Development of [[Fire Emblem|The Blazing Blade]] began after the release of Nintendo's crossover fighting game [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]], which featured the characters [[Super Smash Bros. Melee/Marth|Marth]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Melee/Roy|Roy]] on its roster. Influenced by the reception to the Fire Emblem characters outside Japan, The Blazing Blade was designed with the potential new international audience in mind. The game was structured to open with a [[Fire Emblem/Lyn|prologue story starring the character Lyn]] to specifically serve as an extended tutorial and introduction to Fire Emblem gameplay basics for series newcomers.
The game is a prequel to [[Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade]], set on the continent of Elibe. It tells the story of Lyn, Eliwood, and Hector, three young lords of the Lycian lineage who journey to find Eliwood's father and later thwart a larger conspiracy threatening the stability of Elibe. The gameplay, which draws from earlier Fire Emblem entries, features tactical combat between armies on a grid-based map. Characters are assigned different character classes that affect abilities and are subjected to permanent death if defeated in battle.
