Promises of a GTA 6 Rival Game Called Paradise Turn Out to Be a Scam

Imagine a game that claims to rival GTA 6, promising a massive open world, cutting-edge AI, and even a crypto economy

The hype is real. A game that claims to rival GTA 6, boasting a massive open world, cutting-edge AI, and even a crypto economy where players can earn real money. Sounds like the dream, right?

Well, that’s exactly what Paradise is selling. Developed by Ultra Games Limited, this ambitious project has certainly got people talking about it—but for all the wrong reasons.

Instead of excitement, Paradise has been raising serious red flags. From fake partnerships and stolen assets to shady crypto integration, multiple sources suggest this game might be a well-disguised scam.

Despite its high-production trailers, investigations have uncovered questionable marketing tactics, false claims, and a complete lack of transparency from the developers.

In this article, I’ll be diving deep into:

By the end, you’ll have all the evidence you need to decide for yourself whether Paradise is the next big gaming revolution—or just another attempt to trick unsuspecting players and investors.

3 Red Flags in Paradise Game’s Trailers

When I first saw the trailers for Paradise, I’ll admit—they looked impressive. The game was pitched as a GTA 6 rival, boasting a massive open world, AI-driven gameplay, and even a way to earn real money through its PAR token.

But after digging deeper, I started noticing things that didn’t add up.

From fake partnerships to stolen assets, the more I looked, the clearer it became that Paradise isn’t what it claims to be.

1. False Advertising & Misleading Marketing

The first major red flag? Paradise flat-out lied about who they’re working with.

Earlier this year, they claimed to have a partnership with AMD.

However, AMD confirmed to IGN that they aren’t involved with the game in any capacity.

Paradise also claimed to be exhibiting at Gamescom 2023.

Yet again, this wasn’t true. Gamescom organizers confirmed that Paradise wasn’t an exhibiting company at the event.

Either way, it’s clear that their messaging is inconsistent at best—and deceptive at worst.

2. Suspicious Use of Pre-Made Assets

Another thing that stood out? The trailers make the game look like an original, high-budget project, but it’s really just a sloppy asset flip.

Multiple people online have pointed out that Paradise appears to be stealing assets from other games. For example, one user on ResetEra noticed that a character model in the Paradise trailer appears to be stolen from the game Tower of Fantasy.

My first thought was—wait, so if they’re straight up stealing assets from other companies and committing trademark infringement, wouldn’t these companies sue them?

And the answer is, yes, yes they would. If they could find them. And this brings me to the next point.

3. Who is Behind Paradise? Investigating Ultra Games Limited

At this point, it’s clear that Paradise isn’t the revolutionary game it claims to be. But the question remains: who is actually behind it?

That’s where things get even shadier. Ultra Games Limited—the so-called developer of Paradise—seems to barely exist. When I tried digging into the company, I found almost no verifiable information. No real history, no track record of past games, and no reason to trust them.

Here’s what I uncovered.

Lack of Company Transparency

The first red flag? There’s no official website for Ultra Games Limited.

When people tried tracking down their company address.

And what about their past games?

At this point, I was convinced Ultra Games was just a front for something shady, but it gets even worse when you look at the only public figure attached to the project.

The “Robert Lee” Mystery

The only person who has ever spoken on behalf of Paradise is “Robert Lee”—a supposed representative of Ultra Games Limited.

At first, he seemed to be the only real person connected to the project. He even appeared in a video promoting the game. But then, out of nowhere, all his content disappeared.

This raises two big questions:

The way I see it, Robert Lee was either a made-up alias or just a paid actor used for promotional purposes. Once people started asking too many questions, the team behind Paradise wiped all traces of him from the internet.

When a game’s only known spokesperson mysteriously disappears, you know something isn’t right.

The Paradise (PAR) Token: A Crypto Pump-and-Dump?

One of the biggest red flags about Paradise isn’t just the game itself—it’s the PAR token, the cryptocurrency that was originally marketed as an integral part of the game's ecosystem.

Early on, the developers hyped it up as a play-to-earn token, claiming that players could earn real money by playing the game. But suddenly, mentions of the PAR token started disappearing from their website and promotional materials.
