Final Fantasy 14 will introduce Bastion, its first new combat job for the forthcoming Evercold expansion. The heavily armoured tank uses a shield and a gun on each arm, giving players a new defensive role with a distinct, weapon-based fighting style.

The announcement positions Bastion as one of Evercold’s major gameplay additions, expanding the game’s tank-job roster. Its dual-arm equipment suggests a character built to absorb damage while attacking at close range, although further details about its abilities and release timing were not provided in the supplied text.
