Final Fantasy 14 fans are going wild over the Dragonsong Reprise raid storyline

The world-first race may revive a beloved character.

Before we get into this story properly, please know that there’ll be massive spoilers for Final Fantasy 14: Heavensward. The expansion is more than five years old now, so plot details should be fair game by now. However, nonchalantly ruining one of the MMORPG’s most prominent story beats feels wrong. So go catch up if you haven’t and come back!

Dragonsong’s Reprise is the new ultimate raid from patch 6.11 in Final Fantasy 14: Endwalker. It’s already the most brutal fight in the MMORPG’s history, blitzing even top-tier raiders. Think of it as an esport, but competitors are racing for a world-first finish. It’s exciting beyond belief, especially for fans still mourning over Haurchefant, the beloved character who tragically passed away in Heavensward.

The wildest part of Dragonsong’s Reprise is that changing Haurchefant’s fate, and creating an alternate timeline where he survives, is potentially in the cards.

Nobody knows for sure if that’ll happen since, as of this post, none of the big raiding teams have finished the (multiple) fights. That’s not stopping onlooking Final Fantasy 14 fans from going wild with speculation, fanart, and memes. We’ll list some of the coolest reactions to Dragonsong’s Reprise below.
