Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is a 2022 hack and slash action role-playing game developed by Omega Force and published by Koei Tecmo in Japan and Nintendo internationally for the Nintendo Switch. Part of the Fire Emblem series created by Intelligent Systems, it is both a spin-off of Fire Emblem: Three Houses (2019) and a successor to Fire Emblem Warriors (2017), similarly acting as a crossover between the mechanics of Fire Emblem and the Warriors franchise owned by Koei Tecmo (which Omega Force is a division of). The game was announced in a Nintendo Direct on February 9, 2022, and was released worldwide on June 24, 2022.

Three Hopes is set in the same universe as Three Houses; although characters and story elements from the original game (including the Cindered Shadows DLC) are heavily featured, it takes place in an alternative timeline and features a new character named Shez as its protagonist. In Three Hopes, Shez, a mercenary whose team was decimated by Byleth in battle, joins the military academy of Garreg Mach Monastery and becomes a student in one of three classes, each including students from one of the three nations of the continent of Fódlan. Like in Three Houses, the game allows players to decide which class to join, leading to different story paths and playable characters.

Three Hopes received generally favorable reviews. Critics deemed it an improvement over its predecessor and praised its implementation of Warriors gameplay, but criticized its pacing and technical performance. The game shipped over one million copies worldwide by August 2022.
