Fire Emblem: Three Houses Cindered Shadows DLC Gets New Gameplay Details

Today Nintendo revealed some new gameplay details of the upcoming DLC for Fire Emblem: Three Houses titled Cindered Shadows.

The information was provided via Twitter (source: 1, 2) and ties-in with the fact that the DLC will have its own separate save and progression.

Unlike the main part of the game, we won’t have qualification exams to progress character skills for the classes. You will be able to change class among a set of fixed ones for each character. There will also be new ones in the DLC, so fans can look forward to that.

Each skill’s level is also fixed, so you’ll have to make do with the skills and tactics that ech character has from the start.

Maps have a lot of special features, and the difficulty is a bit higher than the main story. It’s important to plan accordingly depending on the situation.

Below you can see a couple of screenshots that came with the tweets.

The Cindered Shadows DLC will be released on February 12. It’ll also be accompanied by a free update. If you’d like to see more, you can enjoy the original announcement, a look at the leader of the Ashen Wolves, Yuri, another member, Constance, the third, Balthus, and the fourth, Hapi.
