We’ve learned a PC port for Octopath Traveler is probably happening soon.
The news comes via a new rating over on the South Korean rating board, which lists the 2.5D throwback RPG for a Windows PC release.
The publisher on the release is Bandai Namco (they handle Square Enix releases in the non-Japan regions of Asia).
Here’s a rundown on the game:
Choose your fate. Eight stories await.
Eight travelers. Eight adventures. Eight roles to play in a new world brought to life by Square Enix. And now, you can enjoy all of them in the new demo. Step into the shoes and live the stories of each of the eight travelers and freely explore the world of Orsterra. Then, carry your choices and adventure into the main game with save data transfer.
Use each character’s special abilities in and out of battle. Break through enemy defenses by discovering and targeting weaknesses. Store Boost Points with each turn and then spend them at strategic times to strengthen abilities, chain attacks, or provide aid. Choose the path you wish to walk and discover what lies beyond the horizon.
