A new entry in the Fire Emblem series may be in the works for Nintendo Switch 2, judging from a recent online discovery.

As spotted by Doctre81, a veteran Japanese 3D character modeler who has worked with Square Enix, SEGA, and Cygames, among other publishers, revealed on LinkedIn that they have worked from January 2025 until April 2025 on the "sequel of Nintendo's SRPG (tactical role-playing game) on Switch 2". While the 3D character modeler hasn't mentioned the name of the game, or the series it belongs to, there's a very good chance this sequel is a new entry in the Fire Emblem series, as the other notable tactical role-playing series by the Japanese company, Advance Wars, hasn't seen a new entry in a very long time, and it may not be as popular nowadays as to warrant a sequel, considering how Advance Wars 1+2: Re‑Boot Camp did not set the sales charts on fire.

The fact that the 3D character modeler only worked for a few months in the game may also suggest this isn't a new entry in the series, but possibly a Nintendo Switch 2 upgrade for one of the Fire Emblem games released on the original Switch.

Well, it's a given and I don't see how this is even a rumor at all.

They need to give us patches for Switch 1 FE games btw, they're taking too long already.
 
I hope it's a classic style FE.
But after Engage didn't review or sell as well, I expect they'll go back to the Persona inspired style of Three Houses, which I'm not very excited about.

Will the graphics look decent this time?

Engage looked pretty decent for Switch.
The art direction was horrible, but the actual visuals weren't too bad.
 
Say what you want about FE Engage's story and character design but in my opinion that game had one of the best FE gameplay.

If they deliver type of gameplay with better story then I'm happy.

The gameplay and map design was so good in engage, some of the best in the series.

Writing was terrible.

Yup I 100% agree with that, if they give us same great gameplay as Engage but with better story and characters then we would have great FE game in our hands.
 
I hope we get both a remake and a new game, there are many old episodes who could benefit from a glow-up, and there's something special about the pre-Awakening game design of the series.

Story wise I'm not expecting anything crazy, if it's as good as 3H and better than Fates and Engage I'm good.
