Looks like we’re in for some more “HD-2D”. Gematsu reported that Octopath Traveler was rated in Korea for PC. With no word on dates or even a western release.
Octopath Traveler is the first entry in a brand-new IP from Square Enix. Originally released in July 2018 for the Nintendo Switch. The game employs a unique graphical style that is part of its charm and can even be considered its own character in the game which already has 8 protagonists. The game reviewed well and is loved by fans of traditional JRPG’s who feel that the game perfectly marries the feel and look of older games like Chrono Trigger or Xenogears yet also feels contemporary.
A prequel has been announced Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent and is in development for smartphones. As well as a full-fledged sequel although details on that one are much more scarce. I personally sank over 100 hours into the game and am looking forward to a possible PC release.
