• Recommencement of Automatic Demolition

  -
  

  The automatic demolition of estates was suspended in March 2020 due to the worldwide spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). However, after careful consideration, we have decided to resume auto-demolition with the release of Patch 5.4.
  
  Although COVID-19 continues to have a large impact on our daily lives and economy, we are grateful for our many players worldwide who have continued to play FFXIV after our decision to suspend auto-demolition. We believe this new lifestyle and economic situation of living alongside COVID-19 will continue for the long-term and have therefore decided to resume auto-demolition.
  
  The development and operations teams offer their deepest sympathies and wish the speedy recovery of those who have been affected by the worldwide spread of COVID-19.
  
  * There is a possibility the timer will be suspended again should the need arise.
