Vision Awakening

Created page covering magicite, the three awakening stages, the two confirmed magicite sources, and how awakening differs from affinity and mastery growth
Awakening is the magicite-driven upgrade track for Visions. Square Enix detailed it on August 24, 2026. Magicite found along the journey awakens a Vision, granting it stronger abilities along with higher-level skills and magic. Magicite is limited, so which Visions to awaken is a decision the player makes rather than something every Vision eventually receives.
An awakened Vision gains stronger abilities plus higher-level skills and magic. Awakening runs in three stages, and each stage calls for higher-grade magicite to draw out greater power. What separates one stage from the next in numbers has not been published.
Detail | Confirmed Value |
|---|---|
Material | Magicite |
Stages | Three |
Cost per stage | Higher-grade magicite at every stage |
Supply | Limited, so the choice of which Visions to awaken matters |
What it grants | Stronger abilities, plus higher-level skills and magic |
Applies to | Equippable Visions |
Magicite has two confirmed in-world sources. Dungeons hold it inside treasure chests, and certain powerful monsters award it when defeated. Those monsters have a name: Mighty Foes preside over the caverns dotted across the land, and defeating them grants magicite. That makes the cavern hunt the repeatable half of the supply and dungeon exploration the other half.
Source | Detail |
|---|---|
Dungeon treasure chests | Magicite lies within chests found in dungeons |
Powerful monsters presiding over the land's caverns; defeating them grants magicite | |
Magitek Airship & Squire Starter Pack | A single Magicite Shard ships with the pre-order pack; see Editions and Pre-Order Bonuses |
Three separate tracks strengthen a Vision, and each runs on a different input. Awakening spends magicite. Affinity grows by fighting battles with the Vision equipped, unlocking more of that Vision's abilities as it rises. Mastery Ranks accumulate from mastery points earned in battle and pay out permanent stat boosts and further equippable abilities. The affinity and mastery layers are documented at Abilities and Mastery.
Track | What Advances It | What It Unlocks |
|---|---|---|
Awakening | Spending magicite, in three stages | Stronger abilities, plus higher-level skills and magic |
Affinity with a Vision | Fighting battles with that Vision equipped | More of that Vision's abilities |
Mastery Rank | Mastery points earned in battle | Permanent stat boosts and equippable abilities; see Abilities and Mastery |
The Mastery Ring from the Digital Deluxe item pack boosts affinity with Visions while equipped, so it speeds the bond track and leaves the magicite bill untouched.
No magicite grades have been named beyond the Magicite Shard that ships with the pre-order pack. Square Enix has not published how much magicite each stage costs, what each stage adds in numbers, whether an awakening can be undone or reassigned, or whether all 26 Visions can be awakened. For the full roster, see List of Visions.
