After years of anticipation, Final Fantasy 14 is at last set to launch on Xbox Series X and S on March 21. If you're a new player checking out the MMO for the first time, however, you need to understand that there's a big caveat to a special deal that Xbox is offering for Game Pass subscribers.
Between March 21 and April 19, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members will be able to claim the FF14: Starter Edition as a free perk. The Starter Edition includes the exact same content as the free trial - the base game alongside the Heavensward and Stormblood expansions - alongside 30 days of free game time. While the free trial would allow you to keep playing that content indefinitely, once you pick up the Starter Edition, you have to start paying the MMO's monthly subscription fee after your 30 days are up.
