There were some nice surprises during the Nintendo Direct on Tuesday September 13, 2022 and clearly the announcement of Octopath Traveler 2 was one of them. A sequel that many expected, especially since the first episode, released in 2018, seduced both the press and the players. Square Enix still publishes and develops the game in-house, and the idea of resuming its retro pixelated graphics in HD 2D has been renewed. To our delight of course, because visually, it's really pleasant to watch. Like the first episode, Octopath Traveler 2 plays with different planes and perspectives, with this game of focal length that works like thunder. We obviously don't know much about the game at the moment, except that the gameplay will resume what was done in the first episode. On the story side, we will find ourselves in the world of Solistia, where we will meet eight new travelers. Hikari the swordsman, Agnéa the dancer, Partitio the merchant, Osvald the scholar, Throné the thief, Temenos the priest, Ochette the huntress and finally Castto the apothecary. All will meet at some point and it will be necessary to wait until February 24, 2023 to find this atmosphere so atypical.
