Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes - Playable characters and preferred classes list

The Japanese Twitter account for Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes has been publishing details about individual characters on a daily basis, in-between the weekly trailers. With the latest tweets, the new protagonist with all 24 main characters from the three separate factions are now accounted for. We have compiled the translations of preferred classes and personal skills for each playable characters from the Japanese tweets.

An earlier information wave for the game had confirmed that Three Hopes will have a similar class system to the original Fire Emblem: Three Houses. All characters will be able to assume most of the classes available in the game, with a few of them available exclusively to certain people. However, each character in this game will have several preferred classes where they can perform better. In the original Three Houses, this was identified by the characters wearing their original attires instead of the class' common outfits.

Three Hopes' class system will also let a character unlock a higher class by mastering their experience levels in the current class. However, it is yet to be known whether the class rank distribution will have some differences from Three Houses or not. For the horse-related classes—based on Three Houses' rank hierarchy, Sylvain was revealed with the intermediate Cavalier class, while Leonie was shown with the advanced Paladin classes, and then Ferdinand and Lorenz were introduced with the master classes Holy Knight and Dark Knight, respectively.

Speaking of mounted classes, the account also confirmed that Three Hopes will have the same feature as Three Houses where those units can dismount to fight on foot and negate mount-based weaknesses.

We may update this list when more playable characters get revealed ahead of the game's release date. Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes will be available for Nintendo Switch simultaneously worldwide on June 24.

[Update 06/14] The Japanese Twitter account has published more personal details covering all four Ashen Wolves. In addition to them, we have also added more playable characters that are available in the public demo.
