Heroes: New Legendary Heroes Banner & TT Mini: Shrouded by the Storm!

The recent Feh Channel announced a lot of exciting things to come soon to Fire Emblem Heroes. To the excitement of our players, some of it even starts today! The latest Legendary Hero Summoning Event has started, alongside the newest Tempest Trials Mini: Shrouded by the Storm.

The newest Legendary Hero to join Heroes is none other than a new version of Ike! This time, Ike is based on his Radiant Dawn appearance, and he comes with an Earth Blessing. Check out our earlier article for a look at Ike’s abilities and the other heroes appearing in this banner.

This special Legendary Hero Summoning Event will be around for just a few short days, ending on 5 February.

Additionally, the latest TT Mini: Shrouded by the Storm also begun today! Masked Marth arrives to speak with Princess Fjorm, not realizing that the princess is actually a doppelgänger…

The opening page displays all pertinent information, such as your score and the available Bonus Allies. When you’re ready, hit Select Stage to begin your battle and work towards the final map…

There is no separate TT banner this time around, as all of the Bonus Allies are available in the current Legendary Hero banner. Ike: Vanguard Legend, Gunnthrá, Fjorm, and Performing Arts Azura are all available as 40% allies. Marisa, Brave Lucina, and Summer Robin and Xander are 20% allies.

As usual for Mini TTs, the rewards cap out at 50,000 points. Here are some of the highlights:

  • Units: 4★ Marisa at 1,000 and 5★ Marisa at 15,000.
  • Sacred Seals: Poison Strike 1 at 6,000, Hone Atk 1 at 10,000, and Drive Def 1 at 20,000.

You can also earn a bunch of Orbs, Hero Feathers, Sacred Coins, Shards, and Crystals. Daily quests have also returned to reward you with a few goodies for playing the maps daily.

Tempest Trials Mini: Shrouded by the Storm will be around for one week, ending on 7 February.

Feh Channel Chills Out: What’s Coming to Heroes?

It’s been a pretty exciting buildup to wait for the first Feh Channel livestream of the year, and if you missed it, you missed a lot!

For starters, we’re greeted by our adorable Feh, as we’re introduced to a cake made especially for Feh’s first birthday (January 18) by the Heroes development team. She’s quite excited. Pay close attention to the macarons on top of the cake, as they’re today’s Orbs for news.

Incoming Feh Channel | Jan. 30 at 11:30 PT

As if things weren’t exciting enough for Summoners, what with the New Years Banner coming to a close and Lyon setting the stage for the latest Tempest Trials, @NintendoAmerica gave us a sneak peek at an upcoming Feh Channel video, with a mere 24 hour warning!

This is bound to be a doozy of a 15 minute spectacle, as this will mark the quickly approaching one-year anniversary of this now award-winning mobile game. Perhaps the Choose Your Legends 2 results will be posted, or perhaps something special for the Askr siblings and Anna. I would personally enjoy an update to what can be done with friends. What do you think we’ll hear announcements on?

If you want to watch, keep an eye on Nintendo Mobile’s YouTube Channel, or just click here to be brought straight to the livestream. For clarity, it’s due to start at 7:30pm PST (11:30pm EST) on January 30th.

Cipher: S12 Sleeve Designs & Ad Image + Winter Livestream Info!

We’re still in a slow period for Fire Emblem Cipher, but some tidbits of information have recently come to light. First and foremost is the official unveiling of the Cipher S12 sleeve designs which feature art from the upcoming set.

The four designs are: Micaiah and the Lehran’s Medallion art from Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, Nowi from Awakening, and pixel art of various FE Cipher Lords. Sadly for Genealogy fans, Jugdrali art won’t be getting sleeves this time around. You can pre-order all four sleeve packs from AmiAmi or CDJapan.

Additionally, an S12 advertisement released in Japan gives us our first glimpse at S12 card mock ups. We get four green cards for Possessed Ike, Astrid, Fiona, and Stefan; two blue cards for Nowi and Chrom; and two yellow cards for Sigurd and Ares.

All of these cards feature artwork that’s already been revealed, but there is no text yet. Also, it’s important to keep in mind that these mock ups do not necessarily reflect the final cards. For example, even though Ike has a N/HN border in this card, it’s more likely that the final product will be an R or an SR.

Finally, @fecipher has shared some details for the upcoming Winter Livestream! Ryota Kawade and Young will be joined by Yuuki Kuwahara, the voice actress for Effie and Ophelia in Fates. A teaser image released alongside the stream announcement also hints at the appearance of another Cipher original character!

The livestream will take place on 17 February. Based on previous schedules, this means we will likely start getting daily S12 card reveals on Monday the 12th, or perhaps even as soon as the 5th! Regardless, it will be nice to finally start seeing some cards from the set.

For now, that’s all the news we have, but hopefully more will be coming shortly!
