OCTOPATH TRAVELLER COMPENDIUM EDITION LIMITED EDITION FOR NINTENDO SWITCH

Release: 13 July 2019

The Octopath Traveler's Compendium Edition includes:

- The Octopath Traveler game for Nintendo Switch.
- A reversible map of the world of Orsterra.
- A replica of the Orsterra coin.
- A 3D pop-up book with compartments.

Begin your journey as one of eight protagonists, each with their own talent, origin and goal. Where will the journey begin? Who will join the party? And where will you go next? All these decisions and many more are entirely in the player's hands.

Each character has an exclusive Path Action that they can use to interact uniquely with the people they meet. For example, the warrior Olberic can challenge almost anyone to a duel. By doing so, he can unmask a villain and bring them to justice, or force someone to get out of his way. The dancer Primrose, on the other hand, can allure others into following her. With this ability, she can locate someone who has gone missing and bring them back, or lure her enemies into a trap. She can even call upon an allured character to help her in battle!

This game combines classic turn-based combat with completely new mechanics. One of these is the boost system, which allows you to accumulate boost points each turn in battle. You can use them to dramatically increase the power of attacks and abilities, or to chain attacks together. You can concentrate attacks on an enemy's weak point to break their guard and land powerful blows while they are weakened. You can also help an ally in trouble. Identifying the ideal moment to use a boost could bring you victory.

The variety of tactics is extremely rich. Your creativity as a strategist will be rewarded!
