List of characters in Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE
There are seven playable Mirage Masters along with their seven corresponding Mirage partners. There are also three major supporting cast characters that are not controlled by the player, but can give benefit through Backup Skills.
Development
This title was announced in the January 23, 2013 Nintendo Direct broadcast in North America, Europe, and Japan, in the form of a brief teaser, under the title of Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem.[1] Nothing else was revealed about it at the time beyond the fact that it is currently in development. In the broadcast, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata claimed that the crossover is an example of Nintendo taking a new approach to game production, as necessitated by the scale of games for Wii U.[2] To illustrate the crossover, the trailer featured stock art of a number of characters from both series, with the Fire Emblem side showing every Lord from The Binding Blade onward.
After an absence of over two years from the public eye, the game made its formal debut with a trailer in the April 10, 2015 Nintendo Direct broadcast.[3] The trailer revealed the game was inspired more by Persona, a prominent sub-series of Megami Tensei, and shares many of its concepts. It showed the game to be set in an alternate-universe version of Tokyo, which crosses over with another realm where Fire Emblem-esque entities appear to dwell; in this trailer, the only actual Fire Emblem characters definitively shown were Tiki, here depicted as a young pop idol, Gangrel and Aversa, reinterpreted as enemy monsters, and Chrom, Tharja, Virion, Cain, Caeda, and Draug as Mirage partners.
The game was released in Japan on December 26, 2015, with international releases following in June 2016.
Reception

In Famitsu, Tokyo Mirage Sessions was awarded 34/40, with its reviewers praising the game's premise, artstyle, and quality gameplay typical of an Atlus title; one reviewer, however, lamented the game's limited Fire Emblem references.[4] Tokyo Mirage Sessions had a very poor opening week of sales in Japan according to Famitsu. It sold only 23,806 copies in its first week on the market, a figure well below other recent Fire Emblem, Megami Tensei, and Persona titles.[5]
