Fire Emblem Heroes

Another new summoning focus and Bound Hero Battle are now available in Fire Emblem Heroes. The summoning focus is called “Ephraim and Eirika’s Battle” and features 5 star versions of Eirika, Seth, and Ephraim.

The third Bound Hero Battle event is tied in with summoning focus so you will be battling against Ephraim and Eirika in 3 difficulty levels (Hard, Lunatic, Infernal). Clearing each map will give you 2 Orbs each.

This summoning focus & Bound Hero Battle will only be available until September 13th.

Fire Emblem Heroes just received a new update. Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have issued version 1.7.0.

The full patch notes are as follows:

・ New Support gameplay feature added.
・ Added a way to view team names when selecting teams.
・ Added an option to search for Heroes by skill within Inherit Skill menu.
・ Added new options to the Settings menu.
・ Bug fixes.

An easier version of the Tempest Trials is coming called the Tempest Trials Mini and to accompany the upcoming trial we get a new focus that includes: Hector, Lyn, Ninian, and Eliwood.

The official Fire Emblem Heroes Twitter account has revealed all of the game’s upcoming events in September, and it’s looking like quite a packed schedule: (thanks to Serenes Forest for providing a translation)

The version update log-in bonus starting in three days means that, well, we’re due a version update pretty soon. Since we haven’t heard anything about until now, it’ll likely be a fairly minor one, but still. Also of note is the game’s first collaboration with Fire Emblem Warriors with special maps dropping on the 21st, one week before the game’s Japanese release on the 28th. Could the new heroes we’re getting on the 15th also be from Fire Emblem Warriors? It’s quite possible.

We are also getting not one, but two Tempest Trials this month, with the Tempest Trials Mini only lasting one week. Two new Bound Hero Battles are also coming, featuring Ephraim & Eirika from Sacred Stones and Ninian & Hawkeye from Blazing Blade. Finally, it doesn’t look we’re getting a new Grand Hero Battle at all this month, merely two reruns featuring Female Robin and Clarisse.

Fire Emblem Heroes has been around for about half a year, and the game is starting up its Choose Your Legends bonus banner tomorrow. With that in mind, Polygon spoke with Intelligent Systems director Kouhei Maeda and Nintendo director Shingo Matsushita about the mobile game. Topics include some of the risque art created for Fire Emblem Heroes, overpowered teams, caution over power creep, and player frustration with colorless units.

Read Maeda and Matsushita comments about these points below. You can find the full interview on Polygon here.
