Concert album "Octopath Traveler Orchestral Arrangements - To Travel Is to Live" debuts today in Japan, featuring music by series composer Yasunori Nishiki. Excerpts of all tracks are streaming on Apple Music and digital music store Ototoy.

The compact disc release ships from the Square Enix store for North America, along with distributors CDJapan and Play-Asia. A live orchestral concert will be held at the Hitomi Memorial Hall in Tokyo on March 23rd, comprised of a selection of symphonic arrangements from all three Octopath Traveler game scores.

Developed by Square Enix and Acquire, the turn-based role-playing game Octopath Traveler debuted on the Nintendo Switch, pioneering the "HD-2D" development framework. The distinctive visual aesthetic combines sprite-based, two-dimensional character art and three-dimensional polygonal terrains.
