Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is heading to Steam.
]]>Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is no stranger to downloadable expansions, with the Trials of the King DLC launching back in July to a mixed audience. For a start, it was locked behind the hardest difficulty in the game, Bahamut.
]]>On July 20, we get to continue the story of Jack Garland and his unlikely bunch of allies in Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. Following on from the events of the main game, you have now assumed the mantle of Chaos, and as such there are some very familiar faces coming to challenge you in the DLC.
]]>If, like me, you can't get enough of the unlikley collaboration of publisher Square Enix and developer Team Ninja, you're probably counting down the days until the new Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin downloadable content.
]]>Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin has difficulty modes. So, if you're just playing through the game to experience the (admittedly awful) story, you can just hit Casual mode and then dilute it even further with Story mode. But if you're hungry for a real challenge, there's Hard and Chaos modes to sink your teeth into, too.
]]>Final Fantasy turns 35 this year, and Square Enix has lined up a bunch of stuff to celebrate the series’ birthday. The biggest and most obvious piece of the celebration so far is Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, a new spin-off that’s both forward and backward-looking at once.
]]>It's Chaos out there. But you knew that already, didn't you? Team Ninja and Square Enix's latest baffling collaboration – Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin – launches soon, and today a slew of reviews from across the industry have gone live. And the scores osciallte as wildly as you'd expect for a mid-budget final Fantasy spin-off.
]]>I am unapologetically a fan of the Nicholas Cage and John Travolta movie, Face/Off. Something about the unbelievable dance between lawman and outlaw Freaky Friday-ing their way into each other’s lives is endlessly watchable, despite its shaky premise and questionable performances. Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin might well be the Face/Off of games, then. It’s stupid, the performances are laughably bad, the levels are irritating, the gear system is convoluted, and the bosses can flit from unmemorable to infuriating. So why the hell can’t I put it down?
]]>PlayStation held its first State of Play event of 2022 on March 9, and the vast majority of the titles we saw announced or teased hailed from Sony's development partners in Japan.
]]>Another demo for Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin has been made live this evening, as Sony showed off more of the game at the March 2022 State of Play showcase.
]]>Like many others right now, I have been having an absolute blast getting stuck deep in Elden Ring and the many challenges it presents. If you thought Margit was tough, hooo boy, you won’t believe what FromSoftware has cooked up elsewhere in the game.
]]>The latest trailer for Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin confirmed that the game will launch on March 18, 2022 and also appears to confirm that the title will be an Epic Games Store exclusive at launch.
]]>Square Enix's TGS 2021 show just wrapped up, and one of the bigger highlights has been a new trailer for Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. Outside of showing off a new slice of gameplay, the trailer also revealed the game's release date.
]]>Last week, I got to play Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin again, playing a new build that follows on from the publicly-released trial version from a couple of months ago. This new build of the game has a fair amount to offer, too. For one, it features many improvements and tweaks based directly on fan feedback from the first trial. Second, it dives a little deeper into many of the game’s features, in particular offering a deeper look at some of the available jobs including ‘advanced’ job classes. There’s also more story intrigue, a new party member, and other curious considerations.
]]>There's going to be quite a lot to digest at this year's Tokyo Game Show, and Square Enix wants to make sure you're primed and ready to learn more about chaos before the event kicks off from October 1.
]]>Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin's concept is based on Final Fantasy 1, but is a story all its own.
]]>It’s fair to say that Square Enix didn’t have the greatest E3 conference ever.
]]>It took a few days, but you can now actually play the Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin demo.
]]>Square Enix showed off Team Ninja's Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin during its E3 2021 presentation today.
]]>Square Enix and Team Ninja are working together on Final Fantasy Origin, a spin-off that's more in line with the likes of Dark Souls or Nioh than a classic RPG experience.
