The next Voting Gauntlet event in Fire Emblem Emblem Heroes is on its day. Voting Gauntlet: Children’s Day will run from April 30th till May 6th.

  • Fae: Divine Dragon vs Yune: Chaos Goddess
  • Nino: Pale Flower vs Delthea: Free Spirit

There are also two Summoning Foci live right now till May 6th featuring some of those characters. Summoning Focus Set A has Lugh: Anima Child, Tiki: Dragon Scion and Ylgr: Fresh Snowfall as 5-star focus units, while Set B has Nino: Pale Flower, Delthea: Free Spirit and Fae: Divine Dragon.

After much anticipation, the Fire Emblem: Lost Heroes Summon Showcase is now live in Dragalia Lost.
As previously revealed, five-star Adventurers Earth, Fjorm, and Veronica are now available for summoning in the game. 

In partial celebration to the new Fire Emblem: Lost Heroes event in Dragalia Lost, Cygames has also started a new Twitter campaign for players to retweet and earn in-game rewards.

The campaign period is set to last now until May 6th. In total, there are four tiers of retweets that can be reached in order for players to receive increased goodies. The details are included below:

Next, I will cover our mobile business. We are continuously implementing events and updates and adding more ways to satisfy consumers as we work to optimize how we operate each application. Overall revenue from the mobile business has expanded compared to the previous fiscal year. As previously mentioned, we will release both Dr. Mario World and Mario Kart Tour this summer. This means we will be operating a total of six applications globally starting this summer.

As we announced the other day, we are accepting applications for closed beta testing of Mario Kart Tour. The closed beta is scheduled to start on May 21 (Pacific Daylight Time). Based on the information we gather from this testing and from the opinions of the participants, we will proceed with final preparations for release.

The six applications including Mario Kart Tour deal with different IP, and the goals and the characteristics for the
applications also differ. Going forward, we will leverage the ubiquity of mobile devices to expand the number of
people who have access to Nintendo IP through multiple applications like these.

The BHB is available on Hard, Lunatic and Infernal difficulty; clearing them gets you two, three and four orbs, respectively. The maps are available until May 4th.

A Summoning Focus based on the Bound Hero Battle will also be available until May 4th. The 5-star focus units are Titania: Mighty Mercenary, Mist: Helpful Sister and Ike: Young Mercenary.

Finally, Tactics Drills was updated with a new map today. “Close-Quarters Combat” can be found in the Grandmaster section. Clearing it gets you 300 feathers.
