A 2018 turn-based RPG by Acquire and Square Enix following eight travelers across the continent of Orsterra, told through HD-2D pixel art with cinematic depth.
Concept
Players pick one of eight protagonists, including thief Therion and scholar Cyrus, and recruit the others as travel companions. Each character follows a self-contained four-chapter story.
Combat
The Break and Boost system rewards exploiting enemy weaknesses with weapon and elemental attacks. Saving up BP for a single huge turn defines the rhythm of boss fights.
Legacy
Octopath Traveler popularized HD-2D, the art style mixing 16-bit sprites with modern lighting and depth-of-field effects. Square Enix has since used HD-2D for Triangle Strategy, Live A Live, and the upcoming Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake.
