Ahead of the Letter from the Producer LIVE Part LXXVII broadcast, there was a brief segment where Director and Producer Naoki Yoshida and Global Community Producer Toshio “Foxclon” Murouchi talked and prepared. However, when one showed up on-stream, it involved another game. When Yoshida showed up for the presentation, he was carrying a The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom OLED Switch and playing the game.
When Yoshida sat down to appear on FFXIV Letter from the Producer LIVE, he had his The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Switch with him. He was very obviously playing during part of it. He then turned the system around and showed it to the audience, showing he was in the midst of actually playing the game.
As pointed out by Aitai Kuji CEO Audrey Lamsam, the fact Yoshida played The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ahead of the FFXIV presentation is now trending in Japan. People are sharing comments and screenshots under the hashtag #吉田ゼルダ.
Final Fantasy XIV is immediately available on PC, PS4, and PS5, and patch 6.4 will release on May 23, 2023. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available for the Nintendo Switch.
