There are some limitations to the Octopath Traveler 0 demo. The first is that you can’t play for that long. You are limited to three total hours. This should be enough time to get through the introduction and start on your quest for revenge against Auguste, Herminia, and Tyto, the three tyrants who burned down the main character’s hometown in the name of fame, wealth, and power. It also means you only get to go through the initial slices of the game. However, this will contain the full character creator and allow someone to make a save file that can carry over to the full title. 

Here’s the new story trailer that also announced the demo release:

Octopath Traveler 0 will come to the Switch, Switch 2, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on December 4, 2025, and a demo will be available on November 11, 2025.
