Had to double check, been waiting for this for a while.
It's coming out in June! This is literally just a benchmark program, they done the same for FF14 and ARR a few months before it was available to buy.
Back to waiting, looking forward to putting some more hours into FF14.

I got a code from MSI, so right chuffed with that. I am a big FF fan although not played any of the online games. Also, am I missing something? I thought FFIVX A Realm Reborn had been out a while and I am now playing it?
Edit:
NVM, Just seen this bench is for HeavenSword.
Aye, it's been out a fair while.
This is the first expansion
I've really enjoyed ARR, much better than the original 14. Hoping to get back into it once this expansion comes out, had a few too many months break so it's a decent excuse
I can't even remember the world my character is in![]()
