Fire Emblem Engage ROM leaks online
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Fire Emblem Engage won’t be around until later this week, but there’s been a leak for the game’s ROM and it’s circulating online (which we won’t be sharing here). Unfortunately, this appears to be fairly typical for Nintendo. Most of the company’s major Switch titles tend to leak at or before launch.
While that isn’t exactly the best news, there is some interesting information that did emerge from the Fire Emblem Engage ROM leak. It turns out that the game is built with the Unity engine, which is something that most probably wouldn’t have guessed. To compare, Fire Emblem: Three Houses was developed with the Dynasty Warriors engine.
