Fire Emblem Heroes

Fire Emblem Heroes is just on the horizon. Next week, the mobile game will launch around the world.

It’s unclear how much space is required, and Nintendo is ready to give out a specific number. That being said, in a Nintendo customer support email, the company recommends 1 GB of free space. We should have a final answer in just a few days.

Tsunakazu Ishihara, CEO of The Pokemon Company, recently sat down with Nikkei for an interview. Other than some general talk about the games industry and Pokemon GO, he had this to say when asked about safety concerns when playing Pokemon GO:

“To avoid the danger, we also released “Pokemon Go Plus,” the smartphone-linked wearable device, so that “Pokemon Go” players do not have to always be looking down at their smartphone screens. Together with Nintendo, we are thinking of developing a new device that can be played more safely. “

Since the interview was originally conducted in Japanese, there’s always the danger of something being lost in translation, but the word “device” being used here is interesting. Pokemon GO Plus is more of an accessory since you still need an actual smartphone to properly play Pokemon GO, but it seems like Ishihara might be talking about a device here that lets you play the game on its own.

Certainly an interesting possibility, but either way, it seems like this mysterious device is still in the planning stages, so we probably won’t get to see it for a while.

Some additional info has come out about Fire Emblem Heroes – from a customer service e-mail, no less. Reddit user SBelmont sent a mail to the Japanese Fire Emblem Heroes customer support, asking about whether or not the game will have one global server and whether or not players will be able to change the language of the in-game text and voices.

According to the response, there will indeed be one global server for all players, so the user base won’t be fragmented and split over multiple servers divided by region or language, as is the case with many mobile games. Players will also have the option to change the language of the in-game text, but aren’t able to change the language of the in-game voices. This was likely done to keep the download size of the game manageable, as audio files are usually quite large.

Fire Emblem Heroes will be released on iOS and Android devices on February 2nd.
