For this first online Final Fantasy, Naoshi Mizuta, Nobuo Uematsu and Kumi Tanioka sign an orchestral score of rare breadth, from the majestic title theme to the melodies of Vana'diel. The music wraps exploration and shared adventure in an epic, warm gust. This symphonic richness left its mark on a whole community.

Travelling back in time to the Great War, the Wings of the Goddess expansion unfolds new areas and the Scholar and Dancer jobs. Exploring that past, fleshing out your characters and progressing through a long story feeds the MMORPG by dozens of hours. That time travel, added to an endless world, extends a longevity the community cultivates over the long term.

Altana no Shinpei (Wings of the Goddess) sends Final Fantasy XI twenty years back into the Crystal War and adds the Scholar and Dancer jobs alongside the Campaign mode. This 2007 expansion, kept to Japanese physical media, matters chiefly for its place in the series timeline and the drive to assemble the full set of PS2 packs. Print runs were confined to Japan.
