Last September, Square-Enix unveiled Octopath Traveler II, a spiritual sequel to the 2018 role-playing game in the sense that it will once again make us discover the stories of eight very distinct characters, but in a completely different context, with no apparent link between the two adventures. And this time the game is also coming out on home consoles from sony in addition to the Switch and PCs. The main novelties were then cited and the identity of the protagonists introduced. During the Nintendo Direct of that night, an announcement was madewhich is not surprising given the recent history of Square-Enix and a long trailer was released for the occasion.
In effect, the publisher offers a demo of Octopath Traveler II on theeShop of the Switch, the Playstation Store of the PS5 And PS4as well as on Steam for PCs. This Prologue is quite copious, auguring a good overall lifespan, since we can choose one of the eight protagonists and spend three hours discovering the beginning of his adventure, the backup can then be transferred to the commercial version that will be available February 24.
If this “HD-2D” experience appeals to you, it’s a good way to find out if you’ll like it. You can also pre-order the game on Amazon from €57.49.
