On July 20, we get to proceed the story of Jack Garland and his unlikely bunch of allies in Stranger of Paradise: Closing Fantasy Origin. Following on from the occasions of the primary sport, you have got now assumed the mantle of Chaos, and as such there are some very acquainted faces coming to problem you within the DLC.
Named “Trials of the Dragon King”, we realized again in June that the brand new content material will embody new jobs, weapons, equipment, and a brand new class of kit, in addition to new areas, tales, and challenges, too.
However sufficient of that; you are not hear to study which new hats you may equip, and the way silly you may make Jack and co. look with all the brand new loot. No, you are right here to be taught extra about The Warrior of Gentle and Bahamut – two new bosses that you will have to finest to be able to transfer ahead in Jack’s harmful (however fairly sensible) plan.
The Warrior of Gentle – the protagonist of the primary sport is rocking – has come to defeat Jack, in an encounter that you simply’d have little question performed a model of for those who’ve ever performed the sport that began all of it off. Plus, the eponymous Dragon King itself – the imposing Bahamut – is keen to lend its energy. However provided that you may defeat it. Bahamut has sweepers, ranged blasts, devastating melee hits, and extra. Anticipate Mega Flare to do you in, in a single go, too. Cannot wait to attempt it.
In the event you pay attention fastidiously, you may hear the Ship Theme from Closing Fantasy initially of the trailer, then the Matoya’s Cave theme on the finish, too. Beautiful throwbacks.
Elsewhere within the DLC, we have realized that you’ll the equip the Pilgrim, Evoker and Summoner jobs, and that, staves have been added as a brand new weapon sort. As a bonus, there is a model new issue, too: within the growth, gamers can interact in a brand new issue stage referred to as, fittingly, Bahamut. You will want to finish the primary sport to play at this stage.
We even have “Wanderer of the Rift” and “Completely different Future” growth packs within the works. I would put cash on the previous being associated to Gilgamesh ultimately.
Stranger of Paradise: Closing Fantasy Origin is accessible now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Sequence X/S, Xbox One, and PC by way of Epic Video games Retailer, and the DLC will launch on all platforms July 20.
