The Nintendo Switch is six years old now, and the console has a plethora of games on it. Every person owning this console has no shortage of options to explore when bored. From family-friendly games to vast open-world games to deep RPGs, to fun co-op games, the Nintendo Switch has everything.

But one genre not many talks about is strategy games. Today we will talk about the top 5 strategy games on the Nintendo Switch that everyone must try at least once.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

This is one of the latest games in this long-running strategy series by Nintendo. Aside from adding a whole new type of playground to play on, this game also introduced a Persona-like social element to it.

Players had to talk to people, complete classes, and, for the main story, participate in those excellent turn-based strategy battles.

XCOM 2

XCOM is considered one of the best sci-fi strategy RPG games to ever come from a western studio. Firaxis decided to develop a sequel for this game and bring it to the Nintendo Switch. It was naturally met with a universally positive response, all thanks to the new gameplay mechanics the developers decided to add to it.

This time around, players even had a spaceship as their base.

This War of Mine

This might be one of the darkest games on this console. Players control a bunch of characters, each with their own positives and negatives. They have to use those characters to build their base amidst a war. They have to collect resources and craft basic stuff that is useful for keeping them sane.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle

A crossover between two franchises that couldn’t be more different. One features the well-known mascot of a big console manufacturer; the other is a forgotten character who comes back every now and then. This game mixes the worlds of Mario and Rabbids in such a manner that players battle enemies that are a fusion of characters from both worlds.

Huge Rabbids in Donkey Kong getups, etc., are a common thing. The biggest strength of this game is its sense of humor and combat. The combat is layered and gradually gives players new abilities to play with. It was so successful that it even got a sequel recently. Every Mario or Rabbid fan should try it at least once.
