Square Enix RPG Returns to Nintendo Switch eShop

Triangle Strategy Returns to Nintendo Switch eShop

Good news for RPG fans! Triangle Strategy is back on the Nintendo Switch eShop after a short absence. The popular Square Enix title's return follows a brief delisting from the online store.

This allows Nintendo Switch players to once again purchase and download the acclaimed tactical RPG. The game's temporary removal lasted several days, causing some concern among fans.

Triangle Strategy is lauded for its revival of classic tactical RPG gameplay, reminiscent of titles like Fire Emblem. Its strategic unit placement and damage maximization mechanics have earned it significant praise.

Square Enix's announcement on Twitter confirmed the game's return to the eShop. While no official reason for the delisting was given, speculation points to Square Enix's recent acquisition of the game's publishing rights from Nintendo.

Triangle Strategy's Resurgence on the eShop

This isn't the first time a Square Enix title has experienced a temporary eShop removal. Octopath Traveler faced a similar situation last year, though its absence lasted considerably longer. Triangle Strategy's reappearance after only four days is a welcome change.

This event underscores the positive ongoing relationship between Square Enix and Nintendo. This collaboration is evident in past releases, such as the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series' initial Switch exclusivity, and continues with titles like the upcoming Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (currently PlayStation 5 exclusive) and the original Nintendo Switch release of Dragon Quest XI. Square Enix’s history of console exclusives, dating back to the original Final Fantasy on the NES, demonstrates their continued commitment to various platforms.
