In the lead-up to the release of Fire Emblem: Three Houses on the Switch, Nintendo has been sharing a series of short videos, introducing players to each of the houses in the game.
Last week we got a look at the Blue Lion House and this week we're taking a look at the Golden Deer House - where all students hail from the Leicester Alliance, which lies in the east and is represented at Garreg Mach Monastery. Led by Claude von Regan, this "rogue nation" answers to no king and is an expert when it comes to archery.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses will be released on the Nintendo Switch on 26th July. You can also view the Black Eagles House video and the Blue Lion House video.
Which house will you be siding with? Tell us down in the comments.

Looking fine! This game is hype! Good luck with your favorite houses everyone!
I really hope there's a flaw into favoring the Golden Deer. Because it's giving off a "100% THE GOOD GUYS+BEST GOOD ENDING" type of feeling.
@BoyfriendOfDeath You say that like it's a bad thing...
Best house, change my mind!
@MarioFan02 It's not, but I want some sort of downside into making a decision on which house to favor. Each house should have an equal amount of pros and cons and make it feel that the decision really is yours. Golden Deer feels like they're saying they actually are the defacto good guys, kind of forcing you side with them, because they definitely will not start the war. I just don't want another FE Fates situation.
"Answers to no king" Yea we'll see about that when the Main Character turns out to be a secret prince of the land.
I still have yet to make a decision as to which house I’ll choose. Given I’ll be female Byleth, I’m torn between Blue Lions and Golden Deer. But I do also admire Edelgard as well in Black Eagles.... Ah well, sounds like I’ll be making multiple play-throughs on this title....
Love Claude and the fact they have no kings, also archery, so I'm totally team Golden Deer!
3 Houses, I like the brick one.
Fire Emblem usually has a ground of nomad/kingless/atypical nation. Most likely the group's flaw will be disunity in decision making or factionalism.
@BoyfriendOfDeath Unpopular comment, but I know what you mean. They just look like the faction the devs want you to like. Which, of course, I do. Who can resist a rag-tag band of archers and rogues?
Eagles or Deer? Eagles or Deer? I can't decide. This will need multiple playthroughs, I think.
Well, I think I like him best personally. I love the archery focus, and the rogue nation aspect. Either Claude or Eldegard I suppose. Leaning towards Golden Dear.
I've got my doubts about how this game is promoted, getting kiddish Harry Potter vibes. But 'I'm sure the actual game will deliver
@nintendolie What are you talking about? The straw house is the best. Just look at the weatherproof structuring of the foundation.
"BEWARE THE ALLIANCE AND LEICESTER!!!"
Nintendolife, please cover any regional differences for this game, if there are gonna be any. Like voice language options and stuff.
Blue Lions are a bit too "goody-two-shoes" for my taste. I was set on Eagles, but the Deer are pretty tempting. I do love me some archin'
Also, didn't think of it till now, but hope they don't allow you to have direct romantic relationships like they did in Awakening. Or at least not with your students. It felt kinda weird back when FFVIII did it, and it'll still feel weird today.
@Desrever Romantic relationships have been confirmed, but only after the game's 5 year timeskip. If that's still kind of weird to you, I'm sure the other teachers at the academy will be romantic options, or you could ignore relationships in the game all together!
@Conductor Yeah, the timeskip might make things less cringy. Age ain't nothin but a number, but it's the creepy power dynamic that gets me.
But you do you, Byleth. You do you.
I still haven't decided. I know I won't be a Blue Lion but I'm still torn between the Black Eagles and Golden Deer. Probably leaning slightly towards the Golden Deer but like 51-49. I hope I get a little time with the characters before I have to declare and we go into the time jump.
@patbacknitro18
Sounds swiss enough for me. My favourite so far..
@JasmineDragon UGH I’m stuck between eagles and deers badly too. I’m really interested in the characters from both of the houses! Either way I’m sure all three of them will be enjoyable playing
@BoyfriendOfDeath The flaw is that the leader is the only one of the characters introduced in that video who sounds interesting. I really don't care to train a lazy duchess, a sloppy meathead, or a stingy tomboy. If those were the ones picked to actually be featured in the video, then the rest of the house can't be much better.
@PlusFan It worked for "RWBY," and just like that show it promises to get a lot darker once we get past the school setting.
@BoyfriendOfDeath
It's a fair trade off since everyone in the house besides its leader is ugly af
