Fire Emblem Shadows has revealed Claude: Uniting Wind for its Uniting Wind Season Pass. Check out how the new unit works and when the leader of the Golden Deer house will be available in the game.
Fire Emblem Shadows Adds Three Houses’ Claude Through Uniting Wind Pass
Available May 28, 2026
Fire Emblem (FE) Shadows has revealed Claude: Uniting Wind as the featured recruit for its next Season Pass. According to the trailer, it will run from May 28, 2026, at 6:00 AM UTC (May 27, 2026, at 11:00 PM PT / May 28, 2026, at 2:00 AM ET) until June 26, 2026, at 5:59 AM UTC (June 25, 2026, at 10:59 PM PT / June 26, 2026, at 1:59 AM ET).
Claude comes from Fire Emblem: Three Houses, a mainline entry in Nintendo and Intelligent Systems’ tactical RPG series. He leads the Golden Deer house, one of the three student houses players can choose to follow.
His reveal adds another Three Houses house leader to FE Shadows, with Official Shadows notices having already referenced Dimitri and Edelgard in the game.
Claude’s Skills and Uniting Wind Season Pass Rewards
Players can recruit Claude by collecting 12 Claude: Uniting Wind Souls. The reward summary lists Claude Soul x3 under the Free Pass and Claude Soul x9 under the Premium Pass, matching the total needed to add him to the team.
The trailer also previews several rewards tied to the pass, which include 8,000 coins, 3,600 gems, 180 Disciple Medals, skill-related rewards, and tickets. Meanwhile, the Premium Pass offers 26,000 coins, a 7-star Failnaught, 560 Disciple Medals, additional skill-related rewards, and tickets.
Claude’s shown kit focuses on green magic, movement control, attack reduction, and area damage. Crosswind Grav EX deals green damage in a cross-shaped area while permanently limiting enemy movement, making it useful for slowing down enemies before they can close in.
Edge Break Pull permanently reduces a target’s attack and moves that target closer. This gives Claude a debuff-and-positioning tool that can weaken an enemy while shifting their placement on the battlefield.
Final Tetrawind is shown as a one-use area attack that deals repeated green damage in a 2x2 area, making it a stronger timing-based skill rather than a regular attack option. Darkwind Cross+ is also shown as a green skill for bow wielders, dealing repeated green damage after a short delay in a 3x3 cross-shaped area.
Fire Emblem Shadows Mixes Strategy With Social Deduction
Fire Emblem Shadows is a smart-device game from Nintendo that mixes real-time strategy with social deduction. The game has players fight through battles while also figuring out which characters may be working against the group.
The game is available on iOS and Android. Claude: Uniting Wind is joining through the Uniting Wind Season Pass, giving Fire Emblem Shadows another character-focused mobile update tied to a recognizable mainline Fire Emblem character.
