World

This article is about the in-universe lore meaning of "world". For the list of Servers, which are officially referred to as "Worlds", see Servers.

Final Fantasy XIV is set on two planets:

• Hydaelyn, the Source, or Etheirys, is the setting of most of the game.
• The First, one of the Shards (reflections) of Hydaelyn, is the setting of the Shadowbringers expansion.

An additional shard has been depicted in cutscenes, but has not yet been visited by the players:

• The Void, one of the Shards (reflections) of Hydaelyn, is the home of all Voidsent and a major part of the patch 6.x plotline.

There are or were eleven other Shards, but they have as of yet not yet been depicted.
