Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes Should Have a Demo Like Age of Calamity
Nintendo was pretty silent about Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes after the game's announcement trailer kicked off its February 2022 Direct. A few screenshots of the new Fire Emblem Warriors game have appeared online, but the actual scope of the Dynasty Warriors-styled hack-and-slash spin-off has been left to peoples' imaginations. That is, until a second trailer dropped on April 12, introducing its new lead character Shez and offering some insights into how it will alter the world established by 2019's Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
Broad strokes from the new trailer show Three Houses' player-insert character Byleth will remain an antagonistic mercenary named the Ashen Demon — a moniker they slowly moved away from in the original strategy RPG after becoming an instructor at the Officers Academy. Shez, a more charismatic character who can be male or female, will take the reins and support either the Adrestian Empire, Holy Kingdom of Faerghus, or Leicester Alliance. This fresh take on Three Houses' narrative is similar to Koei Tecmo and Omega Force reworking Breath of the Wild's backstory in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, and Three Hopes would benefit from a similar demo to test the waters.

Instead, Age of Calamity was announced via Twitter on September 8, 2020 — following the likes of Paper Mario: The Origami King on May 14 andPikmin 3 Deluxe on August 5.
