PSA: Octopath Traveler 0 on Nintendo Switch 2 Is a Game-Key Card Only

Octopath Traveler 0, the latest installment in the Octopath Traveler series, was recently announced during a Nintendo Partner Direct. However, the physical edition of the game for the Nintendo Switch 2 will not be a traditional game cartridge, but rather a Game-Key Card. This revelation has caused some disappointment among fans, as they were expecting a physical copy of the game. The Game-Key Card will provide access to the digital version of Octopath Traveler 0, but it will not include a physical game disc or cartridge. This decision by the developers has sparked some controversy and debate within the gaming community. While it may be a cost-saving measure, some fans feel that the physical edition should still include a tangible game copy, rather than just a digital access key. Overall, the announcement of Octopath Traveler 0 has generated excitement, but the news about the physical edition being a Game-Key Card only has also led to some frustration among the game's dedicated fanbase.
