A respectable 81 average that never found its audience. More story than an RPG — fantasy, drama first, and the RPG parts serve the narrative. Come for the campaign, stay because your friends won't let you leave the lobby.

About this game

Fire Emblem Fates is split into three story paths. Revelation is the third story of the Fire Emblem Fates games and is available as DLC in either of the base games. You need to be have completed Chapter 6 in the either game to access the DLC's path. Revelations has the scouting missions that are available for experience and money like in Birthright but the mission objectives are more complicated like Conquest. In Revelations, the player chooses to not align with either kingdom and it reveals extra information about the Birthright and Conquest storylines.

This chapter of Fire Emblem Fates follows Corrin, a young royal torn between two warring kingdoms: the peaceful land of Hoshido, where they were born, and the shadowy kingdom of Nohr, where they were raised after being taken as a child. Gifted with the power to transform into a dragon and entrusted with a legendary blade, Corrin stands at the center of a devastating war between the two nations. In this path, Corrin refuses to take up arms for either side, choosing instead to seek a way to end the bloodshed without betraying one family for the other. Branded a traitor by both kingdoms and cast out, Corrin sets off alongside the mysterious songstress Azura to uncover the hidden truth behind the conflict, suspecting that a far darker force has been secretly manipulating Hoshido and Nohr into destroying one another.
