We're just days away from the release of Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, the appropriately weird reimagining of the beginnings of the iconic Final Fantasy franchise. If you're looking forward to the action-RPG but haven't preordered your copy just yet, you can save on your preorder at Walmart and GameStop right now.

Walmart has the Xbox version of the game discounted to $50 right now, while GameStop is offering the PlayStation edition for the same price. If you order soon from Walmart, you can get free release-day delivery arriving this Friday, March 18. GameStop promises delivery "on or shortly after release day."

Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin takes place in the same world as the first Final Fantasy game and features a more methodical approach to combat than recent Final Fantasy action-RPGs. It earned a 7/10 in our Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin review.

"Still, while it might be confusing and memey, disjointed and weird, Stranger of Paradise is also a lot of fun," critic Phil Hornshaw wrote. "It's full of cool combat with a wide variety of options, and a job system that lets you customize your playstyle or just try out what feels like 30 different ones. Its challenge makes every fight a battle of skill, while also giving you the tools to feel like a ludicrously powerful Final Fantasy badass. And despite being bizarrely delivered and wildly strange, there is a delight in uncovering what the hell is actually going on in the game's story and the weird ideas it brings to bear on the Final Fantasy series."
