Warriors: Twitter Poll for Conversation Reveals

June 30, 2017 FE Warriors, News 5 comments

The Fire Emblem Warriors Japanese Twitter account is currently holding a poll to decide one of four conversation scenes to reveal ahead of the game’s release.

The choices in descending order are: Marth x Chrom, Rowan x Liana, Ryoma x Chrom and Corrin x Xander. The poll runs until 5th July 2017 at 18:00 (Japanese time).

As a bonus, if the poll gets retweeted 2000 or 3000 times, the 2nd and 3rd choices will be revealed as well. Of course, the conversations shown will probably be in Japanese, but we’re sure someone helpful will come along to translate for us.

Fire Emblem Heroes released its changelog for their version 1.5 update, which will include quite a few quality of life updates (Double SP Weekends, among other benefits), as well as some new play modes. Summoners can look forward to an improved Tempest Trials experience, and take part in the new Chain Challenge and Squad Assault story maps, each with their own neat twists.

Additionally, just hours before the official release of the much anticipated summer-themed banner, Nintendo released the video debuting the Ylissean Summer event, bringing in a new banner as well as a new paralogue series. Click here for the Japanese video.

Don’t pay too much heed to the incredible Frederick impersonation performed by Gaius during his debut

With the Ylissean Summer banner lasting throughout the entirety of July (June 30 until August 1), you have plenty of time to either save up some orbs, or spend them in hopes of recruiting the axe-swinging Tiki, the dagger-flinging Frederick, the harpooness Robin (F) and the bow-wielding Gaius, along with their unique weapons and slew of special skills not yet made available.
