Final Fantasy XIV (FFXIV) will be holding an online sweepstakes to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its base game A Realm Reborn (ARR).

To celebrate the tenth anniversary of FFXIV's relaunch back in 2013, they will be holding the ARR 10th Anniversary Sweepstakes. Entry for the Sweepstakes started on May 14, 2023, at 8:00 AM PDT, and will end on May 27, 2023, at 8:00 AM PDT. A total of 2,800 players who participate in the sweepstakes will receive the OFC Whistle. The OFC Whistle, when used, will allow the player to summon the Original Fat Chocobo mount. The Original Fat Chocobo mount is different from the Fat Chocobo mount, in that it is white instead of yellow.

Entering the sweepstakes is easy. Players have to follow three simple steps:

  1. Follow the Final Fantasy XIV English official Twitter account
  2. Retweet the event tweet (embedded above)
  3. Reply to the tweet with the player's in-game name (put the name of the character you want to have the mount on), their home world, and the hashtag #FFXIV10thSweepstakes

After finishing the steps indicated above, players will then have to wait for the entry period to end. Once it is done, the player will then receive the OFC Whistle in-game via the Moogle Delivery Service if they are one of the 2,800 winners. The prizes will arrive to all winners on June 12, 2023.

It's important to note that there are entry restrictions to this promotion. The sweepstakes is “open only to individuals who are legal residents and physically and permanently located in one of the following countries/territories at the date and time of entry”:
