  • The winner will receive a Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin Bomber Jacket

• The second challenge is to unlock all 27 Jobs. This involves unlocking every Job in the game as quickly as possible, however you can.
  • This challenge will run from March 28 at 6:00 pm BST/10:00 am PDT, until March 29 at 6:00 pm BST/10:00 am PDT
  • The winner will receive a Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin Bomber Jacket

• The final challenge is to get as far as you can in the game in an hour. Start the game from the ‘Illusion at Journey’s End’ level, and get through as many missions as you can in an hour.
  • This challenge will run from March 29 at 6:00 pm BST/10:00 am PDT, until March 30 at 6:00 pm BST/10:00 am PDT
