Nintendo has shown off more of the upcoming Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, and finally given the game a release date.
The next entry in Nintendo's long-running tactical role-playing series will land on September 17, 2026, exclusive to Switch 2. This is the first major launch in the franchise since 2023's Switch game Fire Emblem: Engage, which followed 2019's hugely successful Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
Fortune's Weave features the series' familiar turn-based gameplay and colorful characters, this time set in and around an enormous arena, site of a championship named the Heroic Games. "Discover an intertwining story of strength and steel in Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave, only on Nintendo Switch 2," reads an official blurb.
Announced during last September's Nintendo Direct, the game got a positive reception from fans who noted simularities to Three Houses (Heroes' Relics and Crests return, as does an older Sothis). Now, there's just a few months to go until its launch.
