Beloved Square Enix Franchise Revived for Switch!

Triangle Strategy Returns to Nintendo Switch eShop

RPG enthusiasts can celebrate! Triangle Strategy, the acclaimed Square Enix title, is back on the Nintendo Switch eShop after a temporary removal. This follows a recent transfer of publishing rights from Nintendo to Square Enix, a likely explanation for the brief delisting.

The return of Triangle Strategy allows Switch owners to once again purchase and download this popular tactical RPG. Known for its classic turn-based combat reminiscent of Fire Emblem, Triangle Strategy received significant praise upon its initial release. Its strategic gameplay, focusing on unit placement and maximizing damage, resonated with fans of the genre.

Square Enix confirmed the game's return via Twitter, ending a four-day absence. This swift resolution contrasts with the weeks-long delisting of Octopath Traveler last year, another Square Enix title that experienced a similar situation.

This event underscores the ongoing, positive relationship between Square Enix and Nintendo. This collaboration has resulted in several Nintendo Switch exclusives, including the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series (initially exclusive) and the definitive version of Dragon Quest 11. The history of Square Enix releasing console exclusives stretches back to the original Final Fantasy on the NES, showcasing a long-standing partnership despite expanding to other platforms over time. This is further evidenced by the current PlayStation 5 exclusivity of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

The reappearance of Triangle Strategy is undoubtedly welcome news for Nintendo Switch players and fans of Square Enix's acclaimed RPGs.
