Fire Emblem Warriors devs on how the game came to be, appearing characters, more
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in New Nintendo 3DS, News, Switch | 81 Comments
After several months of silence, Fire Emblem Warriors resurfaced this week. The news cycle started out with Famitsu with plenty of new details and an interview with the developers.
That interview has now been translated. It featured producer Yosuke Hayashi from Koei Tecmo, Nintendo’s Genki Yokota (Fire Emblem director since Awakening), and Masahiro Higuchi from Intelligent Systems. We’re now able to see their direct comments on the game’s origins, talk about the appearing characters, and more.
Read on below for some excerpts from the interview. Read up on the full discussion here.
Fire Emblem Warriors: official website and Twitter account launched
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in New Nintendo 3DS, News, Switch | 2 Comments
Nintendo and developer Koei Tecmo have started releasing new information on Fire Emblem Warriors this week, and it doesn’t look like they will be stopping anytime soon. They launched an official website for the game here and have started up a dedicated Twitter account for the game here.
Neither of them contain any new info or screenshots at the moment; it’s mostly a recap of the Famitsu article we covered here. You can listen to some voice clips of the characters on the website though – the main characters, brother and sister Shion and Lian, are actually voiced by real life-siblings as well, Yuma and Maya Uchida.
Both the website and the Twitter account are in Japanese, but we will of course provide you with all the latest info from them in English.
