The final trailer for Team Ninja’s Final Fantasy series spinoff Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin has been released by Square Enix. The video game, which is essentially a retelling of the original Final Fantasy video game with a twist in that the main protagonist, Jack Garland, is meant to be a version of Final Fantasy villain Garland, will be released on March 18th via the Epic Games Store for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, and PC.
As the teaser suggests, Jack Garland and his comrades believe they are a fresh version of the Warriors of Light and set out to complete the objectives familiar to fans of the first game: restoring the crystals’ light and conquering Chaos. However, given Garland’s final destiny, it’s evident that something more is at work. Below is the new Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin trailer for your viewing pleasure:
“The game is created so that you don’t have to necessarily be familiar with the original first Final Fantasy,” Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin producer Jin Fujiwara recently told Polygon. “If you do have an understanding of the original title, it might help kind of expand the lore that you’re familiar with.
We have our heroes, who believe that they are the Warriors of Light, but they turn out to be like the enemy, Garland. When you’re fighting the four different [fiends], how they came about is going to be depicted in Stranger of Paradise, so I think it’s not necessary but it does allow for a deeper experience into the game.”
Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin will be released on March 18th via the Epic Games Store for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, and PC.
