Fire Emblem: Awakening

About a month away from its release,  Nintendo of America is really starting to get the ball rolling for Fire Emblem: Awakening with releasing a very short, but very sweet trailer.

Back in early December, Nintendo of America started to do something a bit more unique with introducing the games central characters. They’re revealing each character each week on the Nintendo 3DS’ Facebook page. So far, four characters have been introduced  – Chrom, Frederick, Lisa, and Marth.

Fire Emblem: Awakening
The prince of Ylisse and descendant of the Hero-King, Chrom leads a band of soldiers called Shepherds to defend the borders of his kingdom.
Fire Emblem: Awakening
Chrom’s lieutenant, Frederick. Frederick is a Ylissean knight who is sincere to a fault. He demands tremendous effort from the other Shepherds who fight alongside him to defend the borders of Ylisse.
Fire Emblem: Awakening
Chrom’s tomboyish little sister, Lissa, joins the Shepherds and fights alongside her brother to defend Ylisse from Plegian bandits.
Fire Emblem: Awakening
Appearing in Fire Emblem Awakening as a masked knight, Marth carries the legendary Falchion sword and appears out of nowhere to save Chrom and the other Shepherds.

Fire Emblem: Awakening will be released in North America on February 4th, while the PAL region is scheduled to release in the Summer.

If you pre-order at Gamestop you get a nice art book with your purchase.
