Nintendo Switch & HUGE RPG News! Octopath Traveler 3, Zelda Echoes of Wisdom & MORE! (2024)

You have no 'news' on OC 3, just a bunch of guesses. What a clickbait.

The extra battles in Octopath 2 have the travelers from the first game use what look like dual techs from Chrono Trigger. That might be the selling point for Octopath 3. I would also love to see a sky setting since the first game was mostly land, and the second game had the sea and the boat. So flying around in an airship might be in Octopath 3 (also makes sense for a game with a classic JRPG feel) maybe they could also expand on the map by having multiple layers (sky and ground) like TotK.

Really sucks how Activision underestimates single-players. Despite Crash N-Sane Trilogy, Spyro: Reignited, & Crash 4 selling nearly 50 MILLION, they still think multiplayer is the way to go. So sad. Also, don't mind if Octopath 3 is Nintendo exlusive at the start, as long Sqaure takes way less time to port it to other platforms. I'm sure they've learned their lesson from FFXVI & Rebirth's underperformances.

triangle strategy 2 would be cool call it square strategy instead 😂

I think Square will put either Octo 3,Triangle 2 or a new Bravely game in February. they have a history of putting something out in the first quarter. I think it will be Switch one game, you can't ignore the established systems sold. I think they will do something new for Switch 2 release while using one of their IP already established.

I'm just finishing up Octopath Traveler 2. Fantastic story, fun combat, looks great, and even better music. Instant classic and one of my favorite RPGs.

I really hope they implement synergy abilities in Octopath Traveler 3!

I hope they will do OPT3 but actually introduce new classes. 2 was great but a little light on new things

I loved Crash 4, despite the obnoxious 106% requirements. Crash 5 getting cancelled is bad news.

The upcoming Zelda looks nice, but I likely not buy it day 1.
Metroid Prime 4 is looking really good, but I won't be buying it until a remaster of 2 and 3 come to Switch. I've only ever played the 1st Metroid Prime.
Not a Crash fan myself, but that wording the character dev used suggested Crash 5 is still coming, but won't be the Crash 5 that was originally being worked on. As in, they have changed direction with the game and fans will be upset with the direction they went.

i would really like to see Octopath Traveller Champions of the Continent on the switch and hoping to hear more in the future for a new game

Octo 3 should implement a lot of features like Sinergy Abilities between the Travelers, probably a Sky Travel vehicle (like in FF6), and I would love to see new starting classes or a rebuild for the classes we already are used to... I love the skills but I don't see the point in just reuse the same skills of the previous titles...
They should introduce a female Warrior and Scholar characters, considering that was the only ones that doesn't switch genders yet 😅
Would be nice see a story that envolves all characters since the beginning! Like a Crossed Path between all of them, not just two like we saw on 2... This crossed paths being needed to progress the chapters... But maybe I'm dreaming too high...

Oh snap Octopath 3?!?! I've been behind.
I think it will be revealed and announced at some Nintendo Direct showcase for Switch 2 but will be multiplatform for PS and Steam.

I hope Link is only playable in the intro section, or at most as an echo. I get people want the more traditional experience, but it's Zelda's game. Let the girl shine.

Looking at the box art... if Link is playable, then is Ganon playable, too?

Part of me feels liked it more of a comparative mention. Like “usually as link you would…. But as Zelda you…”

So what now Crash and Spyro back in to black hole 😢

So basically you want a link game.
I hope it’s just going to be sword+bow for the initial “defeat ganon” segment we see in the trailer

Oh damn mah girl Primrose back!!!

I like Octopath but i wish they would make another Bravely Default game.

It’s good to see this news! No Crash huh? Well I didn’t even play the newest one yet anyway. MS has it. O that’s why.

It’s beyond all understanding how we have all this talk about Metroid Prime 4 but nothing on at least a port for Metroid Prime 2 and 3. And I have a horrible feeling that those will come out on Nintendo Switch Online (GameCube) just so they can get more subscribers. And that sucks, man!

Awesome. Makes sense to have Link fighting his way too.

Metroid prime 4 and octopath traveler

Frame rate looks just as bad on LOZ

I just loved Zelda games I just like playing it nothing else matters to me

Link’s awakening IS a master piece

Damn dude motion sickness is real for FPSs. I never used to get them, I swear it’s as the graphics got better.

After beating the game, you'll be able to replay the game on a second playthrough using Link instead of Zelda.

I hope octopath traveler 3 changes the setting from medieval fantasy to something like sci-fi. Still turn based, but different setting. Else it'll get boring, i think.

hi OJ

Oouh 😏 maybe Zelda has to kill Link after failing to save him and then she can summon him Necro style to have him fight for her. Too dark?

octopath traveler is the best 2d rpg ever made

I dont think SE wants to do exclusives anymore given FF7s poor performance.

Crash Bandicoot and Spyro are joining Banjo-Kazooie and Hi-Fi Rush in the ever-expanding graveyard of franchises that Microsoft has abandoned, neglected or mismanaged.

Single player going away kid do i have a bottle of air to sell you

Another victim project of the Microsoft conglomeration.

activision only make stupid call of duty games
