How To Unlock the Photograph Emote (Patch 7.18) in Final Fantasy XIV

As part of an exciting collaboration with Fujifilm’s Instax, Final Fantasy XIV’s Patch 7.18 introduces a delightful new emote that’s available to all players at no cost. The "Photograph" emote lets you capture the essence of photography wherever you are in Eorzea, adding a fun and unique touch to your adventures.

How To Use the Photograph Emote in FFXIV

To use the Photograph emote, navigate to the "Social" tab in your Emote menu and find the "Photograph" option under the "General" tab, typically located near the bottom of the list. Once selected, your character will whip out a stylish Fujifilm-style camera to snap a Polaroid picture. If you plan on using it frequently, consider adding it to your Favorites for easy access.

While the Photograph emote is not designed for continuous use or "AFK" activities, its versatility shines through in various settings. You can use it in diverse environments, such as underwater in the Ruby Sea or while mounted on a ground or flying creature, creating unique and engaging moments with your fellow adventurers. Imagine the fun of staging Inception-like poses with your characters!

Patch 7.18 marks the final update before the content-rich Patch 7.2, set to release in late March. Players can look forward to exciting additions like new dungeons, a return to the Arcadion, Cosmic Exploration, and much more.
