Play Octopath Traveler II for free ahead of the release

Octopath Traveler became a big hit due to its innovative storytelling mechanics. This take on the classic JRPG genre is an exciting adventure with multiple paths, awesome HD-2D pixel art graphics, and turn-based combats that modernizes the genre without diminishing any of its qualities. Its sequel aspires to deliver the same kind of experience, but it also adds new features that will make your adventure even more interesting. As its predecessor, Octopath Traveler II follows the stories of several separate characters in the world of Solistia, but this time, their paths will cross in unexpected, and exciting ways.

On the gameplay side, Octopath Traveler II maintains most of the features present in the previous game, including the turn-based combat system with its "Boosts" and "Breaks", but it also introduces "Latent Powers". These are special and very powerful abilities that each of the characters can unleash when they fill up a certain gauge during a battle.
