Since the beginning of this year, the game development contents have been leaked several times in the form of leaks from inside sources, and the new Fire Emblem, which fans have been waiting for, Fire Emblem Engagewas officially released through Nintendo Direct.
At Nintendo Direct held on the 13th, Nintendo released a video containing the cinematic and gameplay of Fire Emblem Engage together. In the video released on this day, you can see the representative character Mars, who appeared in various games, such as the Dark Dragon, the Sword of Light, the Secret of the Sentence, and the Awakening. In addition to Mars, Cecilia will also appear and travel with new characters. Nintendo explained that they are summoned through the power of the ring, and predicted the appearance of more heroes, and this can be seen in the video.
After the introduction, which depicts the heroes facing the divine dragon like a classic myth, the full-fledged video begins with the main character with red-blue hair with the Taegeuk pattern reminiscent of it. The main character is Shin-ryong, who suddenly wakes up one day and is not aware of his identity. What stands out is the enhanced graphics in the cinematic. The character direction is drawn more smoothly than in the previous work, but it shows an improved appearance by weakening the surrounding details and concentrating on the character part.
The series, which introduced a new element of student guidance and the confrontation of the three countries through the Fire Emblem Weathering Snow Moon, seems to have inherited the legitimacy of the existing work this time. The elements of the SRPG that utilize various types of soldiers depending on the character are maintained as they are, and the combat elements that are focused separately can also be checked. However, elements of interacting with various characters by manipulating the main character continue. In addition, as can be seen in the main image, it seems that you can choose a male or female protagonist.
As there have been several internal leaks in the past, the game seems to have been completed at a considerable level. Because it’s only 4 months away from release. Nintendo has announced that Fire Emblem Engage will be released on January 20, 2023.
