The Return to Ivalice is a series of 24-player Alliance raid Alliance raids in Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood, in the style of the Crystal Tower and the Shadow of Mhach raid series. It sees players travel to a destroyed region said to be the remnants of the legendary land of Ivalice, with Ivalice creator Yasumi Matsuno serving as a guest creator on the series, and Keita Amemiya the creater of the GARO series as the lead monster designer.

Story[]

This morning, residents of Kugane woke to find above their city an airship unlike any ever seen. Yet while of Garlean design, the vessel distinctly lacked the bleak outfitting common in the Empire's warmachina. No, this was the Prima Vista, private stage for the Majestic Imperial Theater Company—a troupe having won acclaim across Garlemald for their timeless work, "The Zodiac Brave Story." Which begets the question...why are they here? The answer to that question and more lies in the selfsame legend of which they sing. The legend of Ivalice.

Locations[]
