Anticipation: Fire Emblem Awakening

Title: Fire Emblem Awakening
Genre: Tactical Role-Playing
Origin: Nintendo 3DS
Developer: Intelligent Systems
Publisher: Nintendo
Release Date: February 4th, 2013

To be particularly fair, I've never played any of the Fire Emblem games since they've started coming over in the west with the seventh title in the series, but after a long time of waiting, I'll finally own my first Fire Emblem game, Fire Emblem: Awakening.

The Fire Emblem series has a rather unique history to it, in which it was never released outside of Japan, nor no one knew about the series or characters until Super Smash Bros. Melee, when Marth and Roy appeared as newcomers. The interest in both characters led Nintendo to release the Fire Emblem games in both the United States as well as Europe.

Gameplay wise, throughout the series, it's a role-playing game that involves strategy, by controlling a group of warriors to take down various enemies in a turn based system.

Awakening's story follows the prince Chrom in his adventures throughout the world of Ylisse. He notices a neighbouring nation act suspiciously, and it is up to him and his band of soliders, known as the Shepherds in order to keep the country at peace.

I feel that there's a lot to explain that goes into detail, so because of that, there will be a continuation of this blog next time around.

Watch the trailer right here: More stuff coming soon!
