Is Fire Emblem Engage on Xbox?
The latest entry into the Fire Emblem franchise, Fire Emblem Engage, is set to release on Jan. 20. But will it be on Xbox?
The Fire Emblem franchise is a long-running series of fantasy tactical role-playing games. Fire Emblem Engage is the latest addition, having been announced in September 2022. It will have similar gameplay to the series' previous entries, but will add in the use of Emblem Rings, allowing units to fight alongside the lords of previous games.

The story centers around legendary heroes called Emblems, who grant incredible power to the one who holds the 12 Emblem Rings. As the ritual nears, Alear – the Divine Dragon of prophecy – awakens to collect the rings and bring peace to the land. Sombron – the Fell Dragon and ancient nemesis of the Divine Dragon – has also risen and seeks the rings for himself.
Given the series popularity, players might be wondering if they'll have a chance to play it on Xbox.
Will Fire Emblem Engage Release on Xbox Consoles?
At the time of writing, no Xbox port of Fire Emblem Engage has been announced. The game will be a Nintendo Switch exclusive, similar to Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
Fire Emblem games have only appeared on Nintendo consoles in the past, never receiving a PlayStation or Xbox port. It is unlikely that the tradition will break with Fire Emblem Engage.
