The wait has been long (six months, in fact), but finally, the second batch of New Heroes from Fire Emblem Engage are upon us.
The newly added Heroes include Diamant, Citrinne and Rearmed Alcryst, alongside Eitr from the on-going Tempest Trials story, Nihility & Dreams.
Lapis will also be available as a 3-4 star Hero. Additionally, Zephia will appear in the next Grand Hero Battle.
But that’s not all: male Alear will be given to Summoners for free, via a Log-in Bonus.
This is practically bringing me out of the woodwork. Nintendo of America gave us a pretty exciting tweet just a short while ago; All Nintendo Switch Online+ users will finally have access to play Fire Emblem Blazing Blade, and it’s in a week! You heard it here, folks!

For the Japanese NSO account holders; both Fire Emblem Blazing Blade and Fire Emblem Binding Blade are coming out on the same day. English NSO+ account holders will not have access to Binding Blade, which is unfortunate, but maybe we will one day. Regardless; we can finally play this on the go, legally to boot! I wonder how the Link Arena will work…
At WonHobby Gallery 2023 Spring, a new scale figure for Corrin in her Nohr Noble attire was revealed.
The figure is expected to release on June 2024, so just over a year away.
Intelligent Systems has added a product page on their website, featuring a 360 degree showcase, plus artwork and a comment from Yusuke Kozaki, who designed the characters.
Here’s our translation of his comment:
No way, Corrin is getting a scale figure and it’s the popular Nohr Noble outfit too!
It has a really cool finish and looks great from every angle. It seems CG is used for prototyping these days–the realistic shape of the cape and the silhouette of the flowing hair is a clear sign–and the quality has improved a lot in recent years.
It’s already been 8 years since the release of Fire Emblem Fates, but I’m delighted that we still have the chance to sculpt it with the latest technology!
Good Smile Company (the distributor) also has their own product page. Below are photos from the page.
