Fortune's Weave is getting an infamous gacha gun from one of the series mobile games, and I have questions
Key Highlights
- Collab weapons from Fire Emblem Heroes added to Fortune's Weave.
- Gacha system allows summoning of various Fire Emblem characters.
- Gun-like weapons raise questions about their use in the game.
Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, the new strategy RPG released for the Nintendo Switch 2 system, has received its first day-one update. The update adds a number of collab weapons from the series' two mobile games – Kurt's Royal Sword from the Among Us-esque spin-off with evil furries.
Fire Emblem Shadows, and a trio from the 2017 gacha game Fire Emblem Heroes.
Progress through the story enough, and you can get your hands on Heroes protagonist Alfonse's Chosen Sword, Fjorm's Chosen Lance, and most importantly, the Summoner's Breidablik. The gacha system in Fire Emblem Heroes is simple – your self-insert character.
The Summoner, has a divine gun they can shoot to summon various Fire Emblem characters out of their individual worlds and timelines and into the mobile game's land of Askr.
The addition of gacha-like weapons in Fortune's Weave is already amusing. However, it also raises an interesting question – could Leda, Dietrich, Cai, Theodora and the gang use these guns to bring in duplicate 3-star Robin, Wrys, and Bartres to bolster their teams? Even better… could they fire out people as projectiles?

Unfortunately, in the reality of the game itself, the answer is no – there are no actual gacha or human-projectile situations in Fortune's Weave. But in the lore, I wanna believe they could use it like this if they wanted.
The update is available now for Nintendo Switch 2 users.
Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave Metacritic score matches Three Houses, but still isn't the peak of Nintendo's strategy RPG series.

Fire Emblem Heroes was first released in 2017.
