Square Enix announced a new chapter of Octopath Traveler but it's probably not what fans of the series have been waiting for, as it's a prequel for platforms mobile devices. Octopath Traveler Champions of the Continent , this is the full title, was made for iOS and Android, and will be released in Japan during 2019. The game is described as a "Single Player Free to Play RPG" set in the world of Orsterra a few years before the events narrated in Octopath Traveler. The game maintains its distinctive HD 2D graphics by adding 3D CGI scenes and a control system suitable for the touch screen.
