Fire Emblem Shadows is a 2025 social deduction strategy video game developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo for Android and iOS platforms. It marks the second mobile entry in the Fire Emblem franchise after Fire Emblem Heroes debuted in 2017. This title diverges from traditional tactical gameplay seen in earlier installments, instead adopting a multiplayer social deduction format.

In combat, players face a hidden traitor among their group who can undermine others. Following battles, participants must vote on suspected traitors and then confront them directly. The game includes an in-game narrative divided into two segments. The light half follows characters like Kurt, a royal forced to escape her homeland when it is invaded by the Goddess of Shadows, Fenris. The dark half explores character motivations, particularly focusing on servants of both Fenris and the Light Goddess Naga as they clash in conflict.

The game launched on September 25, 2025. Critics gave it unfavorable reviews, citing simplistic gameplay and shallow social deduction mechanics.
