posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Nintendo announced during its livestream presentation on Friday that Koei Tecmo Games, its Omega Force team, and its Team Ninja team, are developing a new game titled Fire Emblem Warriors (Fire Emblem Musou) for the Nintendo Switch. The game is slated for this year's holiday season. Nintendo unveiled a trailer for the game, that shows the sword Falchion (as it appears in the Fire Emblem Awakening game), hinting that Fire Emblem Awakening's Chrom will be a character in the game.
Omega Force is a subsidiary of Koei Tecmo, and it develops Koei Tecmo's Musou (Warriors) series of games, known for its action hack-and-slash gameplay where players control a character to fight hundreds of enemies at once.
Intelligent Systems' first Fire Emblem game launched in 1990 and spawned a series of tactical role-playing games. The Fire Emblem Fates games, the latest installments in the series, launched in Japan in June 2015 and in North America in February 2016.
