So what Nintendo has done here is effectively give Fire Emblem Fates owners enough time to make their in-game choice and download the necessary DLC before the eShop closure.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine the alternative: if the full game had been available right up to the end of March 2023, players would likely not have sufficient time to play through to Chapter 6 and make their story path choice, meaning you&#8217;d be stuck.
