Fire Emblem: Three Houses

8-4 has worked with Nintendo in the past on the localization of Fire Emblem games. The partnership first came about for Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon, followed by Fire Emblem Awakening and Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia.

This week, Nintendo gave us a first look at its new Switch Fire Emblem title, Fire Emblem: Three Houses. 8-4 confirmed shortly after however that the company is not involved. That would seem to indicate that Nintendo is handling its localization internally for this particular game.

Fire Emblem Heroes has started its latest event. Tempest Trials+: Feudal of the Fangs is now live.

The 5-star hero Canas: Wisdom Seeker and two Sacred Seals (Earth Dance 1 and Res Tactic 1) can be earned as rewards. Clear maps to raise your score and earn rewards. You can also receive Refining Stones by completing daily quests.

We’ll also briefly mention that Special Maps: Rival Domains has seen its regularly weekly update. Bonuses can be earned for defeating foes with cavalry allies.

Thanks to StrawHatEevee for the tip.

A couple of new quests are now available in Fire Emblem Heroes. A set of quests for Tap Battle will be available for the duration of the current run of the Illusory Dungeon. Two notable rewards for these quests are new accessories: the Swim Goggles and Askran Hairpin.

Also, new Arena quests are available. As with previous times quests like these were available, they come in three difficulty tiers, so as soon as you clear the Normal tier of quests, the Hard tier becomes available, and then there’s a set of Lunatic difficulty quests after that. These quests will reset in six days, and then they’ll be available for another week after that.

Fire Emblem Heroes is hosting a Tempest Trials+ event starting June 16. In celebration of Feud of the Fangs, the game has kicked off a summoning focus event for the bonus allies. Three Heroes from among the bonus allies are available as part of the 5-star summoning focus.

In Tempest Trials+, bonus allies will receive double the EXP and SP. That means you can train them up faster.

Fire Emblem Heroes has added in some new content involving a Grand Hero Battle and Tap Battle: Illusory Dungeon. Get a look at some footage of the events below.

Fire Emblem Heroes’ next new Grand Hero Battle has started. It features Linus: Mad Dog from Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. It’ll be available until June 19th. 

Intelligent Systems has published a new event calendar for Fire Emblem Heroes, which you can see in the image above. It outlines all of the game’s upcoming events up until early July.

Also, the next Tap Battle: Illusory Dungeon has started. Titled Legendary Heroes, it will be available until July 11th. In addition to the daily Tap Battle quests, new Tap Battle quests will be available starting June 14th, which will let you earn orbs and new accessories.

The next addition of accessories after that is planned for mid-July.

Fire Emblem Heroes has kicked off a New Power summoning focus, giving players a chance to pick up four Heroes who have gained new skills as 5-star units. The new weapon skill Breath of Fog is present in addition to new weapons to refine, Aura and Excalibur.

Also, Bridge of Wind has been added as a new Blessed Gardens map. Fire Emblem Heroes had its usual Special Maps: Rival Domains update yesterday as well.

As part of the latest content update for Fire Emblem Heroes, a new story chapter is available. Check out some footage from The King’s Demise below.

Alongside Fire Emblem Heroes’ 2.6 update, the previously announced Scattered Fangs summoning focus has gone live. Nino: Pale Flower, Karla: Sword Vassal and Legault: The Hurricane are the 5-star focus units. 

There are also new story missions available. In fact, they are the final missions of the Book II storyline. As always, there are also accompanying quests that can get you more orbs.

Starting today, “Four Heroes” maps are coming to Special Maps. Four the next four days, one map will be added each day featuring a specific hero. Beating that map will get you a 3-star version of that hero. They are as follows:

June 8th – Roy: Young Lion; June 9th – Tailtiu: Thunder Noble; June 10th – Barst: The Hatchet; June 11th – Kaze: Easygoing Ninja

One new feature added in the 2.6 update were acccessories. Starting today until July 20th, three quests are available that get you one accessory each: Seashill Hairpin, Mysterious Mask and Spring Bunny Hat.

The Special Orb Promo: June is now available. You can buy 21 orbs and 60 Refining Stones for a reduced price.

Finally, there’s an issue with Tap Battle. Specifically, every player’s progress on the current Illusory Dungeon: Sanctuary of the Mages has been reset. However, you can’t actually get the “first clear” rewards again despite the game telling you so. Intelligent System has identified this issue, but currently has no plans to fix it as the current Illusory Dungeon will only be available for two more days. Instead, compensation orbs will be sent out to all players as an apology. Also, the next Illusory Dungeon, Legendary Heroes, will be available on June 11th.
