I'm afraid the jury's still out on that one.

A limited time demo, titled Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin Trial Version, was released the same day as the reveal, exclusively on PlayStation 5.[1]

Job system

Synopsis
Set in a "dark fantasy world", Jack and his companions claim to be Warriors of Light, though they harbour doubts about their place in the prophecy.[1]
Characters
- Jack, the player character, whose goal is to kill Chaos.
- Ash, one of Jack's companions.
- Jed, one of Jack's companions.
- Garland, a knight sent to the Chaos Shrine that claims to have become Chaos.
Development
Tetsuya Nomura came up with the concept for Stranger of Paradise around the time after the release of Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy, and united that concept with a series of Final Fantasy games he was ideating that were focused around "the story of an angry man". Nomura considered it a challenge to find a middle ground for the title, between "mature" and "stylish". [1]
Reception
Upon its reveal, Stranger of Paradise received slight mockery for its dialogue,[2] with publications citing its tone as "super-edgy"[3] and "so bad it's good".[4]
