong wtih Tom Holland trying to be a DRK?

 

[Pagusas]

Wish we’d get the anime visuals instead of what we got for XIV

Here's the next one:


Also, they re-uploaded the first one because in one of the shots the Miqo'te had human ears lol

I'd watch that vanilla.

Though I gotta say I love that Japan totally went for the "FIND LOVE IN THE FANTASY" thing.

I like the young lad Tom, and I like Hannibal usually, but those ads were a bit meh. The gags/jokes fell flat for me, but I understand the general purpose of hiring celebrities with reach to market the game. I didn't find it to be all that creative with that ad, at least in my opinion.

Having Tom Holland wear legit sick looking Dark Knight armor, giant sword and all, doing shenanigans would be more entertaining. I guess he's not allowed to don fantastical costumes outside of his contract with Disney idk lol.
