Nintendo released new Fire Emblem Engage videos showcasing Zelestia, a familiar yet new character in the upcoming Fell Xenologue DLC. Zelestia is the counterpart to Zephia in the alternate reality of the Fell Xenologue storyline. She is a Mage Dragon, and thus can live for thousands of years. Her starting class is Melusine, she rides a dragon into battle, and can use swords and tomes to cover most of the field.

Zephia is the leader of the Four Hounds, a group devoted to the Fell Dragon Sombron, in the original story of Fire Emblem Engage. Similar to her counterpart, Zelestia is the leader of the Four Winds, a group of knights who seek to protect twin siblings Nel and Nil, two Fell Children in this alternate world of Elyos.

Alear first meets Zelestia when she reunites with Nel and Nil. Since she resembles Zephia so much, Alear is shocked to meet her at first. Likewise, Zelestia is shocked to see Alear alive and well, as the Divine Dragon died long ago in this alternate Elyos. Rika Fukami reprises her role as Zelestia in the Japanese dub of Fire Emblem Engage, after having previously voiced Zephia.
Fire Emblem Engage is readily available for the Nintendo Switch. Zelestia joins the fray in the new Fell Xenologue story, releasing with Wave 4 of the Expansion Pass DLC on April 5, 2023.
