The brand-new Nintendo Switch game coming from the mind of Tomoya Asano, the producer of the belovedBravely DefaultandOctopath Travelergames, is just around the corner, releasing at the end of March. The game, now officially titledTriangle Strategy, is starting to excite fans of the tactical turn-based RPG genre, as Asano’s past work is more than enough evidence to prove he knows what he’s doing. To solidify the game’s hype even further,Square Enix is heading up developmenton the game, and it generally has a pretty solid track record with this genre.
Over the last few weeks, Nintendo have been releasing “Character and Story” trailers on its official YouTube channel, showcasing some of the unique figures players will get to meet in a few months. According toan interview with Asano, the game is likely going to be around 50 hours long, so it’s a good thing that players are getting invested in these characters right away.

Character Trailer #1- Roland Glenbrook
Thefirst officialTriangle Strategycharacter trailerdropped on July 12, 2025, and it put the younger prince of Glenbrook front and center. Roland Glenbrook, one of the main protagonists ofTriangle Strategy, is shown to be fairly powerless in his current position, with his father, the King, and his older brother holding all the political power. Roland stays firm to his beliefs though, and is shown begging for his father to see things his way.
The trailer continues, claiming that Roland will need to make a major decision. Through no fault of his own, Roland has been backed into a corner and must decide between taking part in illegal dealings to save his own skin or expose those involved to remain true to his own ideals. This pivotal decision will determine Roland’s future, who joins his cause, and where his path eventually leads.
Character Trailer #2- Frederica Aesfrost
About a week ago, the second character trailer was released, this time showcasing Frederica Aesfrost, the woman in the middle of two warring factions. Frederica is currently betrothed to Serenoa Wolffort in an attempt to join the Glenbrook and Aesfrost clans together. As Frederica has ties to both Glenbrook and Aesfort, she also has to make a key decision that will shape not just her own life, but countless around her.
As the Wolffort family begin to rise in the social ranks, Frederica is given an ultimatum to hand over Roselle, Frederica’s people, or to be cut off from society and cast out. If Roselle is given away, this will certainly force the citizens into a life of slavery, but it would mean that the Wolffort clan continue to gain favor with the high powers of this world.
Character Trailer #3- Benedict Pascal
Arriving just a few days ago, thelatest character trailer shows off Benedict Pascal, a stalwart steward of the Wolffort family who has been with the clan for decades. The trailer opens with a hint that Pascal is atoning for a past sin, hence his devotion to the Wolffort family.
Pascal is determined to see his adopted clan succeed, and can be seen giving words of advice to Serenoa Wolffort, one of the main protagonists ofTriangle Strategy. However, Pascal’s determination is shown to be a double-edged sword. While he may put Wolffort first, there is little else he cares about, and he will do anything toensure that the family’s legacy grows- even if that means betraying his allies.
Benedict Pascal’s choice revolves around the Wolffort family taking back the capital and how they go about doing so. The first option is flooding the city, assuring victory but killing innocents along the way. The second option sees soldiers sneak into the capital under cover of night, assassinating the leaders of the city simultaneously. The final option is to encircle the castle and force its leaders into diplomatic talks. All look interesting, andNintendo Switch fansshould have fun witnessing the story unfold once the game debuts.
