Fire Emblem Warriors is a crossover game in the Fire Emblem series using the gameplay of Koei Tecmo's Dynasty Warriors series. The game is being developed by Omega Force and Team Ninja, who had previously worked on Hyrule Warriors and Hyrule Warriors Legends. Announced during the Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017, the game has been slated for release on both the Nintendo Switch and New Nintendo 3DS systems in fall 2017.[2][3]

In Japan, both versions of the game will be released with two special edition sets. The "Premium Box Edition" set includes a three-disc game soundtrack, a character card set, and a game art book. The "Treasure Box Edition" includes all of the contents of the Premium Box, plus an electronic dragonstone statue that includes voice clips.[6] In Europe, the Nintendo Switch version will launch with a limited edition that includes the soundtrack and character cards.[7]

Heroes from across the Fire Emblem universe collide!

Clash with legions of soldiers and fierce monsters as Marth, Xander, Corrin, and other Fire Emblem heroes unleashing over-the-top-powerful Dynasty Warriors-style moves. Take direct control of known and original Fire Emblem characters, issue them strategic commands in the midst of battle, pair up heroes to unleash stunning attacks, and more. Unlock new playable heroes, each with their own unique moves, special attacks, weapon types, and voiced dialogue in this large-scale action game from the Hyrule Warriors team.

Features:

  • Play and experience a new kingdom with original characters colliding with heroes from across the Fire Emblem universe.
  • Battle as fan-favorite Fire Emblem heroes, like Chrom, Corrin, Ryoma, Marth, Xander and more, each with unique moves, special attacks, weapon types, and voiced dialougue.
  • Pair up two hero characters as a single unit that can unleash devastating combos and even switch between these heroes mid-attack.
  • With the classic weapons triangle, tactically choose and switch between Fire Emblem heroes to gain the advantage in combat against countless enemies.

Gameplay

Gameplay appears largely similar to other Dynasty Warriors titles, in which players chain together weak and heavy attacks to fight armies of soldiers.[3] The game's playable characters will mostly be drawn from Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light, Fire Emblem Awakening, and Fire Emblem Fates.[8] The game will incorporate series standard features such as the weapon triangle, unit classes, character supports (known as "Bond Conversations" in this game), and other strategic elements, as well as the ability to switch between characters mid-battle.[8]

Development

Fire Emblem Warriors was originally unveiled during the Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017. During the Fire Emblem Direct on February 18, an extended trailer was showcased featuring a first look at gameplay.[2][3] Development on the game had already begun by late 2015.[9] The idea of a Fire Emblem-style Dynasty Warriors game originated at Koei Tecmo, and when the idea was proposed to Nintendo they began to discuss developing the game for their "new console", later revealed as the Nintendo Switch.[9] From the beginning the intention of the developers was "to make a Warriors game that can be enjoyed by Fire Emblem fans".[9]
