Mtn Dew buying guide for dat FFXIV swag (for those of you who ran out of the door like I did)
*Drink verification can
man I can’t wait to drink mountain dew out of my $5 Major General cup I spent $80 buying bottles of mountain dew to get.
You also need to check the label to ensure the codes have not expired.
There are places with old Xbox labelled Mountain Dew that will not redeem anymore.

A couple PSAs from experimentation after work yesterday…
- Only yellow caps for the special types are worth 200 pts currently.
- White caps, even if special types, are only 100 pts
- Blue caps have no code despite it saying code under every lid (going to contact mountain dew support about this one)
- You can not redeem the code until dawntrail drops, so getting done in one day is of no real benefit…
Wait, it’s not FF14 specific labeling? Why Xbox?
PLEASE CHECK OFFICIAL PROMO SITE https://www.mtndewgaming.com/
its where you enter codes and stuff not to mention find out the different flavors can offer 100 or 200 points each
I assume there’s specific FFXIV x Mtn Dew xbox packaging soon but my local places didn’t have it and only the xbox code ones worked,
There’s 2 other active promotions that I know of:
Baja blast 20th anniversary coins swag
Mountain Climbing Equipment points ( bought a can case just to try the code, does not cross over)
the points from these DO NOT COUNT/CROSS OVER.
oh and in case you’re planning on killing weeds with all that excess dew, i recommend getting diet if you don’t want ants
I bought 5 diet and 1 code red with the labelling shown in my pic, redeemed for zu mount. They emailed item code quickly but cannot redeem yet… I don’t know if these are limited or not
“PLEASE NOTE: This code cannot be redeemed on the Mog Station until early access for FINAL FANTASY XIV: Dawntrail has begun, which is scheduled to begin on Friday, June 28, 2024 at 2:00 a.m. (PDT). If attempting to redeem the code before then, you will receive an “invalid code” error message.”
EDIT: (thanks iamed!) apparently the xbox promo has gone on for SO long some codes might be expired - I would also double check the drink isn’t expired as well - check bottle like in the pic in link: https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/1ctqaw9/comment/l4edypf/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Just need 200 bottles for the exp or hoodie.
I’m gonna look like such a clown walking out of a store with a cartload of these.
Aww man, I don’t even drink soda and my walmart delivery guy brought me Frost Bite but it had no special labeling of any kind, explains why the bottlecaps have no code, this sucks :T
I can’t wait to fill my hot tub with mountain dew so I can get a plain white hoodie with a meteor symbol on it.
This is bad guide, but only because you didn’t include how retailer specific dews are 200 points vs the standard 100.
This more complicated than renewing your FFXIV sub

Appreciated! The wife and I were in the store wondering whether the Xbox promo was the right thing to buy. Thanks!
I got the 2 of the Xbox marked bottles, and the caps lacked a code of any kind, just 6 slightly raised numbers on the inside that definitely aren’t the code, because I tried them anyways to no success.
Gonna be emailing their support to ask about that. “Under every cap” my ass lol
Kinda nitpicky, but does anyone know if their sugar free versions have any of this labeling? I’ve been trying to cut back on drinking soda with sugar in it
Baja is the best flavor, I’m sad it’s not counted in.
I looked at the point marketplace and am having flashbacks to 90s-00s fundraising events in school where we could exchange making our relatives buy a shit-ton of wrapping paper for cheap rewards like inflatable chairs or a lava lamp.
