Octopath Traveler was abruptly delisted from the Nintendo Switch eShop last month, though amid confusing surrounding why the RPG was no longer available for digital purchase on the system, Square Enix provided assurances that the delisting was only temporary.
Now, the Japanese publisher has confirmed via its official Twitter page that the Octopath Traveler eShop listing is live once again, which means players can once again digitally purchase the game.
The company still hasn’t explained why the game was delisted in the first place, but prior speculation has suggested that it was due to a change in the publisher mentioned on the listing. Upon its original release, Octopath Traveler was published for the Switch by Nintendo, though shortly before its recent delisting, the publisher was changed to Square Enix.
Octopath Traveler is available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PC. Its sequel, Octopath Traveler 2, is available on Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4, and PC, with Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One versions due out sometime this year.
Octopath Traveler is now available to purchase on Nintendo Switch eShop once again.
