Data mining shows new zones coming to FFXI?

[JTF-Taru]

Data mining appears to show new zones are on the way. Needs to be confirmed of course. Until then, it's just speculation.

There's 2 towns, a dungeon zone, 2 jungle zones, a river zone, a tunnel zone and 1 or 2 others. A new expansion perhaps?

Full details and pictures etc here.

Expect more details at Vanafest if this is legit.

It's a possibility--they've always used "PS2" limitation as an excuse, and they've recently announced that the required HDD space for those still using a PS2 would be increased from 8-10GB to 19GB. I can't imagine they would use nearly double the space for anything other than the final zones. (Well, some revamped models and such would be nice, but I doubt SE would bother with their on-going FFXIV-makeover project.)

Yup. That's a point.

So hard to work today…been reading on a number of guess/theories on where these new zones would be (if we truly are getting them).
I’m not gonna lie, getting pretty excited.

Also getting a lot more background story of FFXI, kinda makes me wish I read more CSs then spam through them.

I'm going to remain cynical until SE actually announces something definite. Something that has a release date to go with it.

This is reasonable.

What peeves me is that there exist people who won't even be satisfied with that much.

SE have just filed for a trademark for the name 'Seekers of Adoulin'.

Adoulin is a place that already exists in Vana'diel.

Adoulin - FFXIclopedia, the Final Fantasy XI wiki - Characters, items, jobs, and more

Seems the next expansion may be 'Seekers of Adoulin'.

yeah no kidding. Is it even possible for SE to create new things now and get the chance to announce it before it becomes old news?
