Earlier today, Nintendo released a trailer detailing all of the DLC maps available for its 3DS strategy RPG Fire Emblem Awakening, including a look at the upcoming Lost Bloodlines, Smash Brethren, and Rogues Packs.

Unlike previous add-on maps, which awarded players rare items or a legendary hero for use on their teams, the Lost Bloodlines and Smash Packs will also introduce two new character classes to the game: the Dread Fighter class, and the Bride class. Both classes can be induced through a special item that is obtained only by clearing its respective map. All three DLC packs will also add new legendary heroes to recruit, including Ike from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and its Wii followup, Radiant Dawn; Lyn from Fire Emblem on Game Boy Advance; and Seliph from the Japan-only Genealogy of Holy War, among many others.

Nintendo has already released six additional maps for Fire Emblem Awakening, with a new one available to download every week. Players can purchase each map individually for $2.50 (with the first one, Champions of Yore 1, available for free until March 5), or as a three-pack at a slightly discounted price.
