(Japanese trailer available here.)
The leader of the Ashen Wolves can be summoned from 31st March to 14th February 2023.

Last week, Famitsu covered the launch of Three Houses’s Wave 4 DLC. At the very end, there was an interview with the directors about the DLC (past and present). Thanks to Nintendo Everything, this interview has been translated to English.
Most of the key points were already spoiled ahead of time, so there isn’t much new. Nonetheless, it’s an interesting read. The interview discusses the addition of Maddening Mode, why there wasn’t a “golden route”, as well as the inspiration behind the Ashen Wolves.
Recently, Famitsu posted the online version of the interview, which oddly has parts that are completely absent in the issue itself. You can find translations of those extra parts below.
Topics include the new DLC activities (specifically the sauna and interactions with cats and dogs), the hidden story branch (spoilers if you haven’t completed the game) and the main illustration for Cindered Shadows.
In case you missed it, Version 1.2.0 of Three Houses, which includes the Wave 4 DLC, is now available to download! This is the final planned DLC for the game.
To celebrate the DLC’s release, Nintendo shared a new piece of artwork of the Ashen Wolves students from the Cindered Shadows side story. This is the same artwork used for this week’s Famitsu cover.
Anyway, Cindered Shadows is the main highlight of the DLC, but it’s not the only thing! All players can enjoy the following:
For more details about what 1.2.0 brings to the table, please check the official patch notes.
Now that Cindered Shadows is finally here, we’ve also updated several of our Three Houses pages with character, class and ability data. However, we haven’t had time to add everything just yet. Interestingly, some data has been changed since version 1.1.0.
Please continue if you don’t mind some mild spoilers.
As promised, this week’s issue of Famitsu, which includes a feature on Three Houses’s Cindered Shadows DLC story is now out! There are 12 pages, although the new stuff starts from Page 5 (the first couple of pages explain the main story).
Also, as you might expect, since this is Famitsu’s first proper feature on Cindered Shadows, a lot of the information is repeated. To save time, we’ll only cover the new information. For everything else, please refer to this article.

First things first, here are the personal abilities for the Ashen Wolves students!
Yuri: Righteous Heart – Might +3 during combat, when fighting at 1 Range with no allies adjacent.
Constance: Personality Switch – Strength and Magic +3 when indoors, Defence and Resistance +3 when outdoors.
Balthus: King of Grappling – Strength and Defence +6 when user has 50% or less HP.
Hapi: Monstrous Body – User’s attacks are effective against monsters, but they are more easily targeted by monsters.
Also, here’s a list of the available class certifications for each playable character in Cindered Shadows. For each character, the first class is their initial class.
Just in care you’re wondering, there is a place to hire battalions in Abyss, when playing Cindered Shadows.
Next, Trickster has the Lucky Seven ability from Awakening, except it functions differently here. Each turn, the user’s Strength, Magic, Speed, Defence, Resistance, Hit or Avoid will be increased by 5 for 1 turn.
