Nintendo Brings Back Marth for 'Fire Emblem Engage'

Marth returns as a legendary hero in the newest Fire Emblem game.

"Fire Emblem" is a fantasy tactical role-playing game franchise created and published by Intelligent Systems. The series debuted in 1990 and now includes sixteen main entries and four spinoffs. The gameplay focuses on the strategic movement of characters throughout grid-based environments, with a story and characters similar to those found in conventional role-playing video games.

What We Know About 'Fire Emblem Engage'

During the most recent Nintendo Direct, Nintendo announced a new Fire Emblem title called "Fire Emblem Engage," as well as the introduction of a slew of new gameplay. The video game giant also revealed the release date for the game, which will be on January 20, 2023.

According to The Gamer, nobody really predicted "Fire Emblem Engage" to be revealed during the most recent Nintendo Direct; the game had been rumored to be in development and nearly finished for some time. Based on the same report, the new Fire Emblem game was supposed to be released during the franchise's anniversary in 2020, but it was delayed.

Its rapid release schedule following the Nintendo Direct reveal tends to suggest that Nintendo has already been working on the project for quite some time, which is something a publisher like Nintendo would do. The unique adventure classic fans will enjoy this new Fire Emblem edition next year.

Additionally, Fire Emblem Engage uses surprisingly little storage space. The game will likely be around 15 GB in size if you buy it digitally through the eShop, according to the official Nintendo store website. Although Fire Emblem Engage is scheduled to launch until January 2023, there is still a chance that the file size will change.

Meet Marth of 'Fire Emblem Engage'

Marth is one of the returning characters in the upcoming game "Fire Emblem Engage," according to Nintendo Life. Since his initial appearance in 1990, this character has appeared numerous times both inside and outside of the series. Marth returns as a legendary hero in the newest Fire Emblem game.

According to official descriptions, "The Emblem Marth," also known as the "Emblem of Beginnings," is a hero among heroes who is both noble and charismatic. He is also a prince of Altea from Archanea's out realm continent. Furthermore, Marth is an expert swordsman; when characters wear his ring, they are more likely to dodge attack hits.

The creators of Fire Emblem refer to it as an RPG simulation, combining tactical simulation gameplay with a role-playing game's plotline and character development to forge a connection with characters absent from earlier tactical games.

In case you haven't seen the official announcements yet, we have attached the most recent Nintendo Direct here, which includes other Nintendo titles yet to be released.

With the power of Emblem Rings, summon valiant heroes like Marth and Celica and combine their strength with yours in this all-new Fire Emblem story. Fire Engage will be available on Switch in January 2023.
