Fire Emblem Three Houses Teaser Shows Both Forms of Byleth

As we slowly tick down to the summer release date, I’ll pounce on any Three Houses news I can get, and a brief new Fire Emblem Three Houses teaser showing both the male and female versions of protagonist Byleth is certainly much appreciated! We got a bonus look at the Three Houses form of Anna from the official Twitter’s new profile picture too!

 

 

Here’s a better look at both versions of the protagonist and that lovely Anna:

It may not be much, but it’s nice to finally see female Byleth in action. There are also some more details about Fire Emblem Three Houses from the latest issue of Famitsu, and Twitter user @bk2128 has very generously provided some translations. These go into a little more detail about the main characters and some key gameplay features.

A mysterious girl who looks young in appearance but speaks in an old manner. She saves the protagonist one fateful night. She doesn’t usually show up, instead communicating with the protagonist through telepathy, meaning no one else has noticed her. She has no memory of her true self.

An eloquent young man with good manners. He embodies chivalry but also holds a darkness. The Holy Kingdom of Faerghus is known for its knights, which might be why many of its students are good at using spears.

A friendly young man with a smile that suits him well. Although he doesn’t seem to like thinking about things too deeply, he has sharp insight. Compared to the other classes, the Golden Deer has the most students who are commoners rather than nobles. Many of them are good at using bows.

 

Here’s what we know about gameplay so far:

 

Fire Emblem Three Houses has a time rewind system, which is made possible by Sothis’s ability to turn back time. It’s a system similar to Mila’s Turnwheel in Shadows of Valentia where you can rewind by movement but usage is limited.

 

Another similarity to Shadows of Valentia are terrain effects. As well as determining movement costs and evasion rates, some spots have gimmicks such as restoring HP or warping a character to another spot.

 

When the game is started, there will be choices for Normal or Hard difficulty and Classic or Casual styles of play.

 

Class Change uses a Qualification Exam system. Characters must spend exam passes and the chance of success improves with correct skill ranks. Once the class has been unlocked, the character can change back freely at any time and their level won’t go back down to Level 1 either.

 

Each character has good and bad ranks for the ranked skills, which are as follows: Sword Skill, Spear Skill, Axe Skill, Bow Skill, Physics (Black and Dark Magic), Faith (White Magic), Flying, Heavy Armour, Horseriding.

 

Characters will start in either the Commoner or Noble class, depending on their origins, but both starting classes are the same in terms of stats, having some magic capability but no other highlights. The first class upgrades are after reaching Level 5, and they are Myrmidon (sword), Soldier (spear), Warrior (axe and bow), Monk (magic).
