Smash Bros. Ultimate isn't the only game getting some major updates this week. Nintendo's and Intelligence System's more recent release, Fire Emblem: Three Houses has just received its third wave of downloadable content.
Provided you've purchased the Expansion Pass, you'll now have access additional quests, more units, new types of attire for students, and a new sauna activity. This includes the ability to recruit Anna on a special quest and interact with animals in the game.
This latest update follows on from the first and second updates, which added new outfits for Byleth, new attire for students, new valuable items and new challenges. The fourth wave is expected to be released by 30th April, next year and will include new story content, additional playable characters, locations and more.
Have you tried out this new wave of content yet? Comment below.

Essentially this DLC seems to be taking the Xenoblade 2 route of giving us some fun extras while we wait for the main course of story DLC.
On another note I'm kind of glad they didn't go the "excessive fanservice" route with the sauna feature, as I don't think that would really fit the overall tone of the game. That was a problem I had with the FE Fates fanservice.
Now I am one step closer to having a Maid Army attack the enemy.
Man. Using a sauna fully clothed. That's a whole other level of hardcore if they pick the "More Steam" option.
You can pet the dog!
I’ve been playing this darn game for so long and I still haven’t bought the DLC for this. I might as well go ahead and get it.
I'm loving this! This was already my favorite RPG of all time before these extras, and now it's just more great goodies on top! Keep it up Intelligent/KT/Nintendo!
I didn't need more reasons to play this.
But I don't mind!
RIP my backlog.
Finished it twice now, allthough I'm tempted I'll wait a little while longer for playing it a third time.
I'm not sure if it is the angle, but those boys have some really big feet in that one picture.
@Klunk23 I agree. I'm all for fanservice games. And I enjoy games like Senran Kagura, but in Fire emblem, I find it annoying. With the sole exception of the Dark mage outfits like Tharja, where I find it fitting.
I’m 75 hours into my first play through, does anyone know if the dlc gets added into your current play through or if it’s only available in a new one?
Not interested in paying the £22 for the DLC hope it goes on offer at some point....half price maybe?
Hyped! Anna is a unit now!
Also OMG YOU CAN NOW PET THE DOG
(I have 2 Chessie-Labrador mix dogs so u can see why I'm hyped)
@CarterDucote I mean, it's a hard game to play back to back. I'm using one save and I'm on chapter 5 of my second route at 80 hours in. You kinda need a few months break to stay sane
Oh great. Love this game on Switch - great bang for the buck and perfect for on the GO play.
Season pass was an easy decision.
So, what does the sauna do?
Can you sweat it out with Anna?
I got super lucky w a Walmart deal - they labeled the game+expansion as $25 so I purchased even tho I already had the game. Thought I’d sell my physical copy. Because of the mistake they only provided the expansion code and refunded the money. So I made out like a bandit!
More on topic, I went thru one house, and am thinking I’ll wait until the story elements are all added in April for my 2nd playthrough. Then everything will be available. Not sure how the additions will work with a completed game:/
"Don't got enough steam for that!"
@BlueKnight07 It's probably the same as the pool in Fates, getting to know one another while getting wet.
I still haven't beaten the main game yet 🙄
They keep calling it a sauna but I don't think they know what it means.
Sigh. I only played a couple hours so far. My back log of games to play is way to big and I can't stop buying more games. cries It's not faiirrrrrr.
Still hoping the gender restrictions will disappear in a future update for the romances... Claude seemed destined to be bi, so what gives?
@RareFan IS is getting it back at the players ever since the "no feet" thing in Awakening. Big Foot will be playable in the next game
@CarterDucote Ha! I agree, I played once, was waiting for this to play my 2nd run and then the last DLC for my last run.
@Bobb
What do you mean with the no feet thing?
@RareFan In Fire Emblem Awakening, the characters' 3D models had very very small stubby feet, as a design choice. Aparently, some vocal players didn't like It and went to make the internet very aware of this problem. People joke that Corrin walked barefoot in Fire Emblem Fates so that people would notice they have normal feet (the game never gives any actual explanation as to why anyone would go to war without proper footwear)
@HobbesNL I'm with you, but it seems Nintendo opposes same sex male relationships for some asinine reason. They are mind bogglingly consistent on that
@Mando44646 I thought they would at least give us more options as dlc, but it seems they do not like more money
@Mando44646 True, although there seems to be some shift in the right direction, e.g. the upcoming Story of Seasons Friends of Mineral Town. It's a step closer. And also, there's Linhardt as an option, so it's not as if there's been no thought given to the subject. Agree with @sakke95 that it also just doesn't seem to be a priority.
Backlog Anxiety: +30!
