Taito will release its second batch of Final Fantasy XIV Job dolls as prizes in its crane games. Jobs depicted include the Ninja and Warrior. The Taito website lists a mid-January 2022 debut. However, the precise date is unknown. [Thanks, Dengeki!]

In total, Taito will release four variations of Final Fantasy XIV Job dolls. Aside from the aforementioned Ninja and Warrior jobs, you can also obtain dolls of the Black Mage and Scholar. The dolls stand at approximately 15 centimeters, or 6 inches, tall. With the addition of these four, Taito now offers a total of eight Final Fantasy XIV dolls as crane game prizes. In December 2021, it released dolls of the Paladin, White Mage, Monk, and Bard classes.

Because these dolls are available via Taito games, it may be difficult for those outside of Japan to obtain them. Not many shops appear to offer the first four dolls. While it is possible to play the online crane game and win them, Taito does not appear to offer overseas shipping.

Square Enix’s popular MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV recently received a new expansion, Endwalker. The sheer amount of players caused a massive strain on the game’s servers, leading to the suspension of certain services and game sales. However, with recent news of new Oceanic data centers, the Final Fantasy XIV team also announced that prospective players will be able to purchase the game again from January 25, 2022.

The Final Fantasy XIV Job prize dolls will appear in physical locations and online crane games from mid-January 2022.
