The Nintendo Treehouse Tumblr page added in a new entry focusing on Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia today. We’re introduced to a few characters from Alm’s army: Alm himself, plus Clair, Faye, and Lukas.

You can read the full blog post here. Some lovely concept art is located below, too.

Fire Emblem Heroes

Nintendo has started to take action against those who have been using Fire Emblem Heroes inappropriately. Countermeasures are now in place to put any and all end to cheating.

Nintendo may temporarily limit access to certain features. Additionally, players are warned that they could be banned from using the app entirely. This would result in losing all save data, including orbs.

The full notice from Nintendo is as follows:

Several new videos are live for Fire Emblem Echoes showing the game’s English build. The full set is attached below.

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia is a remake of Fire Emblem Gaiden, the Japan-exclusive Famicom title. Using that “Echoes” name may not just be a one-time thing.

A new developer quote (probably from Nintendo Dream or another similar Japanese magazine) has one representative from Intelligent Systems saying that “Echoes” would probably be used again with another Fire Emblem make – if one were to be made.

The person stated:

“We put a lot of thought into a title like ‘echoes’ that can let older games ‘echo’ with the modern players. We were very pleased with it, and, if there were to be more remakes, we would likely use the “ECHOES” title again.”

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia launched in Japan last week. It’s due out on May 19 in North America and Europe.

Thanks to Brian for the tip.

The Greil Mercenaries are coming to Fire Emblem Heroes – the “World of Radiance” content update tomorrow will add Ike, Mist, Soren and Titania to the game. They will be available on a special Summoning Focus with increased appearance rates. In addition to that, new story chapters featuring them will also be added, as well as new quests. Check out the trailer below to get a sneak peek at their abilities:

In a recent interview with ComedynGaming, Kaiji Tang shared some details about his experience being the voice for the Fire Emblem: Awakening character Owain and Fire Emblem: Fates character Odin. Many subjects are touched on in the interview, as the interview covers many of Kaiji Tang’s roles outside of Nintendo properties. We’ve collected the quotes relevant to his role in the Fire Emblem series below. Minor spoilers after the break for Fire Emblem: Fates.

On how Tang got his role in Fire Emblem, and any similarities he sees between him and his character:

“I got the role of Owain like any other actor! A studio was having auditions for the game, I popped in and boom! Some sword hand talk later, some bit about time travel and they deemed me memey enough to become the fervent voice of Owain. I love the guy because we’re both huge, huge nerds who aren’t ashamed to let their geek flag fly. If I had special attacks, I think I’d come up with some pretty edgy names for them too. I absolutely have a blast!”

As was announced yesterday, two previously held Grand Hero Battles, featuring Female Robin and Navarre are available once again in Fire Emblem Heroes. They will be available until May 2nd.

If you already got Robin and Navarre when they first available, you can’t receive them again by beating their Grand Hero Battles a second time. However, you can receive a second copy of each Hero at both of their available rarities by clearing special quests that are available for the duration of this event. Finally, the Helping Hand quests are available once again for the next two weeks. By clearing those, you can get Universal Shards to level up your characters.

The Japanese Fire Emblem Heroes Twitter account has confirmed that Female Robin and Navarre are both returning in the mobile game tomorrow. You should see them at the usual update time via a Grand Hero Battle. Some special quests are expected as well, but the specifics haven’t been shared just yet.
