The game will also be available at a permanently discounted price, meaning that going forward the game will no longer cost the price of a full title.

The title originally released on March 18, 2022, but will eventually release on Steam on April 6. Square Enix also claims that the game will be sold at a permanently discounted price. The Epic Game Store now lists the game at $40/£35, down from its $60/£50 launch price.

Three additional quests were included in the game’s post-launch: Trials of the Dragon King, Wanderer of the Rift, and Different Future. Trials of the Dragon King features Jack taking on the original Warriors of Light from classic Final Fantasy I and Dragon King Bahamut. In Different Future, Jack and friends meet Final Fantasy II’s main antagonist, The Emperor, and end with a potential tease of a Stranger of Paradise sequel that probably won’t come to fruition.
Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is a spin-off title from Square Enix’s prestigious role-playing game series. The game was developed by Team Ninja and featured the same hack-and-slash style of combat seen in other Team Ninja games like Nioh. Stranger of Paradise is about Jack, who wears modern clothes but finds himself in the fantasy world of the first Final Fantasy game. He teams up with people like him, with the sole purpose of stopping Chaos, no matter what.
