Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 3 Comments
Genei Ibun Roku #FE is coming to Japan in late December. As the game is just a few months away, we’ll now be seeing more regular coverage of the title. Famitsu does have another update on Genei Ibun Roku #FE this week.
There are a few keywords for Genei Ibun Roku #FE like “Idolsphere”, “Mirage”, and “Mirage Master”. The Idolsphere is an alternate version of cities such as Shibuya and Harajuku where the Mirages come from. As for the plot, it’s about an average protagonist who stumbles into such a world. Mirages are mysterious beings from the Idolsphere dimension that lend their power to humans. Of course, they look like Fire Emblem series’ heroes and villains. Mirage Masters, who receive aid in battle from heroes such as Chrom and Sheeda, are those who hold a mysterious power that allows them to utilize Mirages by summoning them.
