Note: Developers have chosen to reveal some key plot details ahead of the game’s release, but if you’d prefer to experience the story cold, be warned there are spoilers ahead. Final Fantasy Origin already looks much better after just a few more months of development. These demos allow developer Team Ninja and publisher Square Enix to chart new ground within the franchise. This isn’t your typical Final Fantasy game either. “He’s not your typical Warrior of Light.” “The protagonist is essentially the villain as well,” Director Daisuke Inoue tells Inverse. Not is the boss of the Chaos Shrine a new party member, but there’s also a wild revelation here about the game’s main character. Some new narrative revelations also make the whole experience far more intriguing. The daunting structure retains the same level design, but the visuals are more stimulating when you can actually see them. Ahead of Tokyo Game Show 2021, Square Enix has given the game a shocking overhaul, with a new demo that transforms the once dreary castle into a well-lit dungeon. Now, sunbeams shine through the once dark and disgusting Chaos Shrine’s windows from the first Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin demo.

Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin needed a bit of lightening up.
