Triangle Strategy, a turn-based strategy RPG that released exclusively for theNintendo Switchon March 4, is gearing up for a release on PC.
The game was developed bySquare Enix, specifically Team Asano, the same team that developed 2018’sOctopath Traveler. It was seen by many as a sort of branching successor to Octopath Traveler, given the similar art styles, though now it’s clear the brands stand on their own, as Team Asano is going back to traditional turn-based combat with the recently announced Octopath Traveler II. Triangle Strategy launches onSteamon Aug 09, 2025.

The title’s grid-based strategy gameplay offers a compelling combination of mechanics, with things like height advantage damage bonuses and character synergies, which make the player have to put a strong emphasis on positioning, although its central selling point is the ‘Triangle’ aspect. The choices you make are based on three values; utility, morality, and liberty. Every choice will steer your characters towards one of these values, which will alter the trajectory of the story. Not only that, decisions are placed to a vote with the characters in your party, so interacting with your team and swaying them to your preferences is necessary to have the game play out as you wish.
Triangle Strategy can already be pre-orderedhere. The game is priced at a full $59.99. However, there is a small 10% pre-order bonus marking the price down to $53.99. There is currently a bundle available on Steam for $62.11, which includes another one of Team Asano’s titles, 2019’s Various Daylife.
Various Daylife was previously an Apple Arcade exclusive that was recently announced to have become available onPCand Switch. It’s another JRPG whose main hook is that you level up your combat abilities and learn new classes by doing standard jobs outside of battle, like working for a warrior, or even for a waiter.
With this recent news, Triangle Strategy’s similarity to Octopath Traveler goes beyond its art style. The latter title also went to PC after first releasing on Switch. However, Octopath Traveler had an 11-month exclusivity window, while Triangle Strategy only got a 7-month window. Octopath Traveler also eventually went toXboxconsoles in 2021. No information has been given regarding a potentialPlayStationversion, which is particularly notable, as Octopath Traveler II has been confirmed for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
