Fire Emblem Warriors Season Pass Outlined
Given that both Fire Emblem and the Warriors series of games have a penchant for DLC, it should come as no surprise that a season pass has been announced for Fire Emblem Warriors. It will run $19.99 US / $25.79 CA and contain three DLC packs plus a bridal costume for Lucina.
The first DLC will arrive in December and contain the Fire Emblem Fates pack. The second will release in February and contain characters from Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon. The third comes in March and will have content from Fire Emblem Awakening. All of the packs will contain new playable characters, new weapons, and more. Each can also be purchased separately for $8.99 US / $11.59 CA.
You can purchase this season pass for the 3DS or Switch versions of the game. Fire Emblem Warriors launches on both platforms on October 20, 2017.
Fire Emblem Warriors, launching for the Nintendo Switch and New Nintendo 3DS family of systems on Oct. 20, is a game overflowing with action-packed content. But fans who want to expand their adventure can do so with a host of paid DLC options that begin launching this year. All DLC can be purchased separately for both Nintendo Switch and New Nintendo 3DS systems.
- Season Pass (Oct. 20, $19.99): The Fire Emblem Warriors Season Pass includes all three DLC packs, which become available as they release. Each DLC pack is filled with new playable characters and weapons. By purchasing the Season Pass for either the Nintendo Switch or New Nintendo 3DS version, players will receive a bridal costume for Lucina.
- DLC Pack #1 (Dec 2017, $8.99): The content in this pack is inspired by Fire Emblem Fates.
- DLC Pack #2 (Feb 2018, $8.99): Many of the characters and items in this DLC pack hail from Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon.
- DLC Pack #3 (March 2018, $8.99): Fans of Fire Emblem Awakening will love this DLC, as much of the content is themed after the classic game.
More details about each DLC pack will be revealed in the future.
The Fire Emblem Warriors game is compatible with the new Chrom and Tiki amiibo figures, which both launch on Oct. 20. These, along with other compatible Fire Emblem amiibo figures including Marth, Ike, Robin and Lucina, grant players weapons or materials when tapped. Up to five different compatible amiibo figures can be tapped per day.
Fire Emblem Warriors launches for Nintendo Switch, as well as New Nintendo 3DS, New Nintendo 3DS XL and New Nintendo 2DS XL systems on Oct. 20.
