Fire Emblem is a series known for its birthday messages and surprises. While you play as an avatar, there's nothing stopping you from giving them your own name and setting the birthdate as your own.

Entering the barracks in Fire Emblem: Awakening during your in-game birthday involves a brief cutscene where a character will congratulate you. In Fates, characters spoken to on their birthdays get a large boost in their stats. The player character, Corrin, will also be congratulated by many of the characters, as well as getting flowers from their spouse.

At the start of your first birthday in Three Houses, you get a present from one of the house leaders that increases your charm by two. You will also get a letter wishing you a happy birthday. Characters in Three Houses have birthdays throughout the year where you can send flowers or even invite them to a tea party. So next time you boot up Three Houses on your special day, why not invite your favourite character for a spot of Honeyed-Fruit Blend?
