Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin Playable Demo Announced
The gaming industry has many legendary franchises, with one of the most synonymous franchises for the RPG genre being the Final Fantasy franchise. Most gaming franchises that last decades have usually sought to reinvent themselves and expand the genres that they inhabit, and Final Fantasy has been no exception. One surprising new iteration for the series revealed last year is Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, which opts to focus on the perspective of a villain in the world of Final Fantasy. Now, Square Enix has announced that they have released a Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin playable demo ahead of the game’s launch.
PlayStation has released new information about Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin on their official blog, after first showcasing the game on their recent PlayStation State of Play digital presentation. The demo consists of the first three stages of the game, up to the Western Keep. Multiplayer modes will also be made available with the demo, and save file progress can be transferred from the demo to a player’s purchase of the full game when it launches. The demo has been made available now for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 users.
More details about Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin have been revealed by PlayStation as well. The full game is estimated to take around 40 hours of gameplay to complete, and has a variety of difficulty settings for the player to use. This ranges from a Story mode, which allow players to navigate the story with no worries about needing to meet the game’s challenges, to the Action and Hard difficulty settings bringing the full force. There is also a new job system that builds upon the classic piece of Final Fantasy games. This game will be quite a departure for the series, while also being fairly true to the feel of Final Fantasy. So, it won’t be a complete Stranger to Paradise.
