After the overwhelming financial success of Fire Emblem Heroes (2017), Nintendo has announced another new Fire Emblem mobile game from their development partners at Intelligent Systems and DeNA Co. The game is titled Fire Emblem Shadows, and the gameplay is described as a combination of real-time strategy and social deduction. Launching today for iOS and Android devices, Fire Emblem Shadows will be free-to-start, with microtransactions available much like Fire Emblem Heroes. Below you can find a description of the game from Nintendo, as well as the launch trailer. Check out the official website here!
One of the three allies participating in each battle is secretly a treacherous disciple of shadow. Players choose to take on the role of either a disciple of light, aiming to find their way through the labyrinth, or a disciple of shadow.
After the initial battle, players vote to determine who they believe is the treacherous disciple of shadow. The outcome of the vote affects whether the next battle is more favorable or more challenging. Whether the disciples of light can correctly discover the traitor—or the disciple of shadow can successfully deceive the others—holds the key to how the next battle unfolds.
