{{nihongo foot|'''''Ogre Battle'''''|オウガバトル|Ōga Batoru|lead=yes|group=lower-alpha}} is a series of five [[tactical role-playing]] and [[real-time strategy]] video games developed by [[Quest Corporation]] and is currently owned by [[Square Enix]] through [[Square (video game company)|Square's]] acquisition of Quest. There are five main games in the series, starting with the release of ''[[Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen]]'' in 1993.

==Overview==
The first video game in the series, ''[[Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen]]'', was released in 1993 for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] in Japan, and two years later in North America. The title was a [[real-time strategy]] [[role playing game]], set in a [[medieval fantasy]] world.<ref>[http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/ogrebattle/ogrebattle.htm Hardcore Gaming 101: Ogre Battle]</ref> The second game in the series, ''[[Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together]]'', was released in 1995 in Japan. It was a turn-based [[tactical role-playing]] game making use of [[Isometric graphics in video games and pixel art|isometric graphics]], and the title is largely considered to be "exceptionally influential" to the genre.<ref>[http://randomnpc.com/2011/04/14/tactics-ogre-let-us-cling-together-staff-review/ Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together – Staff Review]</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=https://mediacraft.rockuapps.com/articles/the-10-classic-strategy-rpgs-you-should-check-out |title=The 10 Classic Strategy RPGs You Should Check Out |access-date=2016-11-11 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161112024535/https://mediacraft.rockuapps.com/articles/the-10-classic-strategy-rpgs-you-should-check-out |archive-date=2016-11-12 |url-status=dead}}</ref> Two subsequent games in the ''Ogre Battle'' series – ''[[Ogre Battle 64]]'' and ''[[Ogre Battle Gaiden: Prince of Zenobia]]'' – follow the real-time strategy gameplay of the original title in the franchise, while ''[[Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis]]'' follows the turn-based tactical role-playing gameplay elements of the second game in the series.

''The Knight of Lodis'', released in 2001, is the last original release in the franchise. In 2010, ''Tactics Ogre'' was remade for the [[PlayStation Portable]] as ''[[Tactics Ogre: Wheel of Fortune]]'', but the characters, story and setting are identical to the 1995 release. The creator of the series, [[Yasumi Matsuno]], directed the remake of the game. Matsuno was also responsible for another highly influential title, ''[[Final Fantasy Tactics]]'', originally released in 1997. Though the title bears no relation to the ''Ogre Battle'' series, ''Final Fantasy Tactics'' is considered by some critics to be a spiritual successor to ''Tactics Ogre''.<ref>[https://gamerant.com/best-video-game-spiritual-sequels-successor/3/ Top 10 Spiritual Successor Video Games]</ref> As of 2016, the franchise mostly remains active through re-releases of the first two games for the Nintendo's [[Virtual Console]] service in Japan, North America and Europe.

Both "Ogre Battle" and "The March of the Black Queen" were titles to [[Queen (band)|Queen]] songs from their 1974 album ''[[Queen II]]''. In addition, "Let Us Cling Together" is the subtitle to their song "[[Teo Torriatte (Let Us Cling Together)]]" from 1976's ''[[A Day at the Races (album)|A Day at the Races]]''.
