Fire Emblem Engage<\/a> arrived on the scene last week, and as usual, dataminers have been sifting through the game’s files to uncover hidden secrets. One, in particular, that seems to have gained some traction focuses on the latest entry’s codename.<\/p>\n

Based on previous datamines, it’s known how Fire Emblem games follow a certain pattern when it comes to their development codenames. As explained by modder and dataminer ‘DeathChaos25<\/strong><\/a>‘ on Twitter, Fire Emblem Engage is internally coded as “Iron19”. Where it gets interesting is the fact the previous mainline game Fire Emblem: Three Houses<\/a> is codenamed “Iron17”.<\/p>\n

There’s a numbered gap between these major entries, even though they’re back-to-back. This naming convention also only<\/em> applies to the mainline series, so spin-offs<\/a> have different codenames. Fire Emblem Warriors<\/a> supposedly “didn’t get this treatment” and Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes<\/a> is apparently codenamed “Seasons”<\/a>.<\/p>\n
