Fire Emblem Heroes has been updated on both iOS and Android. Version 5.7.0 is now available.
Highlights of the update include a team skill lock feature, new skills for some Legendary Heroes, updated lineup of Limited-Time Combat Manuals, and new weapon skills/weapons to refine. We have the full patch notes below.
As part of Switch version 12.1.0, it turns out that the Joy-Con can also be updated.
This can be done by accessing the system settings. Go to the “Controllers and Settings” tab and scroll down to “Update Controllers”. Joy-Con that are connected should then be updated. Unfortunately, Nintendo has never made it clear what the process actually does.
Switch version 12.1.0 dropped a short while ago. You can read about the system update here.
