Octopath Traveler is a turn-based RPG developed by Square Enix and Acquire exclusively for Nintendo Switch. The game uses a curious combination of 16-bit aesthetics and modern visual effects like bloom that the developer calls “HD-2D”.

The game features eight playable adventurers (hence “Octopath”) such as Warrior, Merchant, Apothecary, or Dancer, each with their own unique ability that can be used in battles or when interacting with NPCs, and a distinct story to follow. The path the player pursues is said to determine where their adventure ends.
