E3 2018: New Octopath Traveler demo available tomorrow
We’re just about a month out from Octopath Traveler’s release, and Square Enix has thrown together a little something to help you decide if you’re picking it up — or to start a little early.
The new Octopath Traveler demo will allow you to try out a number of different classes while you play through an early part of the game, and once the full game releases, your progress and choices in the demo will carry over. Octopath Traveler is scheduled to launch on the 13th of July.
Check out the description and trailer below.

Eight travelers. Eight adventures. Eight roles to play in a new world brought to life by Square Enix. And now, you can enjoy all of them in the new demo available on Nintendo eShop.

Then, carry your choices and adventure into the main game with save data transfer.Use each character’s special abilities in and out of battle.
