Take command of a team of powerful heroes in action-packed battles against waves of enemies.
Before any battle, you’ll study the battlefield and plan your strategy.
Fire Emblem fans will recognize the classic weapon triangle. Use it to strategically choose warriors and deploy them where they can seize the advantage on the battlefield.
Facing off against axe-wielding fiends? Choose heroes with swords. Sending in a pegasus knight? Watch out for bow-wielding enemies.
Lances are strong against swords.
Axes are strong against lances.
Swords are strong against axes.
Each character has a different special attack that you can use to deal major damage.
This state temporarily gives your hero an advantage against every weapon type, and can access a different Warrior Special attack.
If you’ve paired up two heroes to work together, they can unleash devastating attacks! Pairing them up can also strengthen their bond and lead to support conversations.
As your characters take out enemies and earn experience, they’ll level up to become more powerful. Make sure you’re getting the best out of each member of your army by upgrading between battles.
You’ll do most of your upgrades at Camp, using the weapons, gold, and items you earn in battle.
Give your heroes special Crests that enhance their attack, defense, or skills. You’ll need to craft these Crests out of specific materials.
Use these items in the Crest Market to promote your characters' base classes and unlock additional Crest options.
Here you can forge and enhance your weapons with attributes or sell them for cold, hard, in-game gold.
This mysterious place offers blessings and even a chance to revive fallen comrades.
You can level up your heroes here—if you have the gold to spend.
Choose classic or casual, set your difficulty, and play your way. In classic mode, heroes that are lost in battle won’t automatically return. In casual mode, fallen heroes return once the battle is over. You can also set your difficulty to easy, normal, or hard.
Experience a new Fire Emblem story in the kingdom of Aytolis. You’ll meet new playable characters as you unravel the mystery of the Shield of Flames and the Chaos Dragon. Once you’ve beaten a level, you can replay it any time in Free Mode.
Revisit classic battles from previous Fire Emblem games and play them in a new way. You may even earn special rewards.
