When connected to the internet, players can purchase the paid downloadable content (DLC), which includes new maps and episodes. The DLC is not required to complete the game, but is geared towards players seeking a deeper game experience.
The DLC episodes can be accessed any time after completing Chapter 4, by venturing to a lone island to the far south of Ylisse, where the mysterious Outrealm Gate is located. Beyond this gate lies Anna–the gate’s keeper and the player’s connection to other-worldly adventures. The available commands in the Outrealm Gate are: Play a Map, Purchase Maps and Exit.
Each episode in the first series typically pits your trained units against the Einherjar–summoned characters from Fire Emblem history (in other words, legacy characters). Upon completion of an episode, you will usually obtain a legacy character with new artwork drawn by a guest artist and sometimes a DLC-exclusive item too.
In case you’re curious, the legacy characters you fight in the DLC episodes can all be obtained via SpotPass (although often with a different class and stats).
For commonly asked questions about DLC, please check the F.A.Q page!

Your strongest soldiers and your ultimate stratagem–this map will require both. | |
