Players will have the chance to welcome the adventurer on their group from March 9 to March 22. On top of that, there will also be a new raid based on the action game Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, and various skins based on side characters from that title.
This is not the first time that the mobile game receives the special visit of a figure from outside the Final Fantasy universe, as last year it allowed players to add popstar Ariana Grande to their group.
