Has Triangle Strategy 2 Been Canceled By Square Enix?

September 30, 2024 by Todd Black

If it was a sequel, wouldn’t it have been Hexagon Strategy?

One of the biggest risks that certain gaming companies and publishers can make is trying to create a new IP that embodies some of the “core gameplay concepts” the teams have done in the past and hopes that gamers like it upon release. Sometimes, it works, and sometimes, it doesn’t. For Square Enix, up until its big “restructuring” due to certain failures on its part, they were all for making new IPs, including some that harkened back to their “old-school RPG days.” One of the titles that they made during that period was Triangle Strategy on Nintendo Switch and PC, and it was a hit.

The game came out in 2022 on Switch first and then got ported to the PC, with a combined sales of over 1 million units. The game was praised for its unique visuals, story, and tactics-focused combat, not unlike a certain other Square Enix RPG series! Given that success, many expected, or more fairly, guessed, that Square Enix would make a sequel, especially given how well its titles have done on Switch over its lifespan. However, according to leaker “Ryan From The Bronx,” whom you may remember as Midori, that will not happen. He commented about the status of certain projects and made specific mention of the tactics RPG:

Final Fantasy Tactics Remastered is still in development with assistance from CBU3/CS3. Triangle Strategy 2, however, was one of the cancelled SQEX projects. There was also a project between Team Asano and Frima Studio for mobile and VR platforms.

There are a couple of things to note here. The most important thing is that while “Ryan” is back to reporting certain things, this doesn’t mean they’re true. Even before his “rebirth,” due to accidentally leaking his source on things, he was proven wrong in the past about certain things. Second, if Triangle Strategy isn’t getting a sequel, that’s sad, but it should also be noted that no sequel was ever officially confirmed by Square Enix in the first place. That makes it hard to say, “They were working on it, but it got canceled.”

Finally, should this be true, it would absolutely point to the state of Square Enix, that they wouldn’t even want to make a sequel for a title that did well on a couple platforms. They’ve made sequels for less, but it could be they don’t see “enough profit” coming from such a project, even with Team Asano being behind it.

Ironically, Ryan’s last mention about Team Asano working on something mobile and VR further speaks to how different things might be for Square Enix, which apparently feels those two markets are more “valuable” than console and PC. No matter what, take this with a grain of salt.
