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 sudden delisting and subsequent return have sparked speculation. One theory suggests the brief absence was due to Square Enix recently acquiring the publishing rights from Nintendo. This isn't unprecedented; Square Enix titles have been briefly delisted from the eShop before, with Octopath Traveler experiencing a similar, albeit longer, absence last year.
Triangle Strategy, a critically acclaimed tactical RPG, has drawn comparisons to franchises like Fire Emblem, emphasizing strategic unit placement and maximizing damage. Its return to the eShop is welcome news for fans and prospective players alike. The game's reappearance, after only a four-day hiatus, is significantly quicker than Octopath Traveler's several-week absence.
This event underscores the ongoing strong relationship between Square Enix and Nintendo. This partnership is evident in past releases, including the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series' initial Switch exclusivity and the Nintendo Switch exclusive release of the definitive edition of Dragon Quest 11. While Square Enix has expanded its releases to other platforms over time, the company's history of releasing console exclusives, dating back to the original Final Fantasy on the NES, continues to this day, as seen with the PlayStation 5 exclusive release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.
