How to change the background on the Final Fantasy XIV Launcher
If you use the Final Fantasy XIV Launcher to start up your game, then you’re used to seeing the chosen artwork in the background. However, one thing added as part of the 7.1 update is a new ability to customize your launcher to suit your tastes. Are you a fan of G’raha? I mean really, who isn’t? Maybe you’ve got a soft spot for Erenville, and who could blame you? Well, now you can pick them to greet you whenever you open up the official Launcher to log in to Final Fantasy XIV. They’re not the only options, of course, but it’s nice that they are options among the current group of six. How to change your background in the Final Fantasy XIV Launcher Screenshot by Destructoid To change your background in the FFXIV Launcher, open it up and input your log-in details but don’t press “Play”. Instead, locate the cog button in the top right-hand side of the window, click it, and you’ll be taken to the Config menu. After the 7.1 update is live, there will be a new section underneath “Theme” where the possible backgrounds will show up.

To do this, make sure that every image (or the ones that you like) is surrounded by the green border and ticked off. Then, each time you log in, you’ll be greeted by someone different. It's hard to tell if other backgrounds will be coming in future updates, but as we have the main characters now all present and accounted for, it seems unlikely that further characters could be added. Although having said that, we are missing Koana, so there is hope that he might be added as an option soon.
