If you enjoy the Fire Emblem series, you'll get a decent amount of enjoyment out of this game. It's very similar to the Dynasty Warrior games that come out pretty frequently, except with the newer cast of Fire Emblem characters. Most of the characters are from the last 2 3DS games, so if you enjoyed them, you'll enjoy seeing them again here. Each character is unique and voiced as you would expect them to. The game can get a little stale at times as you are basically doing the same thing over and over just on different maps, so to get around this I recommend playing in smaller chunks.

Bought this game on a whim, was not disappointed. I've never really played Fire Emblem, so I didn't really know the characters much outside of Super Smash Bros, but I was instantly hooked on the smooth character designs and flashy fighting sequences. The gameplay is definitely the most enjoyable part-- the aforementioned graphics are exciting; the Weapon Triangle, type advantage/disadvantages, and Pair Up system add an excellent strategy element to what would be just a kill-everything fighting game; and the ability to switch between and command characters adds more mulitasking and strategy to the mix. Of course, the game is not without its flaws. The story is rather lacking in terms of real depth and development, which didn't surprise me much. There's also a certain amount of grinding that may or may not be necessary to progress once "late-game" hits (I don't actually know for sure, as I haven't gotten to that point yet), which, compounded with the fact that the game likely starts to become stale after a couple dozen hours of play, might be a turn-off to some people. Still, the game is very enjoyable, and is probably worth buying just to experience the flashy graphics and unique fusion of strategy and hack-and-slash. Fire Emblem fans should buy it 100%.Read full review

If you're a fan of musou games this will definitely scratch the itch. I enjoy how you can choose to micromanage your units or have a blanket A.I. to take over for you. On Lunatic mode you have to pay attention to the weapon weaknesses. I'd say it's a fun game to play of you want to blow off some steam or just relax a little by cutting through hordes of enemies.

Really good switch game! Honestly the only thing I didn't like in the game was the voices because they were a bit cheesy, however the gameplay is solid and definitely a great buy! Highly recommended!

We were hoping for a classic, turn-based RPG or at LEAST some elements reminiscent of such games that came earlier in the series. This plays more like a Dynasty Warriors game with little to no challenge, likely intended for child-aged or beginner-level gamers looking for something colorful and silly to play and watch as opposed to an actual epic with deep, complex gameplay elements. If you like modern anime and the story-telling there, you'll love this game. If you're looking for complex gameplay with intriguing plot twists beyond your average cliches and cheap, romance-related hooks, you're better off sticking to the PS1 and PS2 era of games.
