Fire Emblem Engage Gameplay
In Engage, you will play as Alear, a warrior who has been in slumber for 1000 years after helping defeat the Fell Dragon who brought ruin to the world. Eventually, you are woken up as the Fell Dragon returns, and tasked with helping defeat it by travelling across the continent of Elyos and collecting the Emblem Rings that represent powerful heroes from other games.
Fire Emblem Engage's combat is turn-based, where the player selects moves during an overview of the battlefield, and then it zooms in as they are completed. A big aspect of the combat are the Emblem Rings, which you can equip to combine the powers of other characters together. Outside of combat, there is also some exploration in hub areas where you can talk to other characters or shop vendors to purchase goods.
