Octopath Traveler, the Square Enix RPG featuring eight protagonists each with their own separate but converging stories, is getting a sequel.
Update: A Japanese trailer confirms that Octopath Traveler 2 will not be a Switch exclusive, and will arrive at launch for Switch, PC (via Steam) and PS5/PS4.
Announced at today’s Nintendo Direct, Octopath Traveler 2 will feature eight new protagonists, travelling through the world of Solistia – including merchants, scholars, thieves, and more.
We gave the first Octopath Traveler a 9.3 at launch for its “beautiful style and outstanding take on traditional turn-based combat” that “pushed JRPGs forward rather than paying homage to the greats.”
