Can confirm it not being available in the US.

Also, for reference, the only DLC available to the US (and presumably all other listed regions) is Endwalker.
The official FFXIV support page states the following:

Please note, each expansion does not need to be purchased separately. FINAL FANTASY XIV: Endwalker ($39.99 USD) includes all prior expansions with the purchase, including Shadowbringers, Stormblood, and Heavensward.

I’m currently a Free Trial user. Can I take advantage of this offer, if the Starter Edition is required to play Stormblood?
You can obtain your free digital copy of Stormblood on your preferred platform during the promotional period of March 27 – May 8, 2023. However, if you wish to access Stormblood content, you will need to purchase the Starter Edition of FINAL FANTASY XIV, which will require you to upgrade your Free Trial account to a full Service Account, with all its associated benefits. The Starter Edition comes with a 30-day free subscription period. Once the 30-day free subscription period has elapsed, you will need to pay a monthly subscription to continue accessing FINAL FANTASY XIV Online.

I'ts intentional, you can't play unless you pay tho. (And you shouldn't pay until completing free trial AFAIK)

If people are enjoying the free trail and know way before level 60 that they are going to want to continue playing I would say buy it ASAP as having access to retainers and the marketplace is huge. Some may view the social features like being able to chat with others and joining an FC as not that important, but tbh if you have no interest in social features you might as well skip the game and get a single player FF game.

Well... that depends on the person I suppose. I played FFXIV up till the end of Shadowbringers and enjoyed the story immensely without engaging in social features whatsoever (apart from the mandatory need to queue up to do story trials and the like but I dont talk to anyone at all doing them). I love their addition for npc parties in Shadowbringers for weirdos like me so I can explore the dungeons with my fellow Scions and see the sights without disturbing anyone else haha...

For anyone interested in getting the Endwalker Standard Edition DLC it's only $19.99 (50% off) atm. Sale ends within the hour.

The Endwalker Collector’s Edition is $29.99 (50% off) atm as well. This also ends within the hour.

Yes, but what I wanna know is how.
Last I heard steam doesn't let us claim DLCs without the base game.

It worked for me, also don't have the base game (and I don't think I'll get it, just curious if it worked).

Sorry about that. English is not my first language.
Now that you know the question, do you by any chance know the answer?

I don't know the answer for sure, but I think the game has a free trial. So the demo might be a F2P game in disguise.

Doesn't that mean that we'll lost the dlc after the trial period is over?

Having played a lot of FFXIV and going through all the expansions(off steam client), I can tell you stormblood is the worst out of all of them, easily, if anyone wonders, but free is free.
