We’re now just about a month away from the release of Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore on January 17. One of the major additions to this version of the game is a new song + music video – “She Is…”, performed by Tsubasa and Kiria. Today, Nintendo released a 30-second preview of the song:

A new holiday-themed summon focus has come to Fire Emblem Heroes, titled “Glorious Gifts.” Players can obtain special units by summoning on this special banner. Marth: Royal Altean Duo and his Duo Skill will be in the summon pool along with other festive heroes. There are limited-time quests, as well as a login bonus where players can receive up to 13 summon orbs. The details for Marth: Royal Altean Duo’s Duo Skill:

Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+3 and Bonus Doubler to armored and flying allies within 3 rows centered on unit. (That turn only. Does not stack.) ・ Duo Skills can be used once per map ・ Duo Skills cannot be used by units deployed using Pair Up

Additionally, we’ve entered the Brace phase in the Mjölnir’s Strike event. Protect the Kingdom of Askr by building structures and placing allies on the map. This round’s enemy forces will be lead by Robin, so prepare accordingly.

Fire Emblem Heroes is now hosting Summoning Focus: Weekly Revival 8. 5-star Heroes who appeared before the start of Book II appear as focus Heroes, and the focus lineup changes each week.

Players can participate in Summoning Focus: Weekly Revival 8 until December 22.

Fire Emblem Heroes will host Tempest Trials+: For a Smile starting December 17, Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have announced. The 5-star Hero Jaffar: Angel of Night and the three Sacred Seals Warding Blow 1, Steady Posture 1, and Distant Guard 1 can be obtained as rewards.

Ahead of the Tempest Trials+ event, a new summoning event has begun. Three Heroes from among the bonus allies are available as part of a 5-star summoning focus.

Meet the Heroes has received new intros for yet another batch of characters. Players can enjoy intros for Marth: Royal Altean Duo, Zephiel: Winter’s Crown, Sothis: Silver Specter, Nino: Flower of Frost, and Jaffar: Angel of Night this time around.
