Nintendo reveals new Fire Emblem game coming to Switch 2

A new Fire Emblem game has been revealed at today's Nintendo Direct.

Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave, as it's known, will be released in 2026.

It's the latest in the tactical RPG series, check out a gameplay trailer below.

Judging by the reveal, it'll feature plenty of cinematic anime scenes, as well as the tile-based battles the series is known for. Story-wise, it appears to revolve around some form of Colosseum setup.

Fire Emblem Three Houses was a huge success for Nintendo on Switch that brought the series to new heights of popularity. It was followed by Fire Emblem Engage that was less well-received.

Let's hope Fortune's Weave is a significant step on for the series.
