Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem will take place in a modern world
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo and Atlus haven’t shared much about its Shin Megami Tensei and Fire Emblem crossover title for Wii U. A teaser trailer was shown during the January Nintendo Direct, but that’s all, and the game hasn’t been seen since.
Nintendo’s Hitoshi Yamagami did reconfirm one nugget about Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem while speaking with Hobby Consolas. According to Yamagami, the game will take place in a modern world.
He said:
“For a long time, I wanted to create a FE on ours times, on the real world. Imagine a Pegasus that comes from the sky and lands on the Building 109 of Shibuya, Tokyo. I always though that would be incredible. At the same time, I know it’s hard because of how FE is. I visited many companies to express these ideas. When I went to Atlus, I was told that Shin Megami Tensei together with Fire Emblem is what I wanted. So, I soon said that to Intelligent Systems and started this very special collaboration. Oops! I shouldn’t say that the game takes place in the real world. We haven’t announced it, right?”

One would think that the package would include all of Injustice’s DLC. Keep in mind, however, that no official announcement has been made at this time.
