Fire Emblem Engage Special Vocal Edition CD Launches in Japan, Featuring Two Iconic Tracks

Nintendo and developer Intelligent Systems continue to build on the legacy of the Fire Emblem franchise with the release of the Fire Emblem Engage Special Vocal Edition CD.

Announced via the official Japanese Fire Emblem Twitter account, this exclusive soundtrack collection is set to launch in Japan on March 15, and is already generating buzz among series fans and music collectors alike. Fire Emblem Engage, released for the Nintendo Switch in January 2023, has quickly earned acclaim for its engaging tactical gameplay and vibrant cast of characters.

Its dynamic soundtrack, a hallmark of the series, now takes center stage with the Special Vocal Edition CD, which showcases two standout musical tracks from the game: the opening theme "Emblem Engage!" performed by RYO, and the ending track "Fiery Bonds" by Rainy.

While the release contains just these two songs, both are presented in their full vocal arrangements, offering fans an opportunity to experience the music as intended by the creative team at Intelligent Systems. In addition to the audio tracks, the Special Vocal Edition CD includes a Blu-ray disc containing exclusive bonus content designed to further enrich the listening experience.

Purchasers will also receive a set of 26 character art sheets, allowing for personalized display and collection.

The CD is available to pre-order now from several major retailers, including Amazon Japan, where the price is set at ¥2,750 (approximately £17 or $21 USD).

International shipping options are being offered, but customers should be mindful of additional shipping and import costs. For fans who prefer digital formats, Nintendo has ensured accessibility by releasing the opening theme "Emblem Engage!" for download starting February 1, with "Fiery Bonds" scheduled to arrive on digital platforms on February 15.

This dual availability speaks to Nintendo's ongoing efforts to reach both traditional collectors and digital-first consumers within the growing global Fire Emblem community. Since its debut, Fire Emblem Engage has contributed significantly to the series’ expanding success on Nintendo Switch, following in the footsteps of previous installments like Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

Intelligent Systems, a longstanding partner of Nintendo, continues to innovate within the tactical RPG space, and the release of this Special Vocal Edition CD underscores the studio's commitment to celebrating the artistry behind its games—both visually and musically. As the Special Vocal Edition CD prepares to make its debut, Fire Emblem enthusiasts and music collectors have a unique opportunity to enhance their collections with a limited-run piece of Fire Emblem history.

The inclusion of both physical and digital formats ensures that players around the world can enjoy these iconic tracks, whether on disc or in digital libraries, solidifying Fire Emblem Engage’s musical legacy on the Nintendo Switch.
