Square Enix has announced plans for three new expansion scenarios for Final Fantasy XI, each to be released through a digital distribution service for all Final Fantasy XI platforms – the game’s currently played by 500,000 users on PC, Xbox 360 and PS2.

The three new expansions have been created by Masato Kato, one of the minds behind the original Final Fantasy XI storyline. The first of the three expansions, A Crystalline Prophecy, is set for a spring 2009 release, with follow-ups (A Moogle Kupo d’Etat and A Shantotto Ascension) to be made available every few months thereafter.

A Crystalline Prophecy – Ode of Life Bestowing

One day, a giant crystal appeared in the skies above Jeuno, triggering a series of unexplained happenings across the land. Now, adventurers will set forth to unravel the mysteries of this primordial crystal that holds the secret of Vana’diel’s past.

A Moogle Kupo d’Etat – Evil in Small Doses

It all started with an innocent drop of rainwater and a rickety, ramshackle Mog House desperately in need of repairs. Little did anyone suspect that this was only the beginning of a harrowing nightmare unheard of in the annals of moogle-kind.

A Shantotto Ascension – The Legend Torn, Her Empire Born

The eccentric Professor Shantotto returned to Windurst one day after a mysterious, unexplained absence, shocking her colleagues with behavior so outrageous it put her old self to shame! When she goes so far as to proclaim herself ruler of her own empire, adventurers set out to discover the truth behind her alarming shift in personality.
