In the Fire Emblem Direct, we didn’t anticipate any news about a Fire Emblem game happening for the Switch anytime soon… and then we were all surprised by the announcement about a main series title!
There’s not much in the way of detail yet, but it was confirmed that a game for the main series is coming in 2018 to the Switch. It’s still some time away, but on the plus side, it’s not a remake or a port of an older game, which means fresh, new material for the series on Nintendo’s new system.
Let the hype train start rolling!
