Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Early reports are in for Fire Emblem: Three Houses’ debut sales in the UK.

In its first week, the game managed to top the charts. We’re also hearing that it sold nearly double the launch sales of Fire Emblem Awakening. On top of that, it had more than double the combined sales of the first two Fire Emblem Fates (Birthright / Conquest) games.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses secured the number one spot by a wide margin. It doubled up on the boxed sales of Wolfenstein: Youngblood, which also came out a few days ago.

Summoning Focus: Weekly Revival 8 has kicked off in Fire Emblem Heroes. 5-star Heroes who appeared before the start of Book II are here. Focus Heroes have an initial appearance rate of 4%!

It’s also been announced that Voting Gauntlet: Beach Ballot Battle is starting soon – specifically August 1. Players can train up the Hero they wish to support and prepare for the event’s arrival.

A massive game arrived on Switch yesterday in the form of Fire Emblem: Three Houses. This is the first console Fire Emblem in the series in quite some time, and the first true entry in the series on Switch.

We imagine that many of you have started playing through Three Houses already. If that’s the case, how are you feeling about it so far? Which house did you choose? Share your thoughts with us in the comments below.

Summoning Focus: Heroes with Close Def Skills is now live in Fire Emblem Heroes. A trio of Heroes with Close Def skills are available as part of a 5-star summoning focus. These characters have up to Def/Rest+6 during combat if their foes initiates combat and uses sword, lance, axe, dragonstone, or beast damage.

You’ll be able to participate in Summoning Focus: Heroes with Close Def Skills until August 5.

This week’s issue of Famitsu has a big Fire Emblem: Three Houses developer interview. Director Toshiyuki Kusakihara of Intelligent Systems, along with Nintendo’s Genki Yokota, participated in the lengthy discussion.

During the interview, Kusakihara and Yokota discussed Fire Emblem: Three Houses origins, what it was like to work with Koei Tecmo, the game’s Japanese title, what to expect from the Expansion Pass, and more. You can read our full translation below.

Fire Emblem Heroes has replaced the male voice actor of Byleth, and the same could end up happening with Fire Emblem: Three Houses. This all came about after Christopher Niosi, who played the character’s role, admitted to abuse in a lengthy Tumblr post. That can be found in full here.

Niosi was originally featured in a recent trailer for Fire Emblem Heroes. However, the credit disappeared from the character page, and a new trailer has since been uploaded with re-recorded lines and a credit given to Zach Aguilar.

As things stand, Niosi is still featured in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. While some fans think Nintendo may end up replacing him in the Switch game, we’ll have to wait and see if that actually happens.
