{{FE8}} was released on October 7, 2004 in Japan and released internationally in 2005. It is the second title to be released internationally. ''The Sacred Stones'' is somewhat of a throwback to ''Gaiden'' in terms of gameplay; it reintroduces a traversable [[world map]] and features a wealth of [[monster]] enemies. It is a standalone title in terms of story and universe, the only ''Fire Emblem'' 'universe' to only have one game in its continuity. ''The Sacred Stones'' was developed in tandem with {{title|Path of Radiance}}. | {{FE8}} was released on October 7, 2004 in Japan and released internationally in 2005.

''The Sacred Stones''{{'}}s [[Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones prototype|prototype]] is largely incomplete, and is only truly playable to [[It's a Trap!|Chapter 8]], though the backbone for the rest of the game-maps that would clearly become the ones appearing in the final game and basic setup like deployment positions for player units-is implemented, it is largely in a very unpolished state. Both prototypes feature a wealth of debug menus and features, allowing the player to, for example, warp to any chapter from a menu at leisure and max a unit's stats with a few button presses. The prototypes also feature some early character designs differing from the final game, for instance, [[Heath]] has red hair with a silver tuft in ''The Blazing Blade''{{'}}s prototype instead of his green and silver hair in the final. | ||

It is a fairly straightforward remake, though it does feature some new chapters and cast additions compared to the original. | ||

{{TMSFE}} is the first major spinoff title relating to the ''Fire Emblem'' series, and released 26 December, 2015 in Japan and internationally in the following year. The game was originally announced in 2013, but vanished from the public eye after a single, very basic, teaser trailer. The crossover features primarily an original cast with some ''Fire Emblem'' characters appearing as [[Mirage (Tokyo Mirage Sessions)|Mirages]] as allies to the main cast and for [[boss]] and major antagonistic roles. The game has music idol and acting theme, all the main characters are, aside from the protagonist [[Itsuki]], major players in a music, television, or other related profession. The theming of the game and the fact that both ''Shin Megami Tensei'' and ''Fire Emblem'' take a backseat to the game's universe lead to mixed reception. The game's opening sales in Japan were fairly poor, selling 23,806 copies in its first week.<ref name="jp-firstweek">{{Cite web|author=Reggy|published=December 30th, 2015|retrieved=March 5th, 2016| url=http://personacentral.com/genei-ibun-roku-fe-debuts-with-poor-sales-in-japan/|site=Persona Central|title=Genei Ibun Roku #FE Debuts with Poor Sales in Japan with 23k Copies Sold}}</ref> | {{TMSFE}} is the first major spinoff title relating to the ''Fire Emblem'' series, and released 26 December, 2015 in Japan and internationally in the following year.

{{FE14}} is the second game on the Nintendo 3DS, released on June 25, 2015 in Japan, and internationally in 2016. After the first five chapters, it splits into three separate storylines: ''Birthright'', which is similar to ''Awakening'' in gameplay; ''Conquest'', which is somewhat more like the previous ''Fire Emblem'' games; and ''Revelation'', which also is similar to ''Awakening'' in terms of gameplay. ''Birthright'' and ''Conquest'' are sold separately, but the other game can be bought at a discount as DLC. ''Revelation'' is exclusively obtained through this method. ''Fates'' is also the first series title to be localized for the South Korean market, marking an expansion of influence for the series. | {{FE14}} is the second game on the Nintendo 3DS, released on June 25, 2015 in Japan, and internationally in 2016.

It features bite-sized gameplay and has characters from across the series. Initially its character selection focused on {{title|Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light}}/{{title|Mystery of the Emblem}}, {{title|Awakening}}, {{title|Fates}}, {{title|The Binding Blade}}, and {{title|The Blazing Blade}}, though its coverage has now extended to at least one character from every mainline game. | ||
