With a character creator that will let you make a bunny bro.

The fourth expansion for Endwalker, Square Enix have published system requirements and a benchmarking tool you can .

It comes with a character creator so that if you'd rather not see the default paladin bro in the benchmark you can make your hero, and it includes the option to make a male viera character, since Endwalker will let you play one of the previously gender-locked rabbitfolk as a man. 

The benchmark cutscene also highlights some of the additions coming with Endwalker, like the scholarly island of Old Sharlayan, which will be the new hub, and two new jobs: the Reaper. 

According to Square Enix, "This benchmark uses updated scoring criteria to for the increase in multiplayer content and provide a more accurate evaluation of how your computer will perform when running the latest version of the game."
