Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem, the upcoming crossover RPG by Nintendo and Atlus, will take place in the modern world, a producer at Nintendo has revealed. Speaking with the Hobby Consolas magazine, Hitoshi Yamagami (Xenoblade, Pandoraās Tower, Fire Emblem: Awakening) shared, āFor a long time, Iāve wanted to create a Fire Emblem in our times, in the real world. Imagine a Pegasus that comes from the sky and lands on Building 109 of Shibuya, Tokyo. I always thought that would be incredible.ā āAt the same time, I know itās hard because of how Fire Emblem is. I visited many companies to express these ideas. When I went to Atlus, I was told that Shin Megami Tensei together with Fire Emblem is what I wanted. So, I soon said that to Intelligent Systems and started this very special collaboration.ā Yamagami added, āOops! I shouldnāt say that the game takes place in the real world. We havenāt announced it, right?ā The idea of a Fire Emblem game in modern times doesnāt sound as outrageous as one might think. In fact, Intelligent Systems, the seriesā developer, considered the idea of a modern-day or even sci-fi setting during the development of Fire Emblem: Awakening. That said, it wouldn’t be surprisingĀ at all forĀ Fire Emblem’s traditional medieval setting to play a role in the game as well. Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem has no release date. In fact, we know nothing about it, other than that itās an RPG and now that the modern-day world is probably involved. Source: Hobby Consolas via Wiitalia
