According to Nintendo&#8217;s official eShop listing, the estimated file size for this new entry, transporting players to the Dagdan Empire, will require 29.5GB of space. Keep in mind Nintendo&#8217;s first-party titles also receive day-one and post-launch updates, which change the file size.<\/p>\n<p>In comparison, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/fire_emblem_three_houses\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fire Emblem: Three Houses<\/a> on the Switch requires 11.5GB of space and the other Switch title <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/fire_emblem_engage\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fire Emblem Engage<\/a> is 16.5GB. You can find more about what to expect from the new Fire Emblem game in our preview. Here&#8217;s a sample with the game launching on 17th September 2026.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fortune&#8217;s Weave is dense, and I have been overwhelmed by its size on more than one occasion, but as I approached the end of the preview section, I could feel myself falling for its complexity. This might just be the ultimate take on the Three Houses formula, and much to my surprise, I&#8217;m completely on board with it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, Nintendo also revealed estimated file sizes for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch-2\/legend_of_zelda_ocarina_of_time\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch-2\/metroid_ravenous\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Metroid Ravenous<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Are you excited for this game&#8217;s arrival next week?
