Octopath Traveler is set to bring some classic RPG goodness to the Nintendo Switch when it releases on July 13. Currently, we’ve got our preview up and we’re very impressed with how the game is shaping up from our time spent playing thus far.
For those unfamiliar with Octopath Traveler, the title comes from developer Square Enix and tells the stories of eight unique protagonists. Their paths intertwine as you embark on your adventure in the game, but you’ll have to choose which character you want to have as the focal point of your playthrough and that you’ll be controlling.
This is just the first of many tricky decisions you’ll have to make in Octopath Traveler, and so we’ve opted to give you a helping hand with this guide wiki. We’ve broken down everything from the basic information on Octopath Traveler, all the way through to explanations on the more complex elements of the game.
