(Japanese: TCG ファイアーエムブレム 0(サイファ) TCG Fire Emblem 0 (Cipher)) is a collectible card game based on the characters and settings of the Fire Emblem series. It is the second card game based on Fire Emblem, after the original Fire Emblem Trading Card Game. Unlike its predecessor, 0 (Cipher) is developed and published in-house by Intelligent Systems.[1] 0 (Cipher) began publication in 2015, as part of the release of Fire Emblem Fates, and currently has two published series of cards with at least one more upcoming.

The game currently adapts characters from six games, with numerous other games in the series scheduled to join the line-up. The vast majority of cards depict actual characters from the games, but from series 2 onward, Cipher has begun to occasionally introduce new characters exclusively for the TCG, such as Emma and Shade.

Unlike the original TCG, which relied primarily on a single artist to illustrate the majority of its cards, the cards of 0 (Cipher) feature illustrations from a very wide variety of artists, many of whom have no prior attachment to Fire Emblem; art contributions 0 (Cipher) are overseen by art director Daisuke Izuka, who also contributes some card illustrations himself.[2] Among these artists are several returning designers from earlier Fire Emblem games, including Sachiko Wada, Rika Suzuki and Senri Kita.
