First Fantastic Final Fantasy XIV gameplay video shown at GamesCom 2009

Final Fantasy XIV in-game screenshot
The first in-game gameplay footage of Final Fantasy XIV has been revealed thanks to the GamesCom 2009 conference in Germany.

Although this footage is from an Alpha build (meaning it’s very early) and it is taken off of a TV screen with a camera, one thing is immediately apparent. This game looks damn good graphically. It is leagues ahead of Square Enix’s last online MMORPG, Final Fantasy XI.

Final Fantasy XIV will be released worldwide in 2010 exclusively for the PlayStation 3 and the PC.

Now check it out in action for the first time!
