Heroes: “Familial Festivities” Features Spring-themed Heroes from Binding Blade… and Est!

It’s almost time to hippity-hop in Fire Emblem Heroes again, as a new bunch of bunny Heroes make their introduction in the “Familial Festivities” trailer, released today!

Earlier, Feh teased two silhouettes; if you guessed they were Bartre and Est, give yourself a cookie. The Special Heroes featured in the upcoming banner are: Est, Fir, Narcian and Duo Idunn and Fae. As for Bartre, it looks like he’ll be our Tempest Trials+ reward.

The “Familial Festivities” banner will run from 18th March to 18th April 2020 (UTC). Narcian will also be available as a 4-star focus Hero. For more details about the Heroes in the banner, please continue reading.
