Issue #41 of the official Final Fantasy XI newsletter is now available for your viewing pleasure.
The focus of the newsletter is the large amount of content added with the June version update which includes the new battlefields in the Walk of Echoes, changes made to older Promathia areas and of course the Vision of Abyssea add-on.
Also mentioned is the Beckett screenshot contest. On top of a subscription for the magazine, the first place winner also received a Shadow Lord statue, courtesy of Square Enix.
