How romance works in Fire Emblem Engage

Now that Fire Emblem Engage is out within the wild, gamers is perhaps questioning “what the hell do I’ve to do to get some lovin’ round right here?” For those who’re not preventing each battle and in the event you’re used to different Hearth Emblem techniques, it may be straightforward to overlook the occasion that enables your toothpaste-haired champion to hook up with one of many homies. I’m right here to assist.

Gamers aware of previous Hearth Emblems may suppose reaching “S” help rank with a personality gives you the choice to romance them in Interact. Nevertheless, there isn’t any “S” rank accessible within the recreation, which can lead gamers to imagine “romancing” somebody isn’t attainable in any respect. It’s, however it works just a little in another way than the way you may anticipate.

For starters, the choice to “romance” a companion doesn’t unlock till comparatively late within the recreation. The triggering occasion occurs in a paralogue that turns into accessible shortly after the late-game plot twist that leads to Alear turning into an Emblem themself. As you gather the 12 Emblem rings, you’ll discover that some paralogues require that you simply struggle towards your Emblems to unlock their max bond degree. When you received’t struggle towards Alear, finishing their paralogue will internet you the pact ring that you may give to any companion with an “A” rank, thus permitting you to “romance” them.

It’s additionally not fairly a straight-up “romance.” Alear is allowed to “bond” with characters no matter gender, however a few of these bonds can be romantic whereas others can be platonic. So whereas it’s attainable for a male Alear to bond with, say, huge daddy thiccums Vander, since he’s one of many platonic choices, you’re gonna need to rely by yourself headcanon to do the romantic heavy lifting.

I romanced the dancer Seadall, not for any actual attraction (my coronary heart without end belongs to Claude Fire Emblem) however as a result of he was the cutest individual I had the very best rank with. When you give the pact ring to your chosen, they’ll depart you with a pleasant memento on the desk in Alear’s chambers. I obtained a shawl. Seadall likes scarves.
