Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes Trailer Shows Character Makeovers

screenrant.com:

Nintendo dropped a new trailer for Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, showing off the new looks for the Kingdom of Faerghus warriors. These characters are part of the Blue Lions house from Fire Emblem: Three Houses, led by the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus' Prince Dimitri. Blue Lions is one of the houses that the player can choose to lead and teach as Byleth in Three Houses, but Byleth seems to be taking on a more antagonistic role in Three Hopes.

The Blue Lions house is comprised of eight Faerghus citizens that the player can teach and train in Three Houses: the aforementioned Dimitri, Mercedes, Sylvain, Ashe, Dedue, Annette, Felix, and Ingrid. A major plot point of Three Houses' story involves a five-year time skip, after which all of these characters have grown from students into full-fledged warriors. This means that each of these characters, along with the students from the other two houses, already have two different looks in the game. This is already a topic that fans have loved to talk about since the release of Three Houses, debating on who got the best «post time-skip» look. While the exact time placement of Three Hopes is not confirmed, let alone whether or not it's canonical, it's theorized to take place sometime between the two time zones depicted in the original game.

The new trailer from Nintendo UK's YouTube channel shows off the new outfits and hairdos for each returning Blue Lions character, and fans are divided. Some are thrilled with the new looks, like Twitter user houjitsun, who approves of Ashe's hairstyle. Others, like taiwonton, were less pleased, and even edited some tweaks onto Felix, Ingrid, and Sylvain to improve their bangs
