Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes pre-order

In partnership with Koei Tecmo, Nintendo will be publishing Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes on Switch this summer, and we’ve put together an early pre-order guide including all available bonuses.

Unlike the original Fire Emblem Warriors that featured a mashup of previous titles, Three Hopes specifically focuses on the 2019 game Three Houses. We actually don’t know a whole lot at present, but expect plenty of hack and slash gameplay as is traditional for the Musou genre. Edelgard, Dimitri, and Claude will all be returning. It’s also been confirmed that Three Hopes will feature a new route based on Three Houses.
