Nintendo has released a special "Nintendo Music" collection featuring tracks from the upcoming strategy game Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, giving fans an early listen ahead of the title's launch on 17th September 2026. The release followed a Nintendo Direct that detailed the game's characters, combat mechanics, classes, quests and story, forming part of an established pattern of Nintendo pairing new releases with bespoke soundtrack drops on its music streaming app.
The collection comprises 10 tracks totalling around 30 minutes, including "The Blaze – Cycle of the Sun", "Legend of the Endless Flame" and "Bloodstained Arena". Access requires a Nintendo Switch Online subscription, with the app now available on desktop as well as mobile. Nintendo also confirmed a Fire Emblem-themed design for its Nintendo Today! app the following day, while the Direct revealed further plot details, including a story set five years after the "Heroic Games" in which the player character is tasked by the god Sothis with saving the world from the demon god Balor.
