Available through a Japanese trading card game
Fire Emblem: Awakening‘s success saved it from being thelast in the seriesand Nintendo seems to be trying real hard to capitalize on it. The upcoming 3DS turn-based strategy —Fire Emblem Ifin Japan, where it releases in June — hastwo separate versionsand athird storyline coming as DLC.
The next entry will also feature DLC characters, according to a recentlivestreamcovered bySerenes Forest, tied to the release of aFire Emblemtrading card game set to launch in Japan alongside the 3DS game.
At the onset, “Marth, Prince of Altea,” “Lucina, the Swordsman who claims to be Marth,” and “Pegasus Knight Minerva” will be available as download codes bundled with select packs of cards. It is unlikely the cards will release in the states. Maybe those characters can just be bought individually? All of this complexity does seem like it’s making the 2016 western release ofIfmore challenging.
Also, how was theAwakeningDLC? There seems to have been a lot of it. I was too busyworrying about romanceto bother with it.
