Nintendo is gradually revealing what it has planned for all of its flagship series during the Switch 2’s launch year, and today, during an hour-long Direct, it was Fire Emblem’s turn. Nintendo revealed that its next Fire Emblem project will be Fortune’s Weave, an entirely new entry in the series.
As is often the case for Fire Emblem games, the bulk of Fortune’s Weave’s debut trailer revealed an all-new cast of characters. However, there is at least one familiar face making a return - Sothis. Sothis was shown sitting on a throne at the end of the trailer, suggesting this could well be a direct sequel to Three Houses.
Nintendo didn’t provide an exact release date for Fortune’s Weave, just that it will be here in 2026. It will also be a Switch 2 exclusive, suggesting that the Fire Emblem series may already be moving on from Nintendo’s last-gen hardware.
EDELGARD DID NOTHING WRONG YURI IS ALWAYS RIGHT
can they work on the switch emulator so that i can pirate this
Heyyyyyyy it’s a Three Houses sequel of sorts. Probably won’t play this one for a while, since the Switch 2 is super expensive, but it seems cool
Emulator gang gang
Shoulda called it 4 Houses
Omg I’m so excited
Nintendo introduce a new franchise challenge impossible
My uncle Nintendo told me Miyamoto said no.
okay trailer has me going “LETS FUCKING GO 5 MORE YEARS OF DISCOURSE”
My guesstimation of the story is it’s either most likely taking place beyond Fodlan or least likely taking place in Fodlan but right around or before the rebellion of Nemesis.
I’m begging them to stop with the slithering dudes please just make a normal yuri plot please please
What if it’s about slithering gay ladies?
I do like evil women 🤔
Young adult Sothis makes me think this’ll be a distant future thing - like how Awakening had young adult Tiki (who was a kid in the original game)
It could be. It throws me off because that could be Sothis at the height of her power in the distant past, or Sothis after a timelapse down the road of 3 houses but somehow beyond Fodlan’s locket
my gamer prayers are answered if this is actually connected to 3 houses
please be good please be good please be good
I predicted fire emblem 4 houses, im so happy
Also i think it may be based on the continent claude’s father was from
If this plays like 3 Houses in addition to the obvious plot connection, I’m in. Will probably sell me a Switch 2. I wasn’t super impressed with Engage and thought it was a step back.
Engage had very fun gameplay but the story is SO BAD and has so many weird moments like uhh… zoom ins on a dragon girls feet? Very special. Three houses had their best plot but the bar is on the floor really. I expect the plot here to be very bad tbh. Maybe the gameplay will be good?
Fire Emblem fans have never struggled a day in their lives
Only in the 90s when we didn’t know what we were missing lmao
Will this finally get rid of all that damn annoying tactics and strategy game stuff that people definitely hate about the Fire Emblem series and just focus on the waifu collecting anime girl creepy dating sim stuff that everyone just loves about the series?
