Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent will see Square Enix transfer operations to NetEase

Author : Eleanor Jan 05,2025

Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent is changing hands! NetEase will take over operations starting January 2024, but thankfully, your save data and progress will transfer seamlessly. While this ensures the game's continued availability, it raises questions about Square Enix's overall mobile gaming strategy.

This news comes on the heels of the announced Final Fantasy XIV mobile port, handled by Tencent's Lightspeed Studios. This contrasts with the Octopath Traveler arrangement, suggesting a potential shift away from direct mobile development for Square Enix.

The writing may have been on the wall since 2022, with the closure of Square Enix Montreal, the studio behind successful mobile titles like Hitman GO and Deus Ex GO. While the survival of Octopath Traveler is positive, it's a pity Square Enix is seemingly retreating from the mobile market, especially considering the strong demand for their titles on mobile platforms, as evidenced by the enthusiasm surrounding the FFXIV mobile announcement.

This leaves many wondering about the future of Square Enix's mobile presence. In the meantime, explore our list of the top 25 best Android RPGs to fill the gap until the transfer is complete!
