Greetings, everyone!
A couple weeks ago we launched the FFXIV Chocobo Race contest on Twitter, and chocobo jockeys all over Eorzea have been riding their hearts out to cross the finish line and score the prize payout! We’re getting ready to kick off the third race out of eight this afternoon at 1 p.m. (PDT), so if you’re interested in winning a custom FFXIV: Heavensward MSI laptop, a copy of the FFXIV: Heavensward Collector’s Edition, some awesome Logitech gaming peripherals, and other great prizes, then saddle up and get ready to race!
Races begin every Tuesday at 1 p.m. (PDT), and everyone who races will automatically be entered into a sweepstakes for loot. Concerned that you don’t have enough Twitter followers? No need to get your chocobo feathers in a ruffle as there are lots of ways to get ahead of the flock and win!
For those aspiring chocobo jockeys out there, head to the official FFXIV Chocobo Race site to learn more about the contest and sign up for a race!
We’ll be tweeting out updates about races from the official Twitter account (@FF_XIV_EN), so be sure to follow us and join the conversation using the #FFXIVChocoboRace hashtag.
See you on the tracks!
– Camate (I’ll actually just be cheering from the stands!)
