Plot
The game takes place on the continent of Fódlan. The landmass is divided into three rival nations who are now at peace: the Adrestian Empire to the south and west, the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus to the north, and the Leicester Alliance to the east. At the center of the continent is the Garegg Mach monastery, home of the Church of Seiros and its Officer's Academy. The academy comprises three houses, each populated with students from their respective nations: The Black Eagles, Blue Lions or Golden Deer.
The player assumes the role of Byleth, and may choose their name and gender. Once part of a mercenary group led by their father Jeralt, Byleth is offered a position to teach at the academy after an unexpected incident. Byleth begins to see Sothis, a mysterious girl only they can see.
Development
Nintendo first announced that a Fire Emblem game was in development for the Switch in an episode of Nintendo Direct they released in January 2017. At that time, an expected release date of 2018 was given for the then-unnamed game.[1] They did not release any further information about the game until a presentation at E3 2018 in June 2018. By this point, the stated release had slipped back into 2019, but the game's name was announced and video footage shown.[2] On February 2019, the game was showcased in another Nintendo Direct displaying new game and story details including the game's release date of July 26, 2019 as well as the confirmation that game is to be co-developed by Koei Tecmo. [3]
Reception
Pre-release
Polygon reported that Three Houses "looked incredible" and noted that it looked more faithful to the series' animated aesthetic when compared to past titles.[4] Both Eurogamer and The Verge compared the academy setting to Harry Potter's Hogwarts school of magic.[5][6]
