The latest update for Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles, version 1.4.0, has been deployed to clean up some lingering issues in the war-torn lands of Ivalice. This patch is all about correctness, targeting a broken Akademy report, a mislabeled character, and an ability's voice-over that wasn't working as intended.
Correcting the Chronicles of Ivalice
While not a content patch, version 1.4.0 addresses some specific and frustrating bugs that could disrupt a player's immersion or progress. For a game built on deep lore and intricate systems, these fixes are crucial for maintaining the integrity of the experience. The update is now live across all platforms.
Here are the key changes deployed:
- 'Master of All Trades' Fix: The Akademy report for mastering all jobs will now complete correctly. This is a huge relief for completionists who were previously blocked from achieving 100% progress.
- Ability Audio Restored: An issue affecting the Japanese voice and text for the ability Northswain's Strike has been resolved.
- Character Name Correction: The character name "Helvynya" will no longer be incorrectly displayed as "Holy," restoring her proper identity within the game's narrative.
- General Polish: The patch also includes fixes for minor text issues across all languages and adjustments to certain sound effects.
Why do these small fixes matter?
In a game as story-rich as Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles, details are everything. A misnamed character can pull you right out of a dramatic moment, and a bugged report can invalidate hours of grinding jobs. This patch shows a commitment to preserving the carefully crafted world of Ivalice and ensuring that every player's journey through the War of the Lions is as smooth as possible.
