Overview
- GamesRadar+, Wccftech and Push Square report that Hamaguchi confirmed at Final Fantasy XIV Fan Fest in Berlin that every playable character will have four FITS, short for Function Integrated Tactical Suitwear.
- Hamaguchi explained the cap reflects how much more work modern 3D outfits and unique character animations require compared with older, pixel‑based Final Fantasy job systems.
- Square Enix and analysts frame the four‑FITS choice as a deliberate trade‑off to preserve clear combat roles and tactical variety while avoiding the design, animation and balancing burden of 20–30 jobs.
- Commentary from Wccftech notes that more FITS could overwhelm players and leave many options underused, while the development team plans to reserve additional material for DLC rather than bloat the base release.
- Reports place Revelation on a Spring 2027 release window, possibly February–March, and say players should expect more FITS details before launch as the studio shows remaining outfits and roles.
