Fire Emblem: Kakusei (ファイアーエムブレム覚醒, Faiaa Emuburemu Kakusei),[3] literally "Fire Emblem: Awakening", is the latest announced Fire Emblem game, being made for the Nintendo 3DS. The game is set to be released in Japan on April 19, 2012, with a worldwide release unconfirmed.[3] The game takes place on an unknown continent, featuring Krom, the prince of the Kingdom of Iris.
Story
There are two sleeping dragons, one which sided with man, one the sworn destroyer. Two heroes are marked with the symbols of the dragons; their meeting marks the awakening of these two dragons and the end of the world.[4]

- Krom (クロム, Kuromu) - The main character, who wields the Sealing Sword Falchion.
- Liz (リズ, Rizu) - A playable character who may be Krom's sister.
- Player Unit - a unit created by the player as his or her own unit. The second main character of the game after Krom.[4]

Gameplay
- The overworld acts similarly to Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones in which you can walk across the map to different towns and places to battle or purchase items at the shop.
- A new included feature called "Duel system" activates when you attack an enemy unit when you are beside another ally unit. This mode powers up the abilities of the attacking unit as well as the ally unit helping with attacks.[4]
Pre-release information
Fire Emblem: Kakusei was announced only briefly on September 13, 2011 at Nintendo's 3DS Conference in Japan, then known only as Fire Emblem 3DS. Two videos were released on the official website. It was noted by IGN staff that its graphics look better than Radiant Dawn for the Wii.[5] In addition, one new feature of the game will be two-on-one battles.[6] The game will feature the return of a world map for traveling between the different towns and purchasing items, something that has not appeared since The Sacred Stones.
According to the Japanese Nikkei newspaper, Kakusei will be the first Nintendo game to offer paid downloadable content, allowing the purchase of additional content through credit cards or prepaid cards, each for several hundred yen.[7][8]
A third trailer was released during the December 27 Nintendo Direct press conference. Although the segment was less than two minutes long (running from roughly 34:25 to 36:08), many new pieces of information were acquired. Most importantly, a title, Fire Emblem: Kakusei, and a Japanese release date, April 19, 2011, were revealed. New characters were revealed, along with the fact that every character appears to be voiced, a first for the series. Several former games are mentioned in the video: Gaiden and Seima no Kōseki, in reference to the traversable world map, and Seisen no Keifu, Thracia 776, Seima no Kōseki, Sōen no Kiseki, and Akatsuki no Megami, in reference to the skill system. The skill system in this game will be more open than in previous games, and skills can be rearranged with more freedom than in the past.[3]
