1) Fire Emblem Echoes, inspired by Gaidan, is coming to the 3DS May 19, 2017. It looks like Gaidan from all the footage they showed and plays like it, but with the same engine as Awakening and Fates.
Spoiler:
2) A new Fire Emblem game for the Switch coming 2018.
3) Fire Emblem Warriors for Switch and New 3DS coming Fall 2017.
4) Fire Emblem Heroes for mobile devices coming February 2, 2017 for Google Play and sometime later for iOS. Summon heroes from past and current games to fight for you!
1 and 4 don't interest me so much, but 2 and 3 do. What about you guys?
I'm most interested in Echoes and Heroes atm. I looked at Serenes Forest's page for Gaiden and the story looked really...short? They'll probably expand upon it in the remake, but it's still a little concerning.
Heroes looks like your standard mobile summoning RPG so I'll probably play it for a bit but I doubt it will be that engrossing. I was honestly expecting them to pull a "and it's available to download...RIGHT NOW!" But knowing how the iOS store can be with approving games they probably couldn't pull that off lol.
The FE for the switch was basically just them going "we're working on it!" So nothing really to comment on there. And I may or may not get Warriors, if I do it will probably be when/if it goes on sale.
I know I said initially that I wasn't interested in Echoes, but looking at the box art and all. Well, it is a new FE game inspired by Gaidan. I'll keep an eye out. I'm not a huge fan of strategy games, but I loved Awakening and Fates for the characters and the marriage system. The gameplay made me care for my characters, especially when they were slain. I'll have to keep an eye out for it after all I guess.
I think the big thing for me is that all of these seem to have simultaneous world wide release dates, which bodes very well for the 2018 Switch FE to be a worldwide release potentially.
Edit: Oh Echoes comes out a month earlier in Japan actually. Not quite simultaneous but close enough!
so excited for echoes and heroes!!!
echoes comes out exactly a week before my birthday, so i'll definitely be getting that almost immediately hopefully! and heroes just looks plain great??? not usually a fan of mobile versions of games meant for consoles but this one looks really good, although the variations in the art style, while all are good really throws me for a loop.
would be more excited for the switch if i knew more about it, and don't have a new 3DS for fire emblem warriors.
totally hyped for echoes, hidari illustration is a ++ for me!!! im not hyped for heroes, and musou, (for heroes... because i had enough of gacha mobage. FGO, hesokuri wars, yume100 and magical days is enough for me)
i should start saving for nintendo switch... (also for new story of seasons)
Echoes sounds cool and the art is cute so I'll probably get it once it releases. Not much info for the Switch game so I can't pass judgement on it. tbh as soon as the gacha thing in Heroes showed up my mind instantly went to Brave Frontier. Probably going to play it for a while before dropping it. It'll be nice to have an FE game that I can play at school without worrying about losing my 3DS.
I've never played a Warriors game before so I'm not sure if I'll like FE Warriors. I know my brother owns Dynasty Warriors though so I'll try to play through that before I decide whether or not to buy it.
Looking forward to Echoes and Heroes! But it seems I will not be able to play Heroes on Feb 2. My country was not listed on the country availability on their site.
I haven't even fully finished Fates and Awakening and there are new games already-
I'm more interested with Echoes and Heroes, because I don't think I'll be getting Switch. Echoes' art is really cute! Will be looking forward to perks of the game.
I'm not sure if I'll be getting a Switch. Nintendo kind of screwed everyone with the WiiU so I'll be waiting for more games I actually want before considering any new console for Nintendo...
As for which I'm most hyped for, I'm the opposite of you. I'm excited for the 3ds game (because I already have a 3ds) and the mobile one (but only because I will be voting to have Iago playable every day until the 31st but it probably won't happen...and then I probably won't download it :'D). Other than that, I'm interested in FE warriors because Hyrule Warriors was so great. I am a bit on the fence though and not expecting too much. I'm not sure how they're going to work FE gameplay into a Warriors game... I'll be waiting for some gameplay before I decide.
