Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes was a significant announcement for the Nintendo Switch during the first Nintendo Direct of the year. The game would be the second attempt by the Koei Tecmo team to delve into this Nintendo IP and deliver something memorable. The first time around, they did a multiverse-style story that brought many past heroes together to save a new realm. But in the “sequel,” they did the same thing for Age of Calamity. They took an existing story and then turned it on its head. As a result, the game was very successful and sold over a million units on the Switch.
However, you might have noticed that the game has been buggy recently, especially if you’re beating it or playing it for the first time. Thankfully, a new patch was brought to the title, fixing many of these bugs.
For example, if you just bought the game and were trying to transfer the saved data you had from the demo, you might have been seeing a lot of crashes. That has been remedied. Furthermore, if you’ve beaten one of the paths for the title and noticed a wrong credits sequence after it, that has also been fixed.
Other fixes include stopping the game from crashing when putting specific battalions on players and ensuring that every level can progress. It’s always ironic to hear bugs like these happening months after release, but as Nintendo Switch Sports can attest, sometimes bugs come out of nowhere, and you need to squash them whenever they pop up.
If you’ve never played Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes in any form, the title takes place in an alternate history of the realm of Fodlan. In it, you play as the mercenary Shez, who, after an encounter with the “Ashen Demon,” eventually gets brought into Garreg Mach Monastery as a student for one of the Three Houses. After choosing a house, you’ll follow the storyline as an advisor to one of the future rulers of the land.
The story is much different than the game it’s based on, Fire Emblem Three Houses. The gameplay is the main reason for that. The title goes full force into the 1v1000 gameplay, where you can slice and blast enemies with all manner of abilities and weapons. Also, with multiple paths to choose from, you’ll get a different ending for each one.
So if you’re looking for a deep hack-and-slash title, the game is available for Nintendo Switch.
