I played the first Octopath Traveller and liked it enough to want to play the sequel. It was a cute and relaxing little JRPG with an interesting article. I found the story a bit lacking, but not enough to be turned off by it.
Take control of unique heroes as you make your way through their stories. You are offered enough choices in your playthrough that the game should stay fresh. Some stories were better than others, but if the sequel is anything like the first, it will be a relaxing journey. I might be busy with Digimon World: Next Order when this game releases, but I plan to pick it up when I need something casual.
Octopath Traveller 2 is set to release on February 24, 2023, on the Nintendo Switch and the Playstation 4 & 5. You can preorder yours today! For those considering a physical copy, try using my affliate links: Switch, PS4, PS5
Square Enix also offers a collectors bundle

I saw a preview on the PlayStation YouTube channel. Reminds me of the old Zelda and Final Fantasy games.

I can see that. While the combat system is a bit more unique, it has elements of both. I liked it because it was a bit more casual than Zelda and Final Fantasy, but I the story isn’t as good.
