Nintendo Switch Xbox Series X Xbox One j Playstation 4 IOS iPhone Android Playstation 5 PC Windows

Octopath Traveler is a stunning tilt-shifted art style RPG with a deep battle system that makes every encounter an exercise in thoughtful strategizing. The game has beautiful visuals, with realistic sand, snow and water and lighting effects which create a dreamlike world. The eight different tales are well-written and voice acted.


What we like:
  • Beautiful visuals and animations
  • Deep battle system
  • Compelling stories
  • Job system for character customization
  • Fast-paced combat focused on exploiting enemy weaknesses
What could be improved:
  • Too little interaction between character's stories
  • Side quests not worth it
