Unlock the Free "Photograph" Emote in Final Fantasy XIV Patch 7.18!

A delightful addition to Final Fantasy XIV's social features is the new "Photograph" emote, a freebie courtesy of a collaboration with Fujifilm Instax. This charming emote lets you capture in-game Polaroids anywhere in Eorzea.

Unlike many emotes requiring quests or purchases, the "Photograph" emote is readily available. Simply update to Patch 7.18, and it's yours! No level or expansion is needed.

Accessing and Using the Emote:

  1. Open your Emote menu (located under the "Social" tab).
  2. Find "Photograph" under the "General" tab.
  3. Select it to have your character snap a picture.
  4. Add it to your Favorites for easy access.

Enjoy the versatility! Use it underwater, while mounted, or even to create unique character poses. It's a fun, non-continuous emote perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to your FFXIV experience.

This concludes our guide to obtaining the "Photograph" emote. Patch 7.18 precedes the major Patch 7.2 release in late March, bringing exciting new content. For more FFXIV guides, check out our coverage of the Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event rewards.
