Gold Saucer, also known as The Manderville Gold Saucer, is the arcade mode of Final Fantasy 14. Gold Saucer is a game center with various mini-games such as Triple Triad and Chocobo Racing. Players will be able to earn tokens called Manderville Gold Saucer Points by participating in Triple Triad, Chocobo Racing and other mini-games. These tokens cannot be traded or sold but they can be exchanged for Gold Saucer specific rewards.

  • Gold Saucer is scheduled to be released in patch 2.51.

Gold Saucer was originally from Final Fantasy VII.

Unlock

To unlock Gold Saucer, player must complete the questline starting It Could Happen to You. Players can start the quest by talking to Well-Heeled Youth in Ul'dah - Steps of Nald (x9,y9). Players must have completed the Main Scenario Quest: The Gridanian Envoy, The Ul'dahn Envoy or The Lominsan Envoy previously.

Triple Triad

Triple Triad is a card battle mini-game from Final Fantasy VIII. Players can battle NPCs to obtain new cards and Manderville Gold Saucer Points. Players can also battle each other for bragging rights.

Chocobo Racing

Chocobo Racing is a mini-game where the players act as breeders, trainers and jockeys of their chocobos. Players can enter their well-bred and carefully trained chocobos into races to increase their ranks and win Manderville Gold Saucer Points.

Mini-Games

Most of the mini-games are quick time events. These games will cost a small amount of Manderville Gold Saucer Points to play them. You will earn points back by skillfully playing these games. Players can earn Gold Saucer points from these mini-games but not as much as from Triple Triad or Chocobo Racing.

Cuff-a-cur
