If you don’t care about portability, PS5 is the best console version, and unlike some ports on it that just go for a performance and resolution bump, Octopath Traveler 2’s DualSense haptic feedback shows more care than usual was put into this release.
#OCTOPATH TRAVELER DEMO 2 PORTABLE#
If you value portable play above everything and are wondering what console to get Octopath Traveler 2 on, the Switch is the way to go. The PS5 version also has a lot better post-processing, better texture filtering, and looks plainly much better. Since this is a prologue demo, I can’t confirm if the final game will have PS5 Activity Cards support, but the demo does not as of this writing. It feels amazing, and is better than the HD Rumble implementation which is already great. Just like Tactics Ogre: Reborn, Octopath Traveler 2 has DualSense haptic feedback support.
I played it on my 1440p monitor and it continued to impress me as I tried each character’s opening hour of the story while trying to decide who to pick for the final game. Octopath Traveler 2 on PS5 looks gorgeous.

Octopath Traveler 2 on Switch also has good HD Rumble support. This is something you expect by now in games on Switch, but it was worth noting since the original didn’t support it. It does support video capture unlike the original game.

It still looks soft on a 1080p display and isn’t native resolution handheld with its 30fps target.
Team Asano has improved how its games look on Switch with each new release, and Octopath Traveler 2 looks gorgeous, especially on the OLED screen. Octopath Traveler 2 looks and runs as you’d expect on Nintendo Switch.
Having played Octopath Traveler on Nintendo Switch, my laptop, Xbox Series X (through Xbox One backwards compatibility), and Steam Deck over the years, I was curious to see if the Switch version of Octopath Traveler 2 would have any improvements over the original and how the PS5 version would fare.
