The gameplay, which revolves around tactical movement of units across a grid-based battlefield, shares many mechanics with previous Fire Emblem games, although some elements are unique to each scenario. In Revelation, the Avatar rallies both sides against the true mastermind behind the war. The overarching story follows the protagonist, a customizable Avatar created by the player, as they are unwillingly drawn into a war between the Kingdoms of Hoshido (their birthplace) and Nohr (their adopted home), and must choose which side to support. Fates was released in three versions, each following a different storyline centered on the same characters: Birthright and Conquest as physical releases, and Revelation as downloadable content. It is the fourteenth game in the Fire Emblem series, and the second to be developed for Nintendo 3DS after Fire Emblem Awakening. However I encounter that when I run what I have found to be the only good emulator for 3ds, citra, it lags out sometimes dropping to like 7fps from 60. The tablet has one of the best performance outputs with a snap 865+ and 6gb of ram. It was released in June 2015 in Japan, then released internationally in 2016. Hey, Ive been wanting to play some 3ds games on my tab s7. Fire Emblem Fates is a tactical role-playing video game for the Nintendo 3DS handheld video game console, developed by Intelligent Systems and Nintendo SPD and published by Nintendo.
