Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes Switch NSP Free Download Romslab It’s been five whole years already since Nintendo’s Fire Emblem and Koei Tecmo’s Warriors series first collided, resulting in the rather magnificent Fire Emblem Warriors, a game we called “one of the best Musou outings yet” that “combines enjoyable combat with real-time tactics, faithfully paying tribute to the two franchises it fuses together.” Yes, we may have been somewhat concerned in the run-up to 2017’s hack-and-slash spectacular, fearing that we’d get little more than a bog-standard Musou effort with a quick Fire Emblem reskin, but our fears proved unfounded as Omega Force and Team Ninja managed to serve up a delightful melding of two unexpected bedfellows.

Here was a game that successfully took the strategy and relationship elements of Nintendo’s turn-based tactical RPG and fused them with the OTT action of Koei Tecmo’s long-running Musou franchise, resulting in a delightful experience that sits alongside the likes of Hyrule Warriors as the very best the genre has delivered in the past ten years. Of course, since 2017 we’ve seen the huge success of Fire Emblem: Three Houses on Switch, and so it comes as no real surprise that we find ourselves returning to the battlefields of Fódlan on June 24th in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, a game that looks set to improve upon everything we enjoyed about its predecessor. We’ve been getting stuck into the game over the past week or so in the build-up to our full review, and so far we reckon this one’s looking like a bit of a winner.

IT’S A THRILL TO SEE HOW THE CHARACTERS CHANGE

If you’ve already indulged in Fire Emblem Warriors you’ll mostly know the score here, with the game this time taking the entire cast from Three Houses. We counted 24 characters in total alongside a brand new protagonist, and flinging them headlong into Musou-style battles against hordes of enemies. The core of the gameplay here remains much the same as 2017’s effort, you’ll begin by choosing whether you want to play in either classic or casual mode, meaning your comrades will either resurrect or suffer permadeath, and you also get to make a choice between a “slow and steady” or “quick and efficient” mode that affects how much pre and post-battle planning and number-crunching you need to sit through.

Once you’ve made your choices in these regards you’re introduced to the game’s new protagonist, Shez, (who can be male or female) as they face off against Byleth, quickly suffering defeat and heading off to lick their wounds before joining forces with Edelgard, Dimitri, and Claude to defeat some nasty bandits, a chance encounter that sees them invited to join one of the game’s three houses before setting off on an all-new adventure. The first big difference to the core structure here in comparison to 2017’s effort is the fact you can choose to align with either Edelgard’s Black Eagles, Dimitri’s Blue Lions, or Claude’s Golden Deers as you set out to help them on their individual questlines. This choice of three paths not only boosts the replayability on offer, but also does much — as far as we’ve experienced in the first handful of chapters at least.

IT’S GREAT FUN LEARNING DIFFERENT COMBOS

To improve upon the story aspect of the previous Fire Emblem Warriors, an element which was fairly lacking. There’s simply far more to dig into here in terms of characters and narrative (not something that can often be said about a Musou game!) and early doors there are lots of cutscenes, dialogue choices, and discussions to get wrapped up in. We’ve chosen to run with Edelgard for our first playthrough, and between battles we’ve been spending plenty of time with Hubert, Ferdinand, Linhardt, Caspar, Felix et al, an aspect of proceedings that the game pushes through a smorgasbord of side activities that give you the opportunity to improve or deteriorate relationships — a factor which directly affects how well your comrades perform on the field of battle.

The battle camp element of Fire Emblem Warriors makes a return here and it has, as expected, been bolstered with new ways in which to interact with those in your party. Chores are back, allowing you to gain battle bonuses by teaming up in order to perform duties around camp, as is cooking, which enables you to bestow boons upon yourself and your party by filling your bellies with delicious meals before setting out to batter another angry horde of bad guys. Sticking with camp, you’ll also find a record keeper who allows you to replay key battles for XP and rewards, a facilities manager where you’ll upgrade your camp, giving you access to more ways in which to interact with comrades and gain boosts, a training area, blacksmith, battalion master, shopkeeper, armourer and more besides. Phew!

THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF DRAMATIC FRAMERATE DROPS

In short, between battles here you’ve got a wealth of ways in which to bide your time and dig into the signature relationship aspects of Fire Emblem. You’ll even get to have special conversations with key characters where you can head off for some alone time and can develop these relations further. We’re not quite sure how far or in what direction these special relations develop, we’re still quite early doors with the game, but fans of the series are certainly being well catered to here with regards to how much interaction they get to have with the entire cast from Three Houses. Taking into consideration that we’re only experiencing one house and its protagonists so far — and this has given us more than enough in the way of characters to set about levelling up, outfitting, equipping, and getting to know.

There certainly seems to be a ton to dig into here when you consider all three house paths and any potential crossing of fates that may or may not occur further down the line. On the battlefield, well, as we already mentioned, things are much the same as ever, with your chosen party of warriors charging around maps and using a mix of simple combos and flashy special moves in order to blast through enormous numbers of foes. Class-specific special moves, combat arts, and magic attacks all return, as does the Awakening mechanic that sees you temporarily power-boosted. You can also perform critical rushes and team up with any nearby party member — known here as “assigning adjutants”.
