We’re not far from the release of Final Fantasy 14 patch 6.2, but an old villain is already wreaking (such) devastation on fans.
Slight spoilers for Endwalker and every other expansion to the MMORPG below, so consider this your only warning.
On Thursday, Square Enix teased everyone with some official artwork for the next major update. As many thought, the Pandaemonium raid series is indeed bringing Lahabrea, an antagonist from past storylines, back into the fold. We all saw that coming.
However, nobody could have known Lahabrea would be so hot.
Just look at him for yourself below. He’s a patriarch of poppas, an Ascian after our hearts, and the newly certified Dad of Eorzea.

You may not be aware of this, but dangling this sort of thing in front of Final Fantasy 14 players is like dropping raw chicken into a fish tank full of hungry piranha. Everyone is going nuts. Whether it’s off-the-cuff thirst tweets, drawing elegant fan art, or memeing through the heart’s desires.
As always, we’ve gathered the best reactions below. Enjoy.
