Fire Emblem Warriors Update Containing New Costumes And More November 16
Nintendo announced today that Fire Emblem Warriors, the Warriors game bringing together heroes from several recent Fire Emblem games, will be receiving a patch that contains a new History mode map, new costumes for the original characters, a new weapon attribute, and some quality of life improvements.
The new History mode map allows Rowan and Lianna, the two main characters that drive the story of Fire Emblem Warriors, to get in arena fights with the other characters from the Fire Emblem proper. Rowan and Lianna are also getting new Lord costumes made of gold.
A new weapon attribute called Armor Break now inflicts, well, armor break status on characters. It is unknown if this affects every single playable character, but it causes characters affected by it to lose their armor. Additionally, players can now sell off weapons in multiples rather than one at a time.
The update will be released for free on November 16, a few weeks ahead of the game's first DLC pack. You can find our review of Fire Emblem Warriors right here.
Our Take
Hopefully Koei Tecmo and Nintendo keep adding content and the game reaches the content levels of Hyrule Warriors.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
