How to read this guide

Official: Nintendo product pages and official announcements.

Reporting: attributed press coverage; not automatically primary confirmation.

Observation: a description of visible imagery, not proof of identity or lore.

Unconfirmed: unknown mechanics, theories and community claims remain qualified.

What changed recently

Nintendo’s August 4 Direct recap identifies Solel as the current ruler of the Dagdan Empire and the person who will grant the winner one wish. The exact wish-granting mechanism and its limits remain undisclosed. Source 12 ↗

Nintendo confirms the Shopping Arcade for buying and enhancing weapons, Temple Row for volunteering and Blessings, deadline-based quests, gifts and shared meals for recruitment, and inns for rest, experience, materials and character conversations. The UK page says Arena Plaza training is available once per week. This does not establish a complete calendar or action-point system.

Nintendo’s Direct recap lists swords, gauntlets, spears, axes, bows and magic. Collected materials can be used to enhance weapons at the Shopping Arcade; the full recipes, costs and durability-repair rules are not documented.

Nintendo’s three-part Ask the Developer series was published on September 15, 2026 (not the earlier date in the source snapshot).

Selected Fortune’s Weave tracks are available through Nintendo Music for Nintendo Switch Online members. Nintendo’s August 28 update lists them as available, and the official “[Special Release] Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave” playlist is publicly listed. This confirms a selection, not the complete soundtrack or every regional catalogue. Nintendo Music playlist, checked October 8, 2026 ↗ Nintendo August update, checked October 8, 2026 ↗

Nintendo’s Direct recap says time passes every time the player moves on the world map. Towns offer local wares and information, and Skirmish battles grant experience. Nintendo’s September 15 interview describes Cai catching and caring for rideable animals and growing crops to trade; Dietrich acquiring and strengthening Combat Arts by defeating enemies; Theodora recruiting settlement soldiers for battalions; and Leda performing in taverns for rewards or information about secret locations. Exact costs, thresholds and reward tables remain unconfirmed here. Nintendo, checked October 8, 2026 ↗

Nintendo’s Direct recap adds that gauntlets aid evasion, axes trade accuracy for attack power, bows strike at range, and magic can be effective against armored foes or heal and support allies. It also shows unique weapons such as lightning swords and firearm-like gauntlets.

Nintendo’s US product records list the standard digital game at $69.99, the standard physical game at $79.99 and the Dagdan Collection at $119.99. Nintendo, checked October 8, 2026 ↗ The product page also identifies the game as single-system, one-player software and lists an ESRB rating of Fantasy Violence, Mild Language, Suggestive Themes and Use of Alcohol.

Nintendo also announced a Fortune’s Weave theme for the Nintendo Today! app. The Music selection above does not establish that app’s current regional catalogue.

Nintendo’s current US listing estimates 27.5 GB. We keep the estimate tied to the storefront rather than treating it as a universal installed size.

Spoilers and scope

This wiki covers the publicly disclosed premise, including the 1449 tournament and 1454 crisis. No endings, hidden routes or undisclosed betrayals are invented. Uploaded images are user-provided reference imagery, not independent factual sources.

Full source list

The bibliography below preserves the earlier source snapshot’s references. Entries with a dated “Checked” label were fetched on that date; undated entries retain their historical attribution. A Nintendo hostname identifies an official publisher source; a check alone does not make press or community material official.

Nintendo’s official world-map imagery also labels Arago and Brezarant as kingdoms; their roles remain unknown. A previously listed Fire Emblem Wiki URL was removed from the public ledger because it returned 404 and no corrected article URL was established. This ledger is useful, but a source check does not replace hands-on verification of every game detail.

Community watchlist

Reddit and forum threads are useful for discovering player questions, spelling variants, route leads and missing guide topics. They are not primary evidence. Current monitoring leads include the r/fireemblem question thread, a Cai-route discussion, a recruitment checklist, the faction chart, the Serenes Forest Fortune’s Weave forum and the Fire Emblem Universe megathread. Use them to prioritize capture work, never to silently promote an unconfirmed threshold or ending. Source 66 ↗ Source 67 ↗ Source 68 ↗ Source 69 ↗ Source 71 ↗ Source 72 ↗

Platform and Steam check

The official product pages list the game for Nintendo Switch 2. A Steam edition or a meaningful Steam review/comment corpus was not found in the release-day search, so no Steam sentiment is represented as if it were player evidence. If a PC release appears later, add it as a new platform record and re-check the buying, performance and community sections. Source 1 ↗ Source 2 ↗

September 19 second evidence pass

Recruitment, class, item, Paralogue and dungeon pages now contain attributed lookup records. Their coverage statements distinguish a complete source index from a complete in-game database. Disagreements involving Loretta, Tobias, Yang Jie, War Monk and Caladrius remain visible. The Polygon class guide was accessible through a Canadian Reviews reproduction; that reproduction is not independent confirmation. Community spreadsheets are used for reader needs, not as separate proof of copied recruitment data.
