Game enthusiasts can also expect a new 24-player raid, added quests in the main storyline, Void Ark, and Exploratory Mission that will send off players to emote places and islands for some rare loot hunting adventure.
The Void Ark is a new raid which will take place on a gigantic airship with dark beasts and would have been been a nice treat for halloween. The ark is a haunted ghostship that will require 24 people to handle. Sky pirates will be deploying the gamers to it to stop the dark magic that is infesting it. According to PCGamesN, the in-game screenshots show that players will be dueling with all types of demons including the strangely familiar Diablo of Final Fantasy 8 summon fame.
