Fire Emblem Engage features a vast selection of units to recruit into the ranks of the protagonist, Alear. Each has their own unique personality, background, and playstyles out on the battlefield. These include Kagetsu, the eccentric sword-weilding knight from the Kingdom of Elusia.

A far cry in terms of looks from other Western-fantasy-inspired characters, Kagetsu distinguishes himself by his eastern attire. That, topped with his excellent swordsmanship, makes him one of the best units in his native region. This guide details how to recruit Kagetsu into the party.

Here is an overview of the perky and charming swordsman unit:

Kagetsu is a retainer for Princess Ivy, who reigns over the Kingdom of Elusia. He will be recuitable in Chapter 11, and it will happen when players are fighting against Veyle and lose their Emblems while trying to escape.

Following this, he can be recruited as he will come across the party alongside Zelkov and Ivy. However, players will get a chance to meet him a little early on, in Chapter 8.

With incredibly high Spd and Dex stats, Kagetsu starts with the Swordmaster class. He has S rank profeciency with swords as well as access to the Run Through skill, allowing him to attack foes and move in their opposite direction. Alternately, he can be switched to the Paladin class using a Master Seal. WIth an A-tier profficiency, he brandishes a lance.

This also grants him access to the Pivot skill, which allows repositioning the unit to the opposite of an adjacent ally. Overall, Kagetsu is certainly all about gaining the upper hand with his positioning skills.

In Fire Emblem Engage, knowing where to place your units as well as thinking two steps ahead is the key to winning.
