Square Enix has released both Octopath Traveler and Octopath Traveler II on Nintendo Switch 2, first as digital downloads on July 14, 2026, then as a physical bundle on October 1. The mobile title Champions of the Continent is running a Final Fantasy X collaboration from June 18 to August 13.
The two mainline Octopath Traveler games are now available on Nintendo Switch 2. Square Enix released digital versions of Octopath Traveler and Octopath Traveler II on July 14, 2026, at 5,478 yen each, down from 7,480 yen on other platforms. A digital bundle of both titles costs 6,820 yen. No upgrade path from the existing Switch versions is offered. A physical bundle followed on October 1 at the same 6,820 yen, with digital wallpapers through the Square Enix e-STORE and original stickers at Amazon.co.jp.
The digital launch coincided with the series' 8th anniversary, marked by a program on July 13. Square Enix says the series has sold over 7 million copies worldwide. The Switch 2 versions ship with improved frame rates and resolutions. The original games released in 2018 and 2023, and the HD-2D style introduced with the 2018 title has since appeared in the Dragon Quest I & II remakes and the upcoming Final Fantasy Resonance.
On mobile, Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent is running a Final Fantasy X collaboration from June 18 to August 13. Tidus, Yuna, and Auron appear as playable 5-star characters with Thief, Cleric, and Warrior job classes. A free Seal Box at the Web Ruby Shop guarantees one of the three. The event story is supervised by Motomu Toriyama with character supervision by Tetsuya Nomura, and runs in three parts. Collaboration weapons including Ultima Weapon, Nirvana, and Masamune drop from specific enemies in Record of Archfiends. A Cactuar companion is an event reward, and a quiz campaign during the collaboration livestream grants all players 800 Rubies. The event coincides with campaigns for 20 million downloads of the mobile title.
