Each boss you encounter will have a specific weapon, which is shared with all nearby units. It also plays into the weapon triangle system, which is in effect here. This is by far the best new addition, as it allows you to accomplish multiple goals at once.
Mid-battle, you can even head back to the map and provide orders to your units. You can select which heroes you want to bring into battle with you, and their starting location on a grid-based map. They'll even interact with each other, which leads to a few fun conversations. So first off, you've got characters from Awakening, Fates, and Shadow Dragon to unlock and play as. It's a fair question, and one that developer Koei Tecmo has made an effort to answer. None of the above will come as a surprise to Dynasty Warriors fans - that's what you sign up for with the franchise.īut Fire Emblem fans will likely wonder how exactly this is going to appeal to them. It's not a particularly deep system, but it is satisfying.Īs you fight, you'll fill up a few different gauges that let you pull off incredibly powerful moves that will devastate an area, or eat a massive chunk out of a boss's health bar. You've got a primary and secondary attack, and you can press them in different combinations to unleash a variety of powerful attacks. Seriously, you'll kill hundreds, if not thousands, of bad people in each level.Ĭombat is basically hack and slash. These could force you to drop what you're doing to rush to the other side of the map, or stretch your resources.Įnemies can even retake strategic locations, so you have to keep an eye on that too.ĭuring a typical level, you'll face hordes of enemies trying to stop you. It's simple stuff, but regular events are thrown at you. To achieve that, you simply kill the boss in a specific location. You effectively have to control the sway of battle by capturing key points on the map. That's a big ask though, since Fire Emblem and Dynasty Warriors are like gaming chalk and cheese.įire Emblem Warriors has a campaign and history mode, but both play entirely the same. Really, you need to be a huge fan of both franchises to get the most out of this. It's basically Dynasty Warriors reskinned, with a few Fire Emblem touches thrown in so it doesn't totally alienate that fanbase.Īnd while the Fire Emblem bits are both welcome and well implemented, I'm not entirely convinced that it's quite enough to convince pure fans.
Fire Emblem Warriors is not a traditional Fire Emblem experience.
