Final Fantasy 14 producer and director Naoki Yoshida said during a Q&A session that some quality-of-life changes for Fisher and Black Mage are slated for Evercold. Following an executive decision to delay the expansion by three weeks, Final Fantasy 14: Evercold will arrive on February 23, 2027, with early access kicking off on February 19.

As the sixth expansion for Square Enix's critically acclaimed MMORPG, Evercold will take the Warrior of Light and their comrades to an icy realm called the Fourth Reflection, a parallel "shard" of their home world of Etheirys. Final Fantasy 14's next expansion will make sweeping changes to the game's gear progression and combat systems.

Square Enix officially announces the upcoming release of Final Fantasy 14: Agents of Enquiry.

One day after the Tokyo FanFest keynote , Yoshida responded to some questions submitted by players in advance. As translated by the Final Fantasy 14 subreddit Discord, Yoshida said that Fishers will no longer need to carry around bait in their inventories once Evercold arrives. In short, a bait list will be available that will expand as players level up Fisher, complete specific quests, or purchase them once from a vendor. Once a bait is unlocked, it will appear on the bait list and can be used as often as needed. An additional toggle that will only show which baits will work at a given fishing spot will also be available. Any fishing bait that is leftover once the expansion arrives can be traded in for gil from a vendor.
