Overview
- Nintendo and Intelligent Systems confirmed on Monday that Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave will launch exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2 on September 17, with pre-orders and pricing now live.
- The game centers on a goddess-given time-travel power that lets the player revisit the Heroic Games to change the fates of four disappearing heroes and stop the demon god Balor.
- Fortuna’s Blessing is a new rewind mechanic that lets players roll battles back to any earlier point after each move so they can undo mistakes or try different tactics.
- Combat keeps Fire Emblem’s grid-based, turn-based system while adding Blaze Arts that use HP, class certification exams, explorable dungeons, and a city hub with recruitment and training.
- Nintendo also confirmed first-time series support for mouse-style controls via Joy-Con 2, detailed edition pricing from $69.99 to $119.99, and scheduled an Ask the Developer session for September 15 to answer remaining questions.
