Sex & Nudity

  • A male character usually likes to be around female characters, where he flirts with them, and sometimes has fun bothering them.
  • Some female characters wear low-cut outfits that reveal deep cleavage; characters' breasts are sometimes seen jiggling and/or depicted from closeup angles.

Violence & Gore

  • Cutscenes depict additional acts of violence and blood: a woman stabbing a man repeatedly with a dagger, where blood is seen pooling around the man's dead body, and staining the dagger; characters getting stabbed, shot, or impaled with blood accompanying it sometimes.
  • Battles are depicted from an overhead perspective, with characters moving around a grid-based battlefield. Some attacks are presented from a third-person perspective, with short animated sequences of units shooting arrows, attacking enemies with swords, and casting magic spells.
  • The violence in actual gameplay isn't graphic at all, but the violence during cutscenes can have some blood depicted. Ok for ages 13 and up.

Profanity

  • Damn, and hell are said only a few times in the game.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • A character briefly mentions about wanting to drink wine, but is worried that he might get drunk.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Rated T for Teen (Ages 13+) due to Blood, Suggestive Themes, Violence.
  • This is a strategy role-playing game in which players assume the role of a character helping one of three students hailing from rival nations. Players interact with characters, and engage in quests that lead to turn-based combat against enemies (e.g., bandits, enemy soldiers, demonic creatures).
  • This is easily the darkest Fire Emblem game in the series as it uses a dark fantasy setting instead of the usual high fantasy setting seen in previous games. All 4 routes in the game (Azure Moon, Crimson Flower, Silver Snow, Verdant Wind) are tragic, and have bittersweet endings. This is also the most violent FE game, and there's a lot of death that happens throughout (especially in the second half of the game).
  • All 4 protagonists of each route (Dimitri for Azure Moon, Edelgard for Crimson Flower, Rhea for Silver Snow, Claude for Verdant Wind) end up committing various war crimes that have sparked a lot of debate, and controversy. There's no true good, or evil as they all have different ideals for the good of the continent of Fódlan, but do controversial acts to achieve them. Edelgard is considered to be the most controversial of the 4.
  • If Fire Emblem: Three Houses was a movie, it would be rated PG-13 for fantasy action violence and thematic elements, and a brief alcohol reference.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • This is one of Nintendo's darkest games, and is more suitable for ages 13 and up. If children can handle occasional blood in cutscenes, and the dark, emotional themes depicted throughout, then maybe ages 10 and up.
