The game was announced today in Nintendo's E3 Direct. A short trailer was also included:

This game really does look phenomenal. It's too bad we won't get it until 2019.

 

[xviper]

awesome, another reason to purchase the Switch, but the game looks like ps2, i expected a huge improvement from the 3ds games

 

[KevinKeene]

Absolutely phenomenal. I had hoped for a serious, medieval story and this looks very much like it. No more of the cringey Awakening-stuff ❤

Graphics are fine, you need to remember that the game is usually played in bird perspective. It zooms in during action, of course those scenes will look worse. But doesn't matter either way to me. The new group/squad-mechanic looks intriguing. Tell us more!

I would love to have you PS2 because none of games on my PS2 look like this.

 

[Scopa]

Day one. I love Fire Emblem.

 

[RPGCrazied]

The best thing Nintendo had in their conference, easily.

 

[cubicle47b]

I’m excited. The units/formations can be a really cool addition to the series.

No woman mc?

No waifus, no breeding, no face petting, no buy

Better that way. I always hated how Awakening had a player avatar, but then ALSO had Crom as a 'hero'.

This way we have one clear cut hero.

Btw I love the design of the bad (?) guy. Record of Lodoss-vibes

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

But then that means you can be a fail hero like the dude from Echoes...

The views, and how the menus and stats hub looks. It almost look like it could be a VR title?

Game looks phenomenal but if you have to buy multiple versions like Fates then I'm going to riot.

 

[Hinedorf]

More excited about this game than any other Switch game announced.

Mario Party/Smash Bros are instant buys for friend gaming aspect but this is the announcement I got excited for.

 

[Smasher89]

3 houses, hoshido, nohr and place never to be talked about is what it tells to me.

 

[michaelius]

Amazing I'll have to buy Switch before this releases

 

[NecroGiggles]

I 2nd that!

 

[CloudStrife_ca]

This will be a must buy for me, since I'd say the Wii I've really enjoyed the Fire Emblem games, really got into the 3DS ones.

Watching the trailer gave me a "oh shit!" moment. Massive hype. Looks like they got inspired by grancest. I for one, welcome the return to unit vs unit combat of early turn based games.

I don’t know what “grancest” is and I am afraid to Google it...

 

[Väinömäinen]

This is what I was praying to see from the E3.

But then the music turned to J-Pop and killed my mood.

(I like J-Pop in places it fits)

It's a war anime like record of lodoss war. Has nothing to do with incest as far as I know.

Does anyone of Europe GAF have any info on when this games collectors edition will be available for preorder (preferably at amazon)?
