Since its release in 2018, Octoptah Traveler has been pulling players into their unique story that branches off into eight different narratives, which is something that rarely, if ever, happens in video games. The game was a huge hit upon release, and while there is no official sequel released, developers still have ways to continue their story through some other outlets.
Octopath Traveler: Ruler of the Continent is a prequel story that will release on smartphones as an RPG. Not too much is known of how the game will be as of yet; however, it is confirmed that it is set some years before the original game, and players will be able to choose one of three characters to follow.
Recently, a brand new story trailer for the game was released that gives a look at what players can expect from the new game. The visuals for the game are also reminiscent of Square Enix's other hit franchise, Final Fantasy.
With the game coming later this month, will you be downloading it on release? We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments section below, and don't forget to check out the new trailer!
The game is set on the same Orsterra continent as the original game, but is set a few years before the start of the story.
Octopath Traveler: Ruler of the Continent launches on iOS and Android, in Japan, on October 28th!
