## Key points

- Matchmaking will span logical data centres in the same region from 10 November.
- The change aims to reduce waits for specific duties.
- Group-finding tools will also work across those data centres.

## Summary

Final Fantasy 14 will expand matchmaking across logical data centres within the same physical region from 10 November. The change is intended to shorten waits for specific duties, particularly alliance raids, and make it easier for players to find groups for high-end content.

The feature follows a successful trial on Japanese servers. It will also extend party finder, cross-world linkshells, fellowships, friends lists and direct messages across those data centres, while making travel between them easier. The game’s four physical regions are Japan, Europe, Oceania and North America; cross-region travel is not part of the announced update.
