The July Nintendo Direct was somewhat dull, but it did highlight a few key releases. One standout was Octopath Traveler 0, a prequel in the Octopath series that updates its mobile game and is set to launch on PC and consoles on December 4, 2025. Even though the announcement was during a Nintendo Direct, players with current or past-generation consoles or capable PCs will be able to play the game later this year.
If you’re eager for Octopath Traveler 0, pre-orders are already open. There are three editions available, each with different pre-order bonuses to consider depending on where you plan to play. The game is priced at $50 for the standard edition, making 2025 a year that features many $50 games, including Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Split Fiction.

On Nintendo Switch 2: Physical copies of Octopath Traveler 0 will be released as game-key cards, as the game’s size only needs about 5GB of storage. This is due to Nintendo’s hardware policy, which currently offers only a 64GB cartridge size for third-party developers. So, most Switch 2 titles will be digital or game-key cards, with exceptions like Cyberpunk 2077, which takes up most of the storage space.
