Square Enix RPG Returns to Nintendo Switch eShop

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 short period where the game was unavailable for purchase.

The reasons behind the delisting remain unconfirmed, but speculation points to Square Enix recently assuming publishing rights from Nintendo. This isn't the first time a Square Enix game has experienced a brief eShop absence; Octopath Traveler faced a similar situation last year. However, Triangle Strategy's return was significantly quicker, lasting only four days compared to Octopath Traveler's several-week hiatus.

Triangle Strategy, a critically acclaimed tactical RPG, has drawn comparisons to Fire Emblem for its strategic unit maneuvering and damage optimization gameplay. Its return is welcome news for fans of Square Enix and Nintendo Switch players. This further strengthens the ongoing collaboration between the two companies, evidenced by past releases like the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series (initially a Switch exclusive) and the ongoing trend of Square Enix releasing console exclusives on Nintendo platforms. This trend stretches back to the original Final Fantasy on the NES and continues with titles like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (currently PlayStation 5 exclusive) and Dragon Quest XI (initially a Switch exclusive).

The game's reappearance on the eShop is a positive development for both companies and their fans.
