A new adventure is coming as Octopath Traveler 0 is announced

Square Enix went for a 1-2 punch to end the recent Nintendo Direct, first they hit with the brand new IP in The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, and then they went ahead and revealed a brand new entry in the Octopath Traveler series. Check out the announcement trailer for Octopath Traveler 0, which is releasing in December.

In this new game players will experience a story of restoration and retribution over the divine rings in an epic saga that unfolds across the realm of Orsterra. The game features returning core elements from the series, and–for the first time in series history–players will be able to customize their own protagonist and rebuild their hometown after it has been destroyed.

If the name Orsterra sounds familiar, that is because that is where the first game and the mobile game Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent are set. The story for this game actually builds upon the mobile game, but adds new story content where players rebuild their town, and reinterpreted story beats unfold throughout. Fans familiar with the series can enjoy the return of its iconic HD-2D art style, the ability to interact with other characters in various ways through Path Actions, and the Break and Boost battle system which can turn the tide of battle.

Check out the below message from the games Producer, to learn more about what the team are going with.

The game will release on December 4 for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Those who have save data from any of the following games on their system will get bonus items in the new game.
