What Will Fire Emblem Switch Be Like?

Made by yours truly!

Alright so last year, Nintendo announced a new Fire Emblem game for Switch in 2018 and... we haven't heard of it since. Its a big deal because Fire Emblem hasn't been on a console in like 10 years! So what will it look like, how will it play? But before we start, please consider subscribing to NintendosView so you never miss an article. Now let's slash all the rumors and my thoughts and find out how Fire Emblem Switch might be like!

Alright so,  I imagine it would look a lot like Fire Emblem on the 3ds. It could look anything from Smash 4 to Unreal, to an HD version of the 3ds ones. I personally feel like it will be an improved version of the 3ds ones.

Rumors

By Myself!

This information comes from 4chan and is compiled by Fire Emblem fansite Serene’s Forest. 

Story

• A Gothic Horror theme. Darker and more mature, but not “M” rated. More like the Jugdral games.
• Two sides – Humans and Kibaire.
• Avatar plays a more Villainous role. Camus-like anti-hero.
• the Fire Emblem – a sundial. Gathers energy from the sun and the moon. Can either empower or destroy the Kibaire. Both Sides are seeking it.

Humans:

• Artist – Kotaro Yamada. Drew Lyn and Narcian in FE:Heroes. 3ds style aesthetics. 2D sprites on a 3D environment.
• Full Voice Acting. Avatar’s name is skipped.

What do I think? I think this is probably false. And I don't think the first time to hit home consoles in 10 years would be Horror themed! I'm just saying!

Fire Emblem Fates

Once again by me, myself and I!

There have also been rumors that fire emblem switch is just a port of Fire Emblem Fates. I find this unlikely because it was listed as a new Fire Emblem game.

Gameplay and Changes 

So as for gameplay, I confess I havn't played a Fire Emblem game (It looks to Anime for me! Please don't hate me! I love some anime's like Studio Ghibli!) so I can't be a good judge. But I would say to take all the good things about fire emblem, and put it on a full HD game that can be played at home and on the go! With complex characters, battle system, turn based combat and much more I think it sounds awesome for any Fire Emblem fan!

Conclusion

I think this game will defiantly come in 2018 and probably come out around October. It will be one of the big holiday games for the holidays and I think Fire Emblem fans and newcomers alike will not be disappointed.
