We’re excited to officially launch the new MistXI website 🎉
This update isn’t just a visual refresh — it’s a foundational upgrade that brings the site closer to the game server itself and gives us room to grow alongside the community.
What’s New
✨ A Modern, Lightweight Design
The site has been rebuilt with a cleaner layout, improved readability, and a style inspired by the world of Final Fantasy XI. The focus is on clarity, atmosphere, and speed — whether you’re browsing on desktop or mobile.
📊 Live Server Status & Player Counts
For the first time, the website now pulls live data directly from the server:
- Online / Offline / Maintenance status
- Current number of players online
- Total characters created
- Server uptime
This information updates automatically, so you always know the state of Vana’diel at a glance.
📰 News & Announcements
We’ve added a dedicated News section to keep updates, announcements, and development notes in one place. Recent posts also appear right on the homepage, so you won’t miss important updates.
🖼️ Screenshot Gallery
A new gallery section lets us showcase gameplay, events, and moments from the MistXI world. Expect this to grow over time as the community continues to create memories.
⚙️ Built for the Future
Under the hood, the site is now:
- Fully static and fast (powered by Hugo)
- More secure and easier to maintain
- Designed to integrate directly with server-side data
This makes it easier to add new features down the road without sacrificing performance or stability.
What’s Next
This launch is just the beginning. Upcoming improvements may include expanded server statistics, more community features, and additional quality-of-life updates based on player feedback.
As always, thank you for being part of MistXI. We’re excited to continue building this world together — both in-game and beyond.
See you in Vana’diel!
