Today's the day Fire Emblem fans get to return to the world of Fire Emblem: Three Houses with the Musou follow-up Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. The game is out now on Switch and will see players control Shez and a plethora of Three Houses characters in some hectic hack-and-slash combat.
As we're used to nowadays, the game has received a day one patch to fix some initial bugs and glitches to help make your experience all that bit smoother.
The patch dropped just before the game launched, so if you were lucky to get it early or have just been playing it non-stop since it dropped (we hope you have some coffee!), then make sure you get your game updated and check out what's changed below:
Ver. 1.0.1 (23rd June 2022)
- Fixed a rare issue where the game sometimes freezes at the end of an event.
- Fixed a rare issue where the game sometimes freezes when moving from Base Camp to the War Map.
- Fixed a rare issue where, after selecting a file to save to on the save screen, the screen does not change and progress is blocked.
- Fixed an issue where progressing certain battles in certain sequences causes the player to get stuck and prevents progress.
- Fixed an issue where using a Partner Special at certain times causes the Partner Special to not end and prevents progress.
- Fixed an issue where the switch Lock-On target control does not work when controlling the game with the left or right Joy-Con held horizontally.
- Fixed various other issues to improve comfort of gameplay.
No big surprises here! All standard day one fixes. We were pretty big fans of Three Hopes and praised it lavishly in our 9/10 review. You can also check out Digital Foundry's verdict on the Musou game's performance both docked and undocked right here.

Jeez a "rare" issue that prevented you from loading your save game? Sucks for those without access to the update.
@SteamEngenius But how many people nowadays have a Switch but no access to internet?
Can’t wait! Will be playing this and TMNT all day today!
I'm so excited to pick this up later today at my local game store. I have had the limited edition pre-ordered for a while now. HYPED!
I'm so used to seeing item rarities that I saw "rare issue" and began to imagine other bugs being rated as common, uncommon, very rare, mythic/epic or legendary. Suddenly, encountering a "legendary issue" sounds exciting. Bugs; gotta find em all.
Glad they got things patched.

Thats slowly my thinking as well. It is increasingly incredibly rare to be without internet.
Back when the xbone was announced i was fuming at the "always online"/"authenticate once" concept (despite having rock solid internet), but now its starting to become a non-issue. I actually recently came back from a trip to africa. Had no problem finding a spot with free wifi to download the three hopes Demo.
I have run into an issue where if you use the (I forget what its called, but its the skill fire slash or whatever, that burns enemies that Shez uses) at the same time Manualla casts a spell at you (Azure Gleam) the game freezes.
