In total, the Fire Emblem Engage Expansion Pass will feature four waves of content. As of this writing, no release date is known for the final wave, other than the fact that it will release before the end of 2023. With three down, it's possible it could drop soon, but Wave 4 seems to be pretty substantial. Players can look forward to a new story scenario, new locations, new maps, new characters, and new class types. For those that haven't purchased the Expansion Pass just yet, it can be purchased from the Nintendo Switch eShop for $29.99.

Fire Emblem Engage released in January, and was met with mostly positive reviews. While not as well-received as Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Engage still received a 3.5 out of 5 rating from ComicBook.com's official review. The Fire Emblem franchise has steadily grown into one of Nintendo's most popular, despite the fact that the series remained exclusive to Japan for its first 13 years of existence. That changed in 2003, and clearly the move was a smart one on Nintendo's part!
