A Final Fantasy XIV x Instax Collaboration Brings A New Emote

A recurring feature in Final Fantasy XIV is the collaboration. Whether the collaboration is with another game like Fall Guys or a real world product like Mountain Dew, expect at least one collaboration to show up every year. The first one has shown up with the launch of patch 7.18 this morning.

We’re delighted to announce that FINAL FANTASY XIV will be collaborating with Instax™, the instant camera from FUJIFILM, to bring you an all-new emote for Patch 7.18, due for release on Tuesday, February 25, 2025. We’ll also be hosting a screenshot sweepstakes campaign on X in celebration of this snap-happy collaboration.

Now, I know a lot of my readers will express unhappiness and disdain that the contest will take place on X. But no participation is required to receive the emote. A website does exist for those interested in winning one of the 10,000 prizes available.

What we know so far

I think the emote is rather cute. Apparently Fuji is bringing back the old Polaroid camera. For those too young to remember, before the advent of the phone camera people could take pictures using a fast developing film that would pop out of the top or the front of a camera for instant gratification.

The /photographer emote

The emote does not actually take a picture. For that players still need to go into gpose to get a clear shot without the user interface showing. 

I know a lot of players are looking forward to things like the removal of the weekly restrictions on Savage content. But I'll take a cute emote while I finish up my tasks to finish before the launch of patch 7.2.
