Square Enix has released new artwork to celebrate the 3rd anniversary of turn-based HD-2D RPG Octopath Traveler II. The Octopath Traveler II 3rd anniversary artwork (shown above) was illustrated by character designer Akihiro Takamatsu. 

As of December 2025, the Octopath Traveler series has sold over 6 million copies sold worldwide. Octopath Traveler 0, alongside the original game and Octopath Traveler II, is available now for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. A Octopath Traveler 0 free demo is available now with save data transfers over to the full game. The Standard Edition costs $49.99, while the Digital Deluxe Edition costs $59.99.

Final Weapon previously reviewed Octopath Traveler 0 and gave it a 4.5/5 score, noting that the game “delivers the series’ most cohesive story yet, backed by its sharpest combat system and a surprisingly addictive town-building feature. By blending a focused narrative with a large, memorable cast and wrapping it all in gorgeous HD-2D visuals, it stands as both the strongest entry in the franchise and one of the best JRPGs in years.”

Octopath Traveler 0 was featured on the cover of Famitsu’s December 18 magazine issue, which released on December 4, 2025. The December 18 Famitsu issue includes a cover illustration by Octopath Traveler 0 character designer Naoki Ikushima, and the issue has a 21-page feature and interview with producer Hirohito Suzuki.
