On August 13–14, 2025, players on all Elemental Data Centre Worlds experienced disconnections from certain instanced content due to a server issue. The problem began on August 13 at 19:15 GMT (20:15 BST) and August 14 at 5:15 AEST. Square Enix confirmed the cause and worked to restore normal service as quickly as possible.
FINAL FANTASY XIV News (@FFXIV_NEWS_EN) reported on Twitter that recovery efforts are underway for the [Elemental] EU servers following technical difficulties affecting instanced areas on August 13 and 14.
