Let’s watch today’s Final Fantasy XIV/Diablo 4/Path of Exile triple-header

Today should be a fun one with three bigger streaming events scheduled in the gaming world. I’ll be watching all three and want to invite you to join me in an exciting Friday triple-header stream session!

First, the Final Fantasy XIV Fan Fest kicks off at 1 p.m. ET with a 1.5 hour Keynote presented by FF14 Director and Producer Naoki Yoshida. You can watch along on their o🤡r once the🤪 Fan Fest starts.

Next up we have a Diablo 4 Campfire Chat at 2 p.m. ET. Don’t worry, you’re not crazy. We just had one of these Campfire Chats on July 21. The Campfire Chat will be streamed on the official Diablo and channels once live.

Finally, to round out the day, ExileCon begins at 6 p.m. ET with a Keynote presented by Grinding Gear Games Producer and Developer Chris Wilson. ExileCon will be available live 𝐆on the Path of Exile and channels when they begin.

Now let’s take a look at what’s can expect from each of the three events, so you know if there’s something you might want to watch! Also, as each event starts we will update this post to include an embed of the stream so you can watch along with us.

Final Fantasy XIV Fan Fest

Fans are holding out hope we’ll get at least some sort of information about update 7.0, the next expansion for Final Fantasy XIV. Square Enix has not confirmed or denied what we will see in the Keynote. This is the fifth annual fan festival for FF14, and is primarily a chance for fans of the MMORPG to meet up and share their passion for the game. While no date’s been set, we get a new expansion until 2024. Therefore, time-wise it’s possible we see some sort of reveal today, but also possible we don’t until the winter months.

Surprise, expansion! Here’s everything shown at today’s Final Fantasy XIV Fan Fest keynote.

Diablo 4 Campfire Chat

No, you’re not crazy. We just had one of these Campfire Chats on July 21. But a week ago the Diablo team promised better communication moving forward, starting with a planned Campfire Chat for today to discuss the upcoming patch 1.1.1. The update will focus on Class balance changes primarily with the Sorcerer and Barbarian. Furthermore, a variety of quality-of-life updates were teased for the upcoming patch so chances are we will hear more details about them as well. Finally, last week the team confirmed the release of patch 1.1.1 would follow soon after this Campfire Chat so it’s likely we will get a date for it as well.

Well, that’s a wrap! Check out our Diablo 4 Campfire Chat recap here.

Path of Exile at ExileCon

Fans of Path of Exile are in for a treat. After four years the second ExileCon ever is finally here, and it’s sure to be a big one. Grinding Gear Games has confirmed Path of Exile 2 will be a big component of this year’s event. It’s likely we’ll see some more in-depth gameplay and feature reveals, as PoE2 has been teased quite a bit over the last few months at other events like Summer Game Fest. It’s even possible we’ll finally get a release date. Also, patch 3.22—the new Path of Exile season—will be revealed today. We can expect a video showing off the new league mechanic as well as any new features and items being added to PoE with the🔥 update. Grinding Gear Games has admitted that this will be a big event, so who knows what else we may see.
