You might be able to upgrade to the Digital Deluxe edition anytime, but pre-order bonuses in Final Fantasy XIV are a one-and-done deal you won’t see again after the official launch—if you haven’t already, make sure to pick up your Dawntrail pre-order bonuses before heading off to Tural.
Where to redeem Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail pre-order bonuses
Like any other in-game item bought from the online store or redeemed through Mogstation, FFXIV: Dawntrail’s pre-order bonuses are delivered right to your character via Delivery Moogle. You can access your inbox through any Delivery Moogle NPC in any city, private apartment lobby, or mailbox at your private housing (provided you’ve set one down on your lawn).
Tab over from “Letters from Friends” to “Purchases and Rewards,” and you should find a new letter with your pre-order bonuses attached.
If you’ve only registered your pre-order code right before logging in, there’s a small chance the letter won’t have arrived yet. The item delivery service is notoriously unpredictable, sometimes taking up to 24 hours to successfully send purchases and rewards. In this case, there’s nothing you can do but continue playing as you wait for the letter to arrive.
If 24 hours have passed and you still haven’t gotten your bonuses, you can press the Reward/Purchase Delivery Request button at the top of your inbox. Try not to press this button before 24 hours have passed or in close succession over a few hours—it can actually make your delivery take longer by clogging the system and resetting your order.
All Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail pre-order bonuses
In addition to early access, pre-ordering any edition of FFXIV: Dawntrail also comes with:
- Wind-up Zidane minion
- Azeyma’s earring
While it might not seem like much, Azeyma’s earring is a game-changer for leveling up your jobs. It gives a whopping 30% bonus to all EXP gained while at or under level 90, making it a must-have for getting Pictomancer or Viper ready for the Dawntrail MSQ. Not to mention, the earring automatically syncs to your level, making it Best-in-Slot while you’re leveling—you just have to put it on and never worry about it again until you finally hit level 90.
