Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave is confirmed to be bringing dungeons back to the series after they were last seen in the 3DS remake Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia.
This year’s Summer Game Fest was a pretty big one in general, with the Nintendo Direct being the perfect finale to proceedings, giving us the best show of the lot,. revealing The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, giving us a new look at Kingdom Hearts 4, and more. Another of the highlights was Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave, which got a massive new trailer explaining the game and revealing its release date.
Except, despite feeling like a proper deep dive, it turns out Nintendo hid a major detail from the Nintendo Direct. On the store page for the game, Nintendo describes some of the things you can do. “You can explore the world to strengthen your army and find resources. Train and recruit allies in Dagsion, or venture out into the land to fight bandits and monsters, delve through dungeons, and more.”
Watch On
There’s an interesting detail in there, that being “delve through dungeons.” These haven’t been a feature in the series since 2017’s 3DS remake Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia (which was itself a remake of 1992’s Japan-only Fire Emblem Gaiden for Super Famicom). As Nintendo Everything points out, there’s actually a shot in the trailer that shows what looks like a dungeon, with Leda opening a chest, so strangely, Nintendo just didn’t point this out at the time.
Fire Emblem games tend to be fairly long in the first place, and dungeon crawling is likely only going to add to that. So, if you’re planning to pick up Fortune’s Weave in September (already a very busy month for game releases), you can probably expect it to steal quite a lot of your free time.
Xenoblade Chronicles Genesis is coming in 2027, and it looks very different to Monolith Soft’s last JRPG trilogy.
