History VideoGame / FireEmblemWarriors

''Fire Emblem Warriors'' was released on UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch and [[UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS New Nintendo 3DS]] on September 28, 2017 in Japan and October 20th in western countries. Three DLC packs have been released, each one titled after one of the three main represented games and all three include new characters, History modes, and costumes.

''Fire Emblem Warriors'', known as (ファイアーエムブレム無双 ''Fire Emblem Musou'') in Japanese, is a SpinOff of the ''VideoGame/FireEmblem'' franchise produced by Creator/{{Nintendo}} and Creator/IntelligentSystems in collaboration with Creator/KoeiTecmo, and developed by ''VideoGame/DynastyWarriors'' developer Omega Force and ''VideoGame/NinjaGaiden'' developer Team Ninja. Announced by Nintendo during the Nintendo Switch Presentation on January 12, 2017, ''Fire Emblem Warriors'' takes the gameplay of ''VideoGame/DynastyWarriors'' and gives it a ''Fire Emblem'' theme, similar to sister game ''VideoGame/HyruleWarriors'' being modeled off of ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda''.

* WeaponOfChoice: Each character is restricted to one type of weapon, but on the other hand, they can wield any non-character exclusive weapon of that type. These unique weapons, like Corrin and her brothers' legendary weapons and Falchions wielded by Marth, Chrom and Lucina, have their damage values scale with their users; while they may be lacking in raw damage output, they make up for it with a large amount of slots to place skills in, as well as being upgrade with Scrolls and Opusus via Mastery and Sanctuary Crests, respectively.

* PunctuatedForEmphasis: In Owain and Takumi's support, the latter tries the former's "special" technique by [[CallingYourAttacks shouting some names for it.]] He fumbles on his words, but Owain tells him that "That. Was. INCREDIBLE!

* UpToEleven: The base game allows for unlocked personal weapons and 5-star Brave weapons to reach 240 attack power. The DLC expansions introduce the Hero line of weapons and another artifact to further strengthen personal weapons up to 720 attack power.
** It's possible to focus on a single warrior and level them up, gaining relevant crests and a combination of powerful skills to make them a force to be reckoned with. Any time you don't have your main character, you'll feel the difference, and once you do have them, you'll likely be tearing forts down in seconds.

* MovesetClone: Due to [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters the sheer roster size]] and how classes work in ''Fire Emblem'' games, few characters have fully unique movesets, though some moveset clones do get custom strong attack effects and all get unique Specials. Characters who are moveset clones of each other include:

* RecycledScript: History Mode as a whole is this. Additionally, a small amount of the support conversations are recycled from previous conversations. Lucina and Lissa's is similar to the C-Support with Lucina's sibling, and Marth and Caeda's is their first and second base conversations from ''New Mystery of the Emblem''.

* DifficultySpike:
** There's a spike in difficulty in Chapter 5 once a brainwashed Robin enters the map as an enemy. The first thing to note is that he makes a beeline for Chrom, who you need to keep alive to prevent a GameOver and probably can't handle Robin on his own due to a terrible Resistance stat. The second thing to note is that Robin comes with support from another mage, which makes fighting him more difficult than previous boss enemies since you have to deal with both at once.
** Chapter 13 starts you off being hounded by the brainwashed Corrin, Ryoma and Xander -- all of whom are powered-up to insane levels and can kill anyone in a matter of seconds -- while you're given the task of capturing forts. You're also restricted to a four-man party with no AI support.
** Any map with Oboro will typically be fairly tough due to Oboro's insane defense, and considering how early in the game she is an opponent (on a timed mission no less), she can be a serious hassle.
** Getting Anna's Memento during [[spoiler:the rematch with Darios]] can be infuriating once you realize you can't force him to flinch and he deals way more damage. The reason: you cannot finish any side objectives.

Intelligent Systems and Koei Tecmo would later collaborate again for both the next mainline ''Fire Emblem'' game, ''[[VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses Three Houses]]''. ''Three Houses'' later received its own spin-off, ''VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes'', another ''Warriors'' game focusing specifically on the ''Three Houses'' universe.
