Octopath Traveler's dev team sees their wish come true

July 7th in Japan is Tanabata (Star Festival), a celebration where people write their wishes on Tanzaku and hang them on bamboo. Acquire Studios, Square Enix’s development partner for Octopath Traveler, took part in the Tanabata festivities this year, and it seems most of the staff have had their wish come true.

Takuma Endo, President of Acquire Studios, wrote a message that said, “I hope Octopath Traveler will sell many copies.” Many other Acquire devs had similar messages that they shared on their Tanzaku. Whether you believe in something like this or not, it's still great to see the wishes of so many employees come true.
