3DS Critic Reviews

Fire Emblem: Revelation is an excellent final act to the Fates storyline. Its balance of difficulty and accessibility means that both veteran players and newcomers can enjoy it without feeling bored or overwhelmed, and its story starts slowly, but quickly becomes a worthy finale to this tactical trilogy.

Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation is a fantastic way for concluding the incredible war story that enveloped the Hoshido and Nohr Family. Albeit it can be played without the need to have completed neither the Birthright nor Conquest versions, it is highly recommended - save this one for the last so you can enjoy at its fullest all of the contents and augments that are exposed here. Easily a great way to conclude with this memorable tale.

Of all three Fire Emblem Fates titles, Revelation is the most rewarding. It marries the best parts of sister titles Birthright and Conquest, offering varying maps with complex and often interactive terrain, as well as ample opportunities to grind for experience and build relationships between members of its warrings kingdoms.

It's a great middle-ground overall, really. Players can still grind like they can in Birthright (a mechanic that's eliminated from Conquest), but the difficulty is more in tune with the other release.

Fire Emblem Fates Revelation is exactly what DLC is supposed to be like. It adds a whole new perspective on the story of Fire Emblem Fates and feels essential to understand the full plot. Definitely a must-have if you want to know all the ins and outs.

Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation offers more of the same fantastic gameplay found in Birthright and Conquest. Fans of the series will be well served by the extra campaign, and for anyone that’s already played through at least one of the other storylines, it’s an essential addendum to one of the 3DS’ finest titles.

A wonderful culmination of the truly epic three-part story that is the entirety of this latest Fire Emblem adventure. [Issue #21 – May/June 2016, p.22]

FEF: Revelation is an outstanding game you don't want to miss. Incredible gameplay and brilliant level design make it a must-have for Fire Emblem fans.

The perfect mix of Conquest and Birthright. A must have for the Fire Emblem Fates fans.

This is more than a simple DLC. This is the real conclusion for the Fire Emblem Fates trilogy and combines the best from the other two games.
