About this site

About xivlauncher.blog

xivlauncher.blog is an independent English guide for players researching XIVLauncher download sources, FFXIV launcher setup, Steam Deck installation, Linux support, Dalamud, plugins, and common troubleshooting topics.

What we do

We help users find the correct official XIVLauncher source and understand the surrounding setup decisions. That includes explaining which Windows release asset to use, why Steam Deck and Linux users need a different path, what Dalamud means, and how to think about plugin and antivirus warnings.

What we do not do

We do not develop XIVLauncher, host unofficial installers, operate a plugin repository, or represent Square Enix, Goatcorp, XIVLauncher, Dalamud, or Final Fantasy XIV. Download buttons on this site route users to official or authoritative external sources.

Editorial approach

  • Official and first-party sources are prioritized for download and version facts.
  • Version details are labeled with the date checked.
  • Safety claims are kept cautious and tied to source context.
  • Third-party launcher, plugin, and Terms of Service caveats are visible instead of buried.
