Octopath Traveler Heading to Xbox with Upcoming Game Pass Titles

Octopath Traveler is coming to Xbox consoles, and it will be free for Xbox Game Pass Console and PC subscribers. Microsoft revealed the coming game on Xbox Wire while announcing the next batch of Game Pass titles. Octopath Traveler previously launched exclusively for Nintendo Switch in 2018 and eventually came to PC and Google Stadia later. The Square Enix RPG launches on Xbox and Game Pass simultaneously later this month, on March 25.

The company kicked off March by bringing a total of 20 Bethesda games to Game Pass and continued its streak by announcing Outriders’ simultaneous launch on the service. Undertale was revealed for the service yesterday, with the game making its Xbox debut today.
