Switch Online: The first Fire Emblem to leave Japan is on its way

Nintendo have announced that next week will see the first entry in the Fire Emblem series that left Japan, come to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, Fire Emblem. It was known in Japan as Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade and the names do get swapped around.

In Fire Emblem, the nation of Lycia stands on the precipice of war after centuries of peace. Turmoil grows as noble houses plot treason, allies become enemies and armies stand poised for combat … all while a mysterious figure manipulates empires from the shadows. Now Lyn, along with Eliwood and Hector, must amass their own army to fight back against the forces that would destroy everything they hold dear – and before the world is burned to ash.

As the date is marked as the 23rd for both Japan and the USA, odds are we will see it land here on that date, like around 11am or 12pm.
