Strategy games inherently demand significant thought and careful planning, which leads many gamers today to find it challenging to start epic multi-hour campaigns in one go.

Luckily, the portability of the Nintendo Switch, Switch Lite, and Switch OLED — along with their sleep function — makes them perfect devices for fitting these complex games into busy lives. The Switch offers a wealth of strategy and tactical games available both at retail and on the eShop. So, whether you’re gearing up for a lengthy campaign in a 4X game like Civilization or equipping your team with the best gear in a tactical RPG like Fire Emblem: Three Houses, you can seamlessly pick up and put down your campaign whenever it suits you.
