The day and night cycle and each character’s path actions were displayed, and the dual abilities seem to bring more depth to the overworld. The combat features the delightful system from the first title but is enhanced to provide more depth and strategy. Finally, the stunning 2.5D art style returns and looks better than ever.

Overall, Octopath Traveler II looks to be more of the same and more than Octopath Traveler. A new story, new characters, and so much more await returning and new fans in this highly-anticipated JRPG.
