Octopath Traveler captured our interest with its first tease before the Nintendo Switch launched and its sales are reflecting that early excitement. As of today, Nintendo has revealed that over one million units of JRPG Octopath Traveler have been sold globally.
In our review, we declared Octopath Traveler the JRPG that Nintendo Switch owners deserved. It's visual style channels the charm of classic JRPGs while exhibiting a polish afforded it by current technology. The turn-based combat features a surprising amount of depth, the game can be broken up into play sessions ideal for the Nintendo Switch, and players are getting a lot of bang for their buck when it comes to playtime.
