Each Fire Emblem game introduces a cast of characters you are able to recruit and bring into your army to battle with. Fire Emblem Engage doesn’t have quite as deep of a social system as the previous entry, but still does have a handful of characters that you can miss out on recruiting if you don’t know what to do. While the process of recruiting these units isn’t complex, if you fail to do so at the right time and miss your chance, there’s no going back to get them. To make sure you don’t miss out on filling your team with every possible character, follow this guide on how to recruit every missable character in Fire Emblem Engage.
