For the first time ever, your customised avatar is the main hero. Guide your army through challenging turn-based battles, and devise your plan of attack based on your allies' classes, weapons and support levels. Each unit and weapon has strengths and weaknesses that you must balance against the foes they face. Partner your allies on the battlefield so they can support one another in combat. Building relationships is key – the closer your allies become, the better they’ll fight together. With the new castle feature, you can create a home away from home for your army. Shop at weapon and armour shops, get new accessories and practise your strategy by fending off invasions. By adding new buildings and features to your castle as you go, you can build your homestead as you see fit. Players you encounter via StreetPass will also show up in castle's Travelers' Plaza, giving you the chance to meet their StreetPass teams in battle! When you're not fighting off Nohrian or Hoshidan soldiers – or both! – put your skills to the test against real-life opponents! Test your tactics against friends locally with Local Play, or take the battle online* against friends or randomly matched players.
