The player must choose which side to align with, which affects the course of the story and the units that are available to them.įire Emblem Fates: Special Edition includes all three story paths, allowing the player to experience the entire story and all the available units. The story of Fire Emblem Fates follows the player character, known as Corrin, as they are torn between two warring nations: Hoshido, the home of their birth, and Nohr, the kingdom that raised them. The game features permadeath, meaning that if a unit falls in battle, they will not return for the rest of the game. The game is a tactical role-playing game in which the player controls a group of characters, known as units, and navigates them through grid-based battles against enemy units.
It is a compilation of the two separate versions of the game, Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright and Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest, as well as a third storyline, Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation, which was released later as downloadable content (DLC).
Fire Emblem Fates: Special Edition is a video game developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS handheld gaming console.
