Dinesh Shamdasani, co-founder of Hivemindconfirmed on X/Twitter that the series project live-action of Final Fantasy XIV is “dead”. He explains that the pilot was written by Ben Lustig and Jake Thorton, with a plan for several seasons, but nothing was validated.

The team had big ambitions, they wanted a lot of budget, but no company wants to take the gamble. Dinesh Shamdasani indicates thatAmazon was the closest to producing the series. Screenwriter Jake Thorton reacted to this announcement and explained for his part that cancellation of the series live-action FF 14 is “a real result of COVID”companies in fact reduced their production budgets at the time when the project of Hivemind was looking for funding.
