    Whirlwind Four-Job Fiesta (FJF)

    For clymax’s projects, click here. You can also follow him on YouTube or Twitter.

    Each new league is slated to be added in the season following that of the preceding league, but only if the preceding league met the minimum player threshold to be held.

    For example, Whirlwind’s minimum of eight players was met in 2025, so the Aflame league was opened in 2026.

    Had the minimum not been met until 2027, the Aflame league would open in 2028, for instance.

    League redemptions may be limited to a specific number of leagues per player per season.

    Not all previously added leagues may necessarily be available in a given season. The FFV league should remain available each season.

    So, the following details are tentative and hence subject to change.

    Season 1: 2025: JRPG

    League A added: Final Fantasy V: Whirlwind (SFC)

    Event announcement here.

    Season 2: 2026: JRPG

    League B can be added: Dragon Quest VI: Aflame (SFC)

    Event announcement here.

    Season 3: 2027: ARPG

    League C can be added: Ys III: Wanderlust (SNES)

    Season 4: 2028: ADV

    League D can be added: Super Metroid: Liberation (SNES)

    Season 5: 2029: ACT

    League E can be added: Mega Man X3: Vaporized (SNES)

    Final Fantasy League

    The Whirlwind Four-Job Fiesta (FJF) event has been renewed for a second season, running from June 1 to August 31.

    This was first announced here on Romhack Plaza, affiliate of FFV Central.

    Announcements were later made on Speedrun.com here and on RHDN here.

    The event is based on the FFV: Whirlwind respinner.

    The event remains largely the same as last year’s.

    For more info on the event, see last year’s post below.

    Whirlwind Fiesta + Communities Collide

    Starting this year, playing in Fiesta mode is required for the event. This means Division III is not available this season except for players who wish to do more than a first run.

    This year, invited communities get three prequalification slots each. Two mystery guests have been invited. In addition, there are two slots for “last-chance qualified” communities to appear as mystery guests. The mystery guests also get three prequalification slots each.

    As with last year, a minimum of eight signups can be required for the event awards to be awardable.

    Starting this year, of the bonus divisions, only Division IV-A is available, and only to members with the Crystal Warrior role.

    Dragon Quest League

    This season, a new league based on the Dragon Quest VI: Aflame respinner is eligible to be opened based on player interest.

    Currently, eligible players can redeem just one mod per season, so choose between Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest.

    Playing in Fiesta mode is required for the event.

    A minimum of eight signups can be required for this league to be opened.

    Opening the league allows a new mod to be added next season. See the event roadmap near the end of this post for more details.

    For more on the Aflame mod, see the related post below.

    Dragon Quest VI: Aflame Released

    Event Seed

    The event seed will be named after Fire Storm from FF6 Hacking to honor his memory.

    Remembering Fire Storm

    Grand Prize

    Aside from the badge/role awards, the Fiesta Champion of each season will be able to redeem the dev build of any mod from the Game Jolt collection, including all future updates. For more on the mods, click here.

    Or, a three-time champion can redeem a commissioned respinner of a game of the champion’s choosing, where the game is of a supported system (NES, SNES, PCE, GB, GBC).

    So, what are you waiting for? Come by our Discord, and we hope to see you in the game!
