Nintendo Preview Shows Fire Emblem Nun Firing Gun in 36-Year-Old Series

Summary
Nintendo’s latest Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave preview showed a nun-like character leaping into battle and firing what appears to be a gun.
The footage described the weapon as “gauntlets that look like firearms,” extending a surprise reveal that firearms are entering the strategy series for the first time in 36 years.
That addition stands out in a game otherwise framed around classic Fire Emblem elements—multiple protagonists, political intrigue, swords, magic and mounted combat.
Fortune’s Weave was detailed in a 20-minute Nintendo Direct earlier Tuesday and is scheduled to launch on September 17 for Switch 2.
