That’s the same day as its Nintendo Switch release
I sayOctopath Traveler 2was a surprise announcement, but it’d actuallyleaked on ResetErajust before the Nintendo Direct stream began earlier this afternoon. The leaked image, taken from a GreenManGaming store page, showed pre-purchase options for Steam versions of Octopath Traveler 2. It’s not yet clear whether it will be available from other PC storefronts just yet, though, as Squeenix only mention Steam in their officialblog post.
Katharine both loved and hated the first game in herOctopath Traveler review. “It’s so frustrating, because there are so many things I love about Octopath Traveler in spite of its many, and really quite crippling flaws,” she said. “The music is just divine, the battle system is up there with the very best of the genre, and I’m both bemused and astounded by the level of detail Square Enix and fellow developers Acquire have put into all the backstories of the NPCs.”
