Rumor: Screenshots And Details For Next Mainline Fire Emblem Game Leaked Online
A new rumor has surfaced about the next mainline Fire Emblem game after Three Houses.
The rumors initially began with a post from industry insider Emily Rogers on Famiboards, where she claimed that the next mainline Fire Emblem game was “already complete”, and would be a brand new entry into the series originally planned as a 30th anniversary game. She also dropped some minor details about the game’s protagonist and plot:
- Upcoming Fire Emblem is a new game, not a remake. Brand new story.
- Collaboration between Intelligent Systems, Koei Tecmo and Gust (division of Koei Tecmo Holdings).
- Gust heavily assisted with the visuals / graphics. Graphics are an improvement over “Three Houses”.

- New “Emblems” gimmick allows players to summon “FE characters from the past” for your squad.
