Game Overview

"Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent" is a fantastic turn-based JRPG mobile game that can be played for free on Android and iOS devices. The game is set in a brand-new story that takes place several years ago on the continent of Orstera in the world of "Octopath Traveler." You can choose from three different influences: wealth, power, or fame, which determine the original storyline.

As you embark on your journey, you'll meet eight main characters from the previous games and many new characters as the game progresses. You'll compete with NPCs and experience a variety of heartwarming, heavy, and joyful scenarios.

Since its release on the Nintendo Switch in 2018, the "Octopath Traveler" series has sold over 4 million copies worldwide and gained high recognition among multiplayer JRPG players on multiple platforms.

Octopath Traveler Champions of the Continent is the latest addition to the series, carefully crafted over five years. It inherits some familiar designs from previous games while also being optimized and adapted to better suit mobile devices. Whether or not you have played the previous games, you can easily get started with this one.

After becoming a hit in Japan, "Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent" is set to reignite the JRPG craze in Southeast Asia on December 7, 2023.

It is a mobile game that offers a perfect gaming experience for free. Unlike the console version, it's free to play. The game combines 2D pixel-style character models with 3D environments created by UE4, which gives it high-quality graphics and a retro feel. The controls are easy to use, and the skill effects are gorgeous, making the game more engaging. The game's soundtrack, overseen by the series' composer Yasunori Nishiki, was performed live and was nominated for Best Score/Music in The Game Awards 2018. The game also has Japanese dubbing, featuring famous voice actors like Kaito Ishikawa, Aoi Yuki, and Sawashiro Miyuki. The voice acting brings the characters to life, making for a top-tier audio-visual experience during gameplay.

The game features eight different jobs: Warrior, Dancer, Merchant, Scholar, Apothecary, Thief, Hunter, and Cleric. Players can choose their desired jobs and characters to upgrade based on their preferences or character traits. In contrast to the console version, which only allowed a 4-person party, the mobile version has an increased party size of 8. This allows players to experiment with more job synergies and combat strategies. Whether you're a fan of JRPGs and their stories or a strategic player who enjoys turn-based combat and upgrades, "Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent" is an outstanding game worth trying.
