FFXIV adds a Namazu-themed emote for the 2024 Moonfire Faire

Is this the vacation we were promised?

Final Fantasy XIV is known for its seasonal events, taking place regularly throughout the year with Eorzean traditions and in-game spectacle. Next up on this roster of fun times is the Moonfire Faire, which is set to return from August 8 to August 26 for its 2024 festivities.

If you’re at least level 30 and want to get your hands on some pretty fun rewards, you’ll be able to take part in this year’s Moonfire Faire. This event always has players traveling to Costa Del Sol in droves, where they can take part in the event quest or tackle the frustrating yearly fixture that is the Moonfire Faire jumping puzzle. 

This year, the quest you’ll need to pick up is called ‘Fire Red, Beast Green’ and you’ll find the starting point for the event in Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks. 

Up for grabs in August is the Uchiwasshoi! emote, which will provide players with a long handled fan complete with Namazu design. The emote is very similar to something that the Namazu themselves do fairly often, although we’ll only be armed with one fan as opposed to their signature double wielding technique.

As well as the emote, players will be able to get a new housing item in the shape of three multicolored floating bombs. The Bouncing Bomb Balloon will be available during the event, alongside various items from previous iterations of Moonfire Faire. 

The item rewarded for completing 2023’s Moonfire Faire, the Power Rangers-esque Pheonix Riser costume, will also likely become available on the FFXIV Online Store on August 8 as well.
