Final Fantasy XIV offers plenty of activities for players of all types. While there is a plethora of content for those interested in experiencing the story and tackling AI enemies, there is also a PvP option for those aiming to test their skills against other players. The PvP is getting an overhaul with the 6.1 update.

Square Enixannounced that a new mode would replace The Feast PvP mode in Final Fantasy XIV alongside the 6.1 update. This new model, Crystalline Conflict, sees players join together in five-person teams in small arenas, a shift from The Feast’s four-person groups.
