Final Fantasy XIV will be getting at least another five years of content if the game?s audience continues to grow in the way it?s doing right now. According to the Washington Post, with 20 million registered players and that number growing all the time, developer and publisher Square Enix won?t rest on their laurels until that number hits 30 million.

The game has certainly managed to turn its fortunes around since launch. When it arrived on PC in 2010, the game had a whole load of issues that led to it being considered a failure and unfinished. The title struggled on for two years before the servers were closed in 2012. Producer and director Naoki Yoshida was brought in to turn the game around and that he has done. The game was rebuilt from the ground up and re-released as Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn in 2013, this time on PS3 too. Since then it has gone from strength to strength, hitting 20 million registered players last July. Yoshida said they won?t be stopping there, though:
