Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave Opens With 127,000 Physical Sales in Japan

Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave topped the Japanese physical charts in its debut week, moving 127,131 copies according to Famitsu data. It's a strong opening for the latest entry in Nintendo's long-running tactical RPG series.

The rest of the chart had plenty of new faces too. Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter landed at number 2 on Switch 2 with 24,724 sales, while the PS5 version shifted 21,753 units — a solid combined debut for the RPG. Another Eden Begins also entered the chart, with the Switch 2 version settling at number 6 with 14,708 copies sold.

Fire Emblem has been one of Nintendo's most consistent RPG franchises since its revival in the West with Awakening back in 2012. Fortune's Weave is the newest mainline entry, and breaking 127,000 physical copies in Japan alone in week one puts it in respectable company within the series — though Japan's physical market has been shrinking for years, so digital sales likely push the real total considerably higher.

No official word yet on global sales figures, but Nintendo will likely reference the launch performance during its next financial briefing.
