Octopath Traveler lands on Nintendo Switch today

I’m taking a fiver after writing this and heading to the store to snag it for myself.

In Octopath Traveler, players will meet eight unique travellers each with their own personal story to discover. By using the characters’ special abilities, known as Path Actions, players can interact with the vast world and employ advanced tactics using the Boost system in engaging turn-based battles.

Octopath Traveler is available for Nintendo Switch, as a digital download via Nintendo eShop, and as a physical version at retail. Also available from today is the Octopath Traveler: Traveler’s Compendium Edition, a special edition of the game that includes a stylised pop-up book, a helpful map for your adventure and a replica coin based on the in-game currency.

Players can also try the game for free with the Prologue Demo, a special demo version available in Nintendo eShop that includes the first chapter of each traveller’s tale. Game progress saved in the demo can be carried over to the full game.

Prepare yourself for a grand adventure with the new Overview Trailer. Try the Prologue Demo of the game for free and transfer your game progress over to the full version of Octopath Traveler, launching 13th July for Nintendo Switch.
