Mechanics

Like every game from the series, Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia for 3DS is a tactical RPG with a turn-based combat system. During battles, we control a small unit of heroes. Using their special abilities and taking advantage of such things like lay of the land are some of the key elements leading to victory.

Like every proper RPG, Shadows of Valentia allows us to level up our characters, increase their skills, and learn new abilities. We can only take a handful of characters to battle, but during our adventures we will recruit many new heroes and build our party for specific encounters.

When we are not fighting, we can explore the game’s world, visit towns, and do numerous side quests. Additionally, there are many various dungeons for us to explore.

Technical Aspects

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia for 3DS is a full remake of Fire Emblem Gaiden, meaning that all audio-visual elements were recreated from scratch. The game offers 3D visuals, and its plot was enriched by the animated cutscenes created by Khara studio. It is also the first game in the series to have fully voiced dialogues.
