Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave expansion pass costs $34.99 and gets three DLC waves

The expansion will roll out in three waves: the first is available now, the second arrives during the 2026 holiday season, and the third is planned for 2027.
The second wave includes outfits and three new allies: Aurora, Smyrnos, and Jurah; the final wave is said to add new story content, allies, classes, and extra content.

What happened

Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have released an expansion pass for Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave. The pass is available via the Nintendo eShop and costs $34.99 / £29.99, bundling multiple DLC drops into one purchase rather than selling each wave separately.

The expansion is split into three parts. The first wave is available immediately for pass owners and, according to the source, adds a selection of weapons. The second wave is scheduled for the 2026 holiday season and brings additional outfits for the cast, plus three new allies: Aurora, Smyrnos, and Jurah.

The final wave is due in 2027. According to the source, this is the biggest part of the pass, with new story content, new allies, classes, and extra content. No exact date has been announced for that last wave yet.

The sources tie the expansion to the existing release of Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, but do not provide new sales figures or further details on the full contents of the later waves. What is clear is that the rollout has already begun with the first DLC wave.
