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 move potentially linked to the game's brief absence.
The return of Triangle Strategy allows Nintendo Switch players to once again purchase and download this popular tactical RPG. Known for its classic turn-based gameplay reminiscent of Fire Emblem, Triangle Strategy offers strategic unit placement and combat.
Square Enix's announcement on Twitter confirmed the game's re-appearance after a four-day hiatus. While the reason for the delisting remains unconfirmed, the recent acquisition of publishing rights by Square Enix is a likely factor. This isn't the first time a Square Enix title has been temporarily delisted; Octopath Traveler experienced a similar situation last year, though its absence lasted considerably longer.
This swift return is positive news for fans and underscores the ongoing collaboration between Square Enix and Nintendo. This relationship is long-standing, evidenced by past collaborations such as the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series' initial Switch exclusivity and the release of Dragon Quest 11's definitive edition on the Nintendo Switch. Square Enix's history of releasing console exclusives, dating back to the original Final Fantasy on the NES, continues with titles like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (currently PlayStation 5 exclusive).
