Octopath Traveler 8th Anniversary

With the Octopath Traveler franchise reaching its 8th anniversary in a month (July 13th) and a rumored Nintendo Direct this June, I think it's reasonable to expect a little announcement from Team Asano soon. While it might be a bit early for an OT3 reveal, I am hopeful for something exciting. It's pointless speculating right now, but what are changes you are hoping to see in OT3?

My lofty wishlist so far is:

  • Unique combo attacks depending on travelers (We saw a bit of that in OT2's Extra Battles)
  • An 8 traveler Crossed Path side quest during midgame (somewhere between travelers' chapter 2 & 3)
  • Memorable dungeons (unique designs, little puzzles or gimmicks like the Decaying Temple in OT2)
  • Difficulty options (even with the New Dawn mod for OT2, I still found it fairly easy to break the system)
  • A way to rematch story bosses in the post game
  • More random lore hidden in side quests (like House Wellows)
  • New environment (revamped jobs and path actions, new gods)
