The WhatsNext verdict
For Fire Emblem fans who want large-scale action with familiar heroes and battlefield tactics: Take direct control of Fire Emblem characters, cut through large groups of enemies, and issue strategic commands during battle. Tradeoff: The action centers on fighting crowds, so it offers less of the turn-based tactical play associated with the main series.
