Discover a challenging action RPG created from the collaboration of Team Ninja, Koei Tecmo and Square Enix.
Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin launches tomorrow on Xbox Series X|S. You’ll discover the dark beginnings of Final Fantasy’s first villain as you experience the series in a way you’ve never seen before.
Sure tropes and expectations will be undermined, so prepare to throw much of what you know about Final Fantasy out the window!
story
In this intense action role-playing game, you play as Jack, a hero on a mission. Jack and his companions have been tasked with bringing balance to the kingdom of Cornelia, a strange but familiar world plagued by the destructive forces of Chaos. Though your memories are fleeting, you know your mission: defeat Chaos at all costs. As you battle the darkness that engulfs the world, find your memories and discover the truth of this world…
Fight your way through
Countless scary monsters are waiting for you. Complete your missions by strategically adapting your real-time tactics to each situation. With abilities like Soul Shield, you can restore MP and even make enemy abilities your own! Use various action abilities to drain an enemy’s damage meter and finish them off with Soul Smash!
Jobs…the fun kind, anyway
There are dozens of different profession classes that you can experiment with to find your preferred playstyle. Experiment, tweak, and upgrade the different job classes to your heart’s content to find your ultimate power fantasy, then switch between your two favorite jobs on the fly at the touch of a button
What professions are there in the game? Well, this blog would never end if we went through them all, but here’s a taste:
- paladin: Restores HP as you fight and keep it up as this holy warrior deals maximum damage when smashing enemies with maximum HP.
- Dark Knight: On the other hand, there’s the Dark Knight, which unleashes amazingly powerful attacks at the cost of HP. They deal more damage the lower your HP gets, making this one of the highest potential damage output jobs in the game. High risk, high reward, only those who have courage have to apply.
- sage: Can’t decide between white or black magic? Then become wise and don the sage’s cloak and switch between light and dark while wiping out enemies with Ultima, which is (surprise) that ultimate magic in the game.
Customize your character
Raid dungeons and loot your enemies’ corpses to collect tons of armor, weapons, and gear. Change your appearance and play the game with each piece of gear that has different possible combinations for job class affinities or special effects. By completing missions or scrapping unneeded loot, you can craft, upgrade, and specify your way to victory. (and a stylish win to boot)
Team up with friends
Play the game in a group of up to 3 players in online co-op multiplayer, face off against raid bosses, explore special co-op dungeons and get unique loot. And no worries about loot sniffing here, the spoils of war are dropped individually for each player.
Choose your difficulty
While it’s always cool to get Gud, not everyone is a pro at action combat! Customize your experience by choosing your preferred game mode. If you want to focus on the plot, choose Story mode. Opt for a more balanced experience for action, for a sweaty challenge for hard. Finally, for the hardcore among us… chaos awaits.
