The news had been leaked a few days ago, but it is now official: both entries of the Octopath Traveler series are coming to Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass. Square Enix has reaffirmed its multi-platform strategy by making these games available to Xbox Game Pass subscribers as of yesterday.
Additionally, both games can be purchased by PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 owners. They are also available on PC via Steam.
For those unfamiliar, the Octopath Traveler series is an HD-2D JRPG where you play as eight different characters, each with their own story. You can choose the order in which you explore their stories.
The game has been highly praised by genre fans for its intricate narratives, stunning HD-2D graphics, and strategic turn-based combat.
