Five DLC packs planned
BeforeFire Emblem Echoesarrives in the west (it came out in Japan a few weeks ago), Nintendo wants you to know that it’s getting a season pass.
It’s $45 (!), and will contain “22 pieces of content” across five DLC packs throughout the year. These include new characters, maps, dungeons, challenges, classes, and even a prologue that doubles as an extra story mission. You can check out the full details below.
If you haven’t been keeping track, this season pass is for a remake of the secondFire Emblemgame, and is on top of the twopreviously confirmed amiibo figuresthat also unlock exclusive content. While I’m sure the core game will be worth the price of entry on its own based on how packed everyFire Emblemis at launch, this DLC strategy isbonkers.
To see Nintendo go from no DLC while everyone else was doing it toputting out add-ons that cost more than the base gameis wild. For reference,Fire Emblem Fateshad 17 DLC maps that could be purchased across two passes for $26.
