The tactics are panning out
Triangle Strategyseems like it’s doing pretty well in sales so far. The tactical RPG has hit 800,000 copies sold globally in its first two weeks, with over 200,000 in Japan and Asia.
The sales numbers were shared on theTriangle StrategyTwitter accountalongside a message and thanks from producer Tomoya Asano. Designer Naoki Ikushima also made a special illustration for the milestone.

OctopathTraveler, another Asano title, also had apretty solid debutaccording to NPD numbers, andhit 1 million units in roughly three weeks. Both were Switch-exclusive debuts, thoughOctopathhas since been released on PC as well.
It’s heartening to see, asTriangle Strategyis agreat tactics game overall. Though the story and dialogue can go on a little long, the latest in HD-2D had some excellent tactical battles.
This could easily be a tack-on effect ofFire Emblem: Three Houses‘ success. The most recent entry inFire Emblemhad the best U.S. launch in the history of the series, and it definitely could have kindled a fire for more tactics in general.Triangle Strategy, it seems, is here to answer that call.
Looking ahead, 2022 has a ton in store for tactics games.Marvel’s Midnight Sunsand theFront Missionremake are still on the way. Even Square Enix has the recently announcedTheDioField Chroniclestill in store for the year ahead.
Seems like a good time to be a tactics fan. If you want to read more about the creation ofTriangle Strategy, you canhead over here to read our recent interviewwith the tactical RPG’s producers, including Asano.
