We get an interesting set of details related to one of the most outstanding games in the Nintendo Switch catalog. We are talking in this case about Fire Emblem Engage.
Specifically, we have a new set of details related to the japanese trailer shown yesterday. Since it was only in Japanese, you may not have understood something, so now we get written information of what was shown.
These are the details:
RINGS:
- When a unit equips a ring, the unit and emblem will enter a “synchronized state”.
- When in that state, the unit will enjoy various benefits
- Benefits include enhanced abilities and access to certain abilities
- The unit wearing a ring and its associated emblem can be fused together
- This game mechanic is called “Engage”
- When “Engage” is active, the unit can use special weapons (Engage Weapons), special abilities (Engage Skills), and extremely powerful moves (Engage Techniques).
- Synchronization Skills – Available by simply equipping the Ring
- Engage Skills – Available only when the Engage state is active
- Engage is a state that only lasts for 3 turns.
- After those 3 turns, the unit returns to the synchronized state
- Every time a unit engages an enemy unit in combat, the counter goes up again.
FIGHTING STYLES:
- The fighting style is directly related to the class of the unit.
- Fighting styles revealed so far include the following: Dragon, Knight, Magic, Qigong, Cooperation, Heavy Armor, Flying, Stealth
MARTH:
- Marth is known as the Emblem of Beginnings
- Alear used the Ring of Marth the entire time they were asleep.
- Marth can defeat enemies with glowing attacks and fast movements.
- Marth is compatible with virtually any drive
Marth’s abilities are as follows:
- Synchronization Ability: Nihil. Prevents enemies from activating their abilities in battle, making it harder for them to hit you when you attack them
- Engage Weapon: Rapier. Deals additional damage to Cavalry and Heavy Armor units
- Engage ability: Godspeed. Increases the number of attacks per turn by 1. If your unit can counterattack, it can hit enemies up to 3 times per turn!
- Engage Technique: Star Rush. Unleash a flurry of fast attacks that deal high damage. When used by a Dragon unit, the number of attacks is increased by 2, making Marth a great emblem for Alear!
To finish, we leave you with some additional videos shared on the game’s official Japanese Twitter account:
What do you think? If you are interested, you can take a look at our full coverage of the title, which opens on January 20, 2023, at this link. You also have below its characteristics:
Fire Emblem Engage
- The new installment in the Fire Emblem series takes place in Elyos, a continent made up of four nations that surround a Sacred Land. A thousand years ago a bloody war broke out between Elyos and the Fallen Dragon.
- During the conflict, the inhabitants of Elyos summoned heroes from other worlds to help them: the so-called Crests. Warriors from different nations fought together alongside them and eventually succeeded in banishing the Fallen Dragon. However, certain signs portend the imminent return of this fearsome enemy…
- In this adventure you will play Alear, a Divine Dragon who wakes up a thousand years after the war without any memory. Prepare for the challenge and fight alongside your allies in combat that combines role-playing and strategy to thwart the return of the Fallen Dragon.
- Command yourselves on the battlefield by summoning Emblems, including Marth, Celica, and other heroes from previous Fire Emblem installments, who dwell within Emblem rings. By donning these rings, Alear and his allies can borrow the power of these Emblems, thus improving their attributes and accessing much more powerful abilities. Heroes can also use powerful magic to “fuse” with the Emblems, combining their powers and unlocking unique attacks to lay waste to the enemy.
A great adventure awaits you! Meet different allies and enemies in each nation, discover the Crests that slumber in each ring, and bond with them in this fight to save the world.
