Celebrating the eleventh anniversary of Final Fantasy XI, Square Enix has announced two “Welcome Back” campaigns for returning players.

These campaigns will be limited-time opportunities for adventurers to return to the world of Vana'diel and experience the thrilling new content and various improvements that have been made to the game.

The event is planned to begin at 7:00 AM PST on December 10, and all inactive players who have previously subscribed to FF XI will automatically have their accounts reactivated, and will be able to play free of charge during the campaign period.

In order to participate, the PlayOnline account must be inactive and transferred to the Square Enix Account system.

The campaign will last until Monday, December 23, at 6:59 AM PST, after which time the normal subscription will be required for continued play.
