Nintendo's franchise Fire Emblem, launched thirty-five years ago, pioneered the tactical RPG genre with its unique character-driven narratives entwined into strategic gameplay. Centered on Marth, the young prince of Altea, the story integrates conflict and heroism against a backdrop of betrayal and vengeance. The game distinguished itself by offering a more profound exploration of characters, steering away from the traditional strategy focus on mass units, which profoundly influenced the genre and inspired various adaptations by other franchises and indie games alike.
Fire Emblem was one of the early titles that helped define grid-based tactics games.
Fire Emblem's big achievement was pushing strategy in a whole new direction by combining it with the core ideas of a party-based RPG.
