It's finally here – the previously rumored exciting fall Nintendo Direct has arrived and provided us with plenty of massive news today, including a first look at Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave.
Two years have passed since Nintendo dropped Engage, its last entry in the beloved tactical RPG series, and six since Three Houses launched in 2019 – but it seems fans won't have to wait much longer to get their hands on the next game. Today's Direct showcase unveiled Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, a brand-new title coming to the Switch 2 sometime in 2026. It isn't just any Fire Emblem, though.
Judging by the teaser at the end of the upcoming entry's new trailer, Fortune's Weave might actually stand as a direct sequel to Three Houses. For a few brief seconds, an older Sothis appears upon a throne. She asks before rising up, "The years were long, weren't they? Have you forgotten me so soon?" There's no telling for certain whether this marks the next game as a follow-up until it's explicitly said, of course, but...
Although Nintendo has yet to provide a more specific release date, 2026 isn't exactly all that far away anymore – there are less than four months to go now before the turn of the year. Here's hoping Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave arrives sooner rather than later, come the following year, which is already packed to the brim with thrilling new games to wishlist on both the Nintendo Switch 2 and beyond.
Are you a fan of Nintendo yourself? Here are some of the most exciting upcoming Switch 2 games to look forward to.
