The first Octopath Traveler has been rated for PS4 and PS5 in Taiwanmaking you think that it has finally happened also coming to PlayStation consolegiven that it is strangely missing on these platforms compared to the others and also compared to the second chapter.
Obviously this cannot be taken as an official confirmation of the game’s arrival on PS4 and PS5, but rating boards can often be considered reliable sources on releases, and the one in Taiwan in particular has often correctly anticipated any announcements from the software house.
News in this regard could therefore arrive in the next period, considering that we are in a week that should be full of conferences and announcements on new releases for the videogame market.
The strange path of Octopath Traveler
The Octopath Traveler series, in fact, followed a bizarre route regarding release platforms, also a reflection of Square Enix’s sometimes difficult to understand approach to exclusives, in a certain sense.
The first chapter was initially released as an exclusive Nintendo Switch console, then it also reached PC and Xbox and was also released on Game Pass, but strangely it never reached PS4 and PS5. Even more strangely, Octopath Traveler 2 was released on Sony consoles, again on PC and Nintendo Switch but has never arrived on Xbox, at least for now.
We are therefore faced with the strange case of a series that has the first chapter with exclusives alternating between Xbox and PlayStation, but it is likely that the situation is destined to change shortly. Just in the last few days, a rumor has emerged that Octopath Traveler 2 will be arriving on Xbox Game Pass soon, with this other one contrasting with the possible arrival of the first Octopath Traveler on PS4 and PS5.
