Fire Emblem Engage Wave 3 DLC Now Available on Nintendo Switch: Expansion Pass Details and Updates

Nintendo has launched the much-anticipated Wave 3 DLC for Fire Emblem Engage, delivering new content and game improvements for players on the Nintendo Switch.

Developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo, Fire Emblem Engage stands as a flagship tactical RPG for the platform, and this latest update—which corresponds to Version 1.3.0—demonstrates ongoing support and exciting new additions for the dedicated fanbase. Released on March 7, 2023, Fire Emblem Engage Version 1.3.0 introduces players to Wave 3 of the Expansion Pass.

Notably, this DLC wave features the Emblem characters Chrom and Robin under the combined title "Emblem of Bonds," alongside Veronica from Fire Emblem Heroes as "Emblem of Heroes." These legendary faces return to lend their strengths to your in-game army, further expanding strategic possibilities within the ever-growing cast of Emblems available to players. Beyond new characters, Nintendo has included several enhancements and fixes intended to refine the overall gameplay experience.

According to the official release notes posted on Nintendo’s support page, the update now permits players, starting from Chapter 7, to exchange items at the ancient well in the Somniel base.

This can be accessed by speaking with the proprietor of the armory in-game, giving players expanded options for resource management.

Additionally, players now have the opportunity to use the "Inherit Skills" feature within the Arena, allowing for greater depth and flexibility when customizing units. Routine bug fixes have also been implemented, aiming to polish the experience and ensure a smoother, more enjoyable play session for all users.

Nintendo emphasizes that these adjustments are designed to make the adventure as pleasant as possible, reflecting the company’s commitment to quality assurance on the Nintendo Switch platform. To access the Wave 3 content and all additional updates, players must purchase the Fire Emblem Engage Expansion Pass, available for $29.99 USD (or regional equivalent) via the Nintendo eShop.

This cumulative expansion includes four planned waves of downloadable content, each delivering new characters, gameplay features, and, in the case of the upcoming Wave 4, an entirely new story scenario.

The fourth and final wave is set for release later this year, promising even more content and expanded narrative avenues for dedicated fans. With Fire Emblem Engage continuing to receive substantial post-launch support, Nintendo continues to reinforce its position as a leader in delivering high-quality, content-rich experiences on the Nintendo Switch.

Players eager to enhance their tactical adventures should ensure their game is updated and the Expansion Pass acquired from the eShop for immediate access to Wave 3’s new features.
