‘Fire Emblem Fates’ Map Pack 2 DLC To Tell Ongoing Story, Coming May 5

The latest slate of DLC maps for Fire Emblem Fates are coming to your 3DS really soon. Nintendo has announced that Map Pack 2 will be coming to Fire Emblem Fates starting May 5 and will actually tell an ongoing story.

While Map Pack 1 had the return of Anna from Fire Emblem Awakening , along with other maps that gave valuable items, Map Pack 2 will tell a story and give players access to some new characters.

Here’s the official description of what awaits players who go through the six-part story:

“Across dimensions, other versions of the Hoshidan and Nohrian children are under attack. Born and raised in the Deeprealms, these fledgling warriors must now rise up to save themselves and their parents as they unravel the mystery of their adversaries.”

And if you have been playing Fire Emblem Fates for awhile and leveling up your units, none of that will matter in Map Pack 2 as all of your past units will not be used. Instead, they are replaced with brand new characters to make these maps extra tough.

Past Fire Emblem Fates DLC maps are available in one pack or can be bought individually but with the nature of this set of maps, players will be better off getting the entire pack. The first map will be available May 5 with every new map being sold individually a week after the last through June 9.

Here’s the release schedule and price for each map included in Map Pack 2 in Fire Emblem Fates.

• May 5-June 9 – Map Pack 2 ($7.99)

• May 5 – I: In Endless Dreams (49 cents)

• May 12 – II: Realms Collide ($1.99)

• May 19 – III: The Changing Tide ($1.99)

• May 26 – IV: Light’s Sacrifice ($1.99)

• June 2 – V: Endless Dawn ($1.99)

• June 9 – End: Lost in the Waves ($1.99)

As a bonus, Another Gift from Anna, which provides players with the Boots and Paragon items, is available to download for free on May 5 for players who already own the Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright or Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest games.
