Square Enix announced today that Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will get a live action TV commercial. The ad has been in the works for eighteen months and is scheduled to debut in Europe in the weeks before the game's launch on August the 27th. At the moment there's no word about any airing in North America.

Those that will attend Gamescom will also get to catch a glimpse on the costumes used for the commercial, that will be on display at the show.

Below you can see a small gallery with a few stills of the video, that seems to be based on the beautiful "The End of an Era" CG trailer. For a live action commercial, it doesn't even look too cheesy.
