Octopath Traveler is an oddity in so many ways. I mean, for starters, it’s a Switch exclusive that has received a (rather good) PC version long before there are even whispers of other console ports. On a more concrete note: it’s a retro JRPG that pulls in aged mechanics and then adds a lot of quality-of-life upgrades. It uses the Unreal Engine 4 to provide visual flashiness alongside pixelated 16-bit sprite work....
