PS Plus Extra subscribers can look forward to playing Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origins as part of the December 2023 games lineup. This is based on a new leak that suggests it is being added soon.
While Sony hasn’t disclosed the official list of games that will be added to PS Plus Extra, a survey sent by them on the PS Stars app appears to list the game as being playable. The survey for PS Stars lists some of the games that are eligible for the rewards campaign and among them, Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin stands out because it is not available on PS Plus Extra.
PS Stars is a promotional campaign by Sony that offers rewards for those who perform specific tasks, like playing a game, getting a platinum trophy, buying something from the PlayStation Store, and so on. For December, there is a reward for playing games including Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated, Sea of Stars, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, and Trials Rising.
PS Plus Extra games lineup for December 2023 hasn’t been released yet, but we do know some of the games that will be leaving in December, and the upcoming month, January 2024. Sony usually drops the games for PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers in mid-December so the official announcement should not be that far away.
Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is an action RPG that is a part of the popular Final Fantasy series. It was developed by Team Ninja of Koei Tecmo and published by Square Enix to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the Final Fantasy franchise. The game acts as a prequel to the original Final Fantasy game for the NES, set in an alternative universe. It follows the journey of a group of characters who are transported to a fantasy world to fight against an evil entity called Chaos.
The game was launched in March 2022 and is available on a variety of platforms including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
