News regarding downloadable content for Fire Emblem: Awakening has been quiet as late, so most had thought that Nintendo could be done with that area. But not so fast! Nintendo has announced that a second wave of DLC kicks off on August 9.
The new DLC will be released under the “Kamigunshi e no Michi” label. All content will offer maps with new characters not included in the main campaign. There will be higher difficulty maps, maps with special situations, and maps that have players saving the future from Jayryuu Gimurei.
Two maps go on sale this Thursday for 200 and 250 yen. Through September 30, Nintendo will be discounting the first map to 100 yen.
