Pre-Order Guide: Fire Emblem: Three Houses Release Date, Special Edition

It’s been a long wait for Fire Emblem fans since the newest entry in the series, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, was first announced in January 2017. Since then, the release date has been pushed back several times, but the game will finally release on Nintendo Switch July 26. It’ll be the first Fire Emblem main title on a home console since Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, which released on the Wii back in 2007.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses will introduce fans to the continent of Fódlan, which is comprised of three nations who are currently at peace. At Fódlan’s center is the Church of Seiros and the game’s main setting, the Officer’s Academy. Like previous Fire Emblem games, your customizable character will act as an advisor–only this time, you’re actually a professor at the Academy, and your warriors are also your students, who are divided into three houses based on their respective nation.

The game will feature the same style of turn-based combat with life-or-death stakes, only now you can create battalions of troops to support individual warriors in battle. When you’re not on the battlefield, you’ll be able to explore the Academy and form relationships with students, which will in turn influence how they perform in battle.

Hardcore Fire Emblem fans may be interested in the Seasons of Warfare edition, which sells for $100. In addition to the game itself, the Seasons of Warfare edition comes with a sound selection CD, art book, steelbook case, and 2020 desk calendar.

Last time we checked, this edition was sold out at Amazon and Best Buy, but you can currently grab it at GameStop and Target. These types of special editions sell out quickly, so we suggest securing your copy now if you want it.
