Corrin sides with Hoshido, refusing to serve King Garon, and the Hoshidan royals force their Nohr counterparts to retreat. Soon afterward, Corrin, along with [[Sakura]], helps in the defense of Fort Jinya against Nohr invaders, recruiting [[Silas|an old Nohr friend]] in the process, and learns about the disappearance of [[Ryoma]] and [[Takumi]] near [[Izumo]]. While passing through Wind Tribe territory, Corrin's soldiers and Wind Tribe combatants are tricked into attacking each other by [[Iago]], Garon's advisor. Corrin's army is then forced to fight the Wind Tribe to prove their innocence, but eventually reaches Izumo after recruiting [[Hayato|a young Wind Tribe diviner]] and [[Hinoka]]. In Izumo, they are ambushed by [[Zola]], a Nohr mage impersonating Duke [[Izana]]. At the end of the fight, Zola is taken as a prisoner and [[Leo]], of the Nohr royal family, briefly appears, letting Corrin notice a change for the worst in his behavior. Heading for the Bottomless Canyon to investigate the site of a recent battle, Corrin's army is attacked by the [[Mokushu]] ninjas, who were promised lands if they sided with Nohr against Hoshido. During the battle, a entranced [[Takumi]] appears and is brought to his senses by Azura's chants. The prince tells about how he and Ryoma were attacked by overwhelming Nohr forces before falling in the Bottomless Canyon and losing memories of the next events. Corrin's forces also free [[Kagero]], one of Ryoma's retainers, who reports that the crown prince went for [[Cheve]] in Nohr after hearing about a civil strife. The party ships a boat to travel to Nohr, but they are attacked by the same warriors that killed Mikoto. Zola gains the trust of Takumi by taking a blow in his place.

It was mentioned in the Nintendo Direct broadcast of January 2015 that the choices the player makes during gameplay will have a "greater than ever" effect on the game's world<ref name="nindirect-20150114"/>. It was also revealed that the game will feature challenges "the likes of which have never been seen in the series, up until now".<ref name="nindirect-20150114"/>

The [[Pair Up]] system introduced in ''Awakening'' returns<ref name="teaser-trailer"/>, but it and the accompanying dual guard and dual attack mechanics have been changed. Dual attacks now only occur when the units are adjacent, but not paired up, and dual guards only occur between paired up units.<ref>{{Cite web|author=VincentASM|published=18 May, 2015|retrieved=18 May, 2015|url=http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=53791|title=Rebalanced Dual/Pair Up system|site=Serenes Forest}}</ref>

The game introduces Japanese-style equivalents to the traditional weapons in the ''Fire Emblem'' series: the [[wikipedia:Katana|katana]] (刀), a form of single-edged sword, the [[wikipedia:Naginata|naginata]] (薙刀), a type of polearm with a weapon triangle advantage over swords, the club (Japanese: {{hover|金棒|kanabō}} [[wikipedia:Kanabō|''kanabō'']]), a truncheon-like weapon, the yumi (Japanese: {{hover|和弓|Wakyū}} ''Japanese bow''), a Japanese bow, and the scroll (Japanese: {{hover|呪|Ju}} ''spell''), fan-like talismans used to cast magic. [[Knife|Dagger]]s return to the series from their previous appearance in ''Radiant Dawn'', and are accompanied by their Hoshidan counterpart, the shuriken (Japanese: {{hover|手裏剣|shuriken}} ''shuriken''). The [[weapon triangle]] has been altered to encompass all weapons: swords/katanas and tomes/scrolls defeat axes/clubs and bows/yumi, axes/clubs and bows/yumi defeat lances/naginata and daggers/shuriken, and lances/naginata and daggers/shuriken defeat swords/katanas and tomes/scrolls.

[[Monsters]] make a return, with a golem like monster bearing the Mouth of Truth ([[Stoneborn]]) as a face appearing in the CGI trailer.<ref>http://serenesforest.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Jan_001.jpg</ref> There is also another large built monster, defeated by [[Xander]] in the trailer, who appears to be wearing some sort of mask ([[Faceless]]).<ref>http://serenesforest.net/wp-content/gallery/january-2015-nintendo-direct/Jan_016.jpg</ref> In the April direct, this monster was shown to be called "Nosferatu" ({{hover|ノスフェラトゥ|Nosuferatu}}).

The game also features damage to a unit's armor, in the Nintendo direct, Corrin is seen attacking an axe using enemy, when the enemy takes damage, their pauldrons shatter.<ref>http://i.imgur.com/TsiDwjd.png</ref> The masked monster mentioned earlier also loses its mask when damaged, as demonstrated by Xander. This feature is purely aesthetic, and has no direct effect on gameplay. This was actually present as a feature in {{FE13}}, but only seen on [[Grima (character)|Grima]]; his face plate is destroyed past a certain amount of damage.

Some [[terrain]] bonuses have been altered; for example, water tiles now subtract 10 [[avoid]].<ref>http://i.imgur.com/tWGKubm.jpg</ref>

Unlike other games, non-human weapons such as [[dragonstone]]s and [[beaststone]]s now have a [[weapon rank]] that can increase from E to A like most other weapons.
