There’s something festive in the air with the latest batch of special heroes in Fire Emblem Heroes! Just recently, Heroes shared the Winter’s Envoy preview trailer to show off the latest batch of new units. Check it out below!
Our four 5★ holiday heroes are Lissa, Chrom, M!Robin, and Tharja, and they’re all Armored units! Each comes with a unique weapon and at least one new skill. You can see a full breakdown of their skills and abilities at the bottom of the article.
The new summoning focus will go live this coming Monday at 7:00am UTC. A new paralogue, also entitled Winter’s Envoy, arrived at the same time. We’ll also get a new log-in bonus as well! The new banner will last until the new year, ending on 1 January. Like other special heroes, these four will not be added to the general summoning pool once they’re gone.
