You can find many more images at the North American official FFXIV websiteFFXIVCore.com also translated an interview with Yaeko Satou, who is in charge of Final Fantasy XIV's storyline, in which a Santa Claus sack full of information regarding the game and its story is revealedI think that's enough information on Final Fantasy XIV for the time being.  I now leave you with the game's newly released prologue:

"It is nigh on ten years since the fearsome beings known as the primals first appeared in these landsTen years since they were summoned forth by the destructive ambition of the beast tribesTen years, and still those tribes, drunk on the power granted them by the primals, continue to wreak havoc upon the free peoples of EorzeaTo the northeast, the Garlean Empire stirs, casting an ominous shadow across the realm

Seeking dominion over the continent of Aldenard, the Garleans set out on a campaign of conquest, smiting all opposition with their superior technology and overwhelming military mightIn a relentless drive to the south and west, they lay ruin to the once flourishing city-state of Ala MhigoIt is in the midst of this embattled Eorzea that a mysterious power surfacesKnown simply as the Echo, it is said to cause the souls of those touched by it to resonate with othersAnd of this is born the ability to relive their past experiences--to see and feel them as though they were one's own

Can these seeds of the past somehow serve to sow hope for the future? What is the origin of this eldritch power? Is it a deific gift of righteousness? Or the deception of some sinister sorcery? To what end has it been given? The search for the answers to such questions falls to youSo go forthSeek out and join your brethrenAnd together claim your place among the legends in the annals of time."
