Merchandise: Emperor Edelgard 1/7 Scale Figure from Three Houses!

Note: This is a backdated article.

Intelligent Systems has delivered a Christmas present for Edelgard/Three Houses fans–the announcement of a new 1/7 scale figure of Edelgard in her Emperor attire.

Pre-orders are available until 26th February 2025, from places like Good Smile Company (US). The expected release date is January 2026.

Edelgard’s figure is the latest in a long-running line-up that features protagonists and important characters from across the series. Prior to Edelgard, King Dimitri was the latest figure to be announced. Presumably Claude will swoop in eventually.

An official website (Japanese) has been created, which shares some general info, plus a celebratory illustration from Chinatsu Kurahana, the illustrator for Three Houses.

Fire Emblem Engage: Expansion Pack Announced & Tour of the Somniel Base!

I thought this might happen; I need a rest, Nintendo!

Anyway, at The Game Awards, Nintendo dropped a trailer for the Fire Emblem Engage Expansion Pass.

Wave 1 will release alongside the game on 20th January 2023, containing:

  • Emblem character – Edelgard, Dimitri & Claude
  • Emblem character – Tiki
  • In-game support items, accessories and Silver Card

Three additional waves will be released throughout 2023.

The trailer also confirms a theory that Eirika and Ephraim will be a shared Emblem.

Meanwhile, Nintendo Japan shared a more in-depth look at Wave 1, plus the future roadmap.

Wave 2

  • New Emblem(s)
  • New support items and accessories

Wave 3

  • New Emblem(s)

Wave 4

  • New story (with new characers, maps and story separate from the main game)
  • New classes

A new story isn’t unexpected, since we had Cindered Shadows for Three Houses. The expansion pass featuring Gradlon’s insignia makes me curious if it’ll explore the Fell Dragon’s sunken realm in more detail…

Also, Nintendo Japan shared a video tour of the Somniel base:

I’ll probably be analysing this video and the rest throughout the weekend, in-between work and sleep.

Oh, there’s more! Nintendo Japan posted a new Topics article covering the Expansion Pass and Somniel, but also sharing info for the 6 remaining Emblems!

Wait, it doesn’t stop there. The official site also updated, with profiles for all the retainers! Unbelievably, my guess for Kagetsu being Ivy’s retainer seems to be correct.

OK, seems like sleep might be off the menu for a while.

Heroes: Fódlan & Tellius Faves Enjoy a Summer Vacation!

In Fire Emblem Heroes, the summer season is upon us! This time, the summer banner didn’t leak, but it seems something else leaked instead…

Anyway, “Summer Vacation” runs from 17th July 2022 (UTC) and features (presumably) the first of two waves of Summer-themed Heroes.

Note: You can check out the Japanese version of this trailer here.

The featured Heroes are all royalty from Radiant Dawn and Three Houses: Dimitri, Micaiah, Claude and Harmonic Edelgard and Altina.

In addition, Elincia: Seaside Queen will be a Tempest Trials reward. She’ll be a Blue Bow Flier. Other rewards include the Atk/Def Catch 1 and Inf. Hexblade 1 Sacred Seals.

Please continue for a breakdown of the Heroes from the trailer!
