While previous titles such as Fire Emblem Awakening feature characters pulled from titles set outside their specific world and canon as DLC or other bonus content, Engage is the first mainline series entry to directly feature characters from all preceding core titles in the central narrative since the second game, Fire Emblem Gaiden.

The character designs were created by freelance artist Mika Pikazo, whose input and influence provided the basis for the game's aesthetic.
