Parent Pro-Tip
Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest offers a rich strategic experience, but it is part of a larger, multi-path game. Be aware that the game encourages the purchase of additional story content. While the violence is mild and fantastical, discuss with your child the importance of making ethical choices within the game's narrative, as it involves choosing sides in a war and making difficult decisions.
