For those of you who may be living under a rock, Nintendo had their first proper Nintendo Direct earlier in the week. Along with this we had gotten a bevy of news and surprises for gaming, including numerous details on KOEI Tecmo.

It was confirmed now that Fire Emblem: Three Houses has been given an official release date and appeared on the Switch eShop, it showcases that KOEI Tecmo are also developing the game alongside Nintendo and Intelligent Systems. This isn’t the first time KOEI Tecmo has lent their aid to co-develop other publisher’s IP, such as upcoming Dragon Quest Builders 2 from Square-Enix.

We are yet to know what exactly KOEI Tecmo are developing for the game, but can only think it’s to do with the Strategy RPG nature of the combat, which KT specialise in (outside of their Warriors gameplay).

You can check out the Nintendo Direct trailer for Three Houses below:

Fire Emblem: Three Houses launches worldwide July 26th exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.
