Here are the eight different characters, which fall into the same classes featured in the first game. One major difference this time, however, is that the hero’s stories actually intersect narratively in “Crossed Paths.” Apparently when two specific protagonists meet they can start a new story that involves both of them, so you won’t simply have other characters as voiceless party members. Although you can start as any character you’ll be able to recruit the other protagonists. Just like the first game, Octopath Traveler 2 will let players choose from eight different protagonists with eight different stories.

Solistia appears to be in the midst of an industrial revolution, and the reveal trailer shows off cities that have more of a steampunk flair and have steam engines, horse-drawn carriages, and grand castles. Octopath Traveler 2 takes place in a new world called Solistia, a setting that looks very different from the previous game. While the protagonists of Octopath Traveler 2 are brand new, they use the same classes as the first game.
