Jack Garland is the manliest man I’ve met in a long time. He’s the protagonist of Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, a new spinoff from Koei Tecmo studio Team Ninja (Nioh, Nioh 2) and Square Enix. Jack is on a mission to kill a monster called Chaos, and to those who doubt his quest he says, “Bullshit.” His grizzled face has a jawline sharp enough to cut through the most devastating of dragons, and he himself is so strong he can smash the heads of trolls and giant wolves alike. He’s extremely gruff, and yet, it’s precisely this manliness — combined with a metric fuck ton of loot found in the game — that prompted me to turn him into the world’s angriest barbie doll.

Like Team Ninja’s previous work, Stranger of Paradise thrusts you into souls-like action combat. As you play, you’ll send Jack and his friends through a series of labyrinthian levels set in underwater caves or on snow-capped mountains. As you fight through monster after monster, you’ll also unlock a litany of chests, along with a treasure trove of weapons, armor, and clothing for each party member.

Depending on how fast you progress through the levels, it’s possible to accumulate hundreds of items within a few hours of play. Stranger of Paradise has a full Final Fantasy-esque job system with the basic options being: Swordsman, Duelist, Swordfighter, Pugilist, Marauder, Ronin, Lancer, and Mage. There are 28 jobs in total, but you can max out the stats on the various jobs by equipping the right combination of specialized gear pieces like weapons, helmets, body armor, and accessories for your arms and legs. There are loads upon loads of outfit possibilities.
