  • Event Roadmap

    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 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)

    Season 6: 2030: JRPG

    League F can be added: Romancing SaGa: Fated (SFC)
