Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright
Two kingdoms are on the brink of war. Whose side will you choose? Torn
between two families, you're an heir of Hoshido, raised by Nohrian
royals. If you choose the path of Birthright, you'll battle the
corrupted king of Nohr beside a family of strangers.
You may also choose the path of Conquest, where you must fight to change
your misguided kingdom from within. Learn about Fire
Emblem Fates: Conquest.
Command warriors with expert precision and forge deep relationships to
master this turn-based strategy game. For the first time ever, your
customized avatar is the main hero. An army of knights, mages, archers
and more are at your command in the most tactical battles in series

consider for every foe you face. Partner allies on the battlefield so
they can support each other in combat. Building relationships is key—the
closer your allies become, the better they'll fight together. Their
future is at your command, but first you must make the most important
decision in the history of Fire Emblem.

gameplay experience with different sets of characters to battle against

in-game, adding an alternate take to the events that transpired between
the kingdoms of Nohr and Hoshido.
