Here’s a YouTube playlist with all the videos in one place:
March 28th
Gregory (voiced by Kenjirou Tsuda in Japanese) is a member of the Four Winds.
In the video below, Gregory is seen meeting with Alear and the others after performing infiltration as a reconnaissance unit. It looks like he doesn’t like pain very much…
Gregory’s starting class is Sage. A highly-skilled mage with great magic power. Along with Tomes, he also mastered Staves.
March 27th
Zelestia (voiced by Rika Fukami in Japanese) is the leader of the Four Winds. She’s a demonic dragon who has lived for thousands of year.
In the video below, we see part of a cutscene where she meets Alear. It looks like Alear recognises her from somewhere… Her starting class is Melusine. She dominates the battlefield with powerful magic and swordsmanship.
March 24th
The Four Winds is a group of knights whose mission is to protect Nel and Nil. They look strangely familiar… And for some reason, in this world, Alfred and Céline look somewhat out of sorts…

In the Fell Xenologue, which takes place in another world, battles feature various restrictions and offer a slightly harder experience that the main game. For example, if Alear, Nel, or Nill is defeated, then it’s game over for you. Therefore, you need to be extra careful because while Nel is a powerful unit that can transform into a dragon during battle, Nil’s basic abilities leave a lot to be desired.
Another difference is that this expansion does not feature perma-death: regardless of whether you’re playing on Casual or Classic, units that fall in battle will return after clearing the map.

Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have announced that Wave 4 of the Expansion Pass will come out on April 4th in North America, and April 5th in Europe and Japan. Check out this post for a trailer, some footage, and some more details!
The Fell Xenologue is a side-story that takes place on “another Elyos Continent”. The Divine Dragon is dead, and the battle for the Seven Bracelets is about to begin.
This side-story introduces two new playable characters:
- Nel (voiced by Romi Park in Japanese) is Nil’s twin sister. A strong woman who fights alongside her younger brother. Along with Alear and her brother, she sets out on a journey to collect all seven Bracelets and save the world. While fighting mysterious enemies at the Lythos Castle, she prays for a saviour to come and save the day. Her starting class is Fell Dragon Child. The blood of the Fell Dragon flows in her veins. She wields the Spear, and can transform into a Dragon with the help of a Dragonstone;
- Nil (voiced by Takuya Eguchi in Japanese) is Nel’s younger twin brother. A gentle young man who supports his sister. His abilities don’t quite measure up to those of his fabulous sister, which is a source of embarrassment for him. Together with his sister, he prays for the arrival of the Saviour. Just like his sister, his starting class is Fell Dragon Child, and the blood of the Fell Dragon flows in his veins. He’s really not suited for battle, but he still took up the Axe in the name of peace.
