FEE3 2023 is live!

FEE3 2023, the marquee romhacking showcase of the year, is now underway! The first four videos have got the event off to a flying start, with trailers from the Thracia-inspired and complete A Vestrian Tale and the avant-garde Two Milkmen Go Comedy, a mind-blowing LTC clear of Cerulean Coast, and more beautiful animation work from the peerless Nuramon.

Videos will be uploaded to this playlist, or you can keep up with the event as it progresses by subscribing to the FEUniverse channel.

Upcoming Event: FEE3 2023!

Things have changed a lot since the days of The Last Promise. New utilities have made hacking more accessible than ever, while continually pushing the envelope of how far the GBA engine can go. And if that’s not enough, the Tactile and Lex Talionis engines allow for even more innovation in gameplay and graphics.

But some traditions remain the same, and the highlight of every year in the hacking community is Fire Emblem E3 (FEE3), which has been running for over a decade and, by now, outlasted its namesake. FEE3 provides an opportunity for the community to come together and showcase their work, often with trailers or commentated gameplay footage. Many submissions are for projects still in the making, offering a proof of concept and progress, while others proudly showcase hacks and fangames completed over the past year.

This year, FEE3 is slated to run 58 videos over 15 days, starting on the 7th of October with a showcase of A Vestrian Tale, a recently-completed campaign that incorporates many features from Thracia 776. Along the way will be videos as varied as an animation showcase from Nuramon, who has gone on to work for Dark Deity, a number of different roguelike spins on the FE formula, and even Pokémblem, which is exactly what you think and hope it is. It concludes on the 21st, with a trailer for the revival of old stalwart Dream of Five.

The full schedule can be found here. Videos will be posted on the FEU YouTube channel, where you can also find previous years’ entries.

Fire Emblem Heroes Celebrates its 1000th Hero!

With the addition of the latest summoning event, New Heroes, Ascended Ced & Rearmed Plumeria, Fire Emblem Heroes now has 1000 Heroes in the game.

The honour of being the 1000th Hero goes to Patty, Brigid’s daughter from Genealogy of the Holy War.

Players can obtain free copies of Patty by completing special celebratory quests. Afterwards, she’ll start appearing in new summoning events.

Other quest rewards include 10 Arena Reward 3 summon tickets, plus a snazzy accessory. On top of that, there’s a log-in bonus where you can pick up 100 of each Dragonflower, 100 Trait Fruit and more.

Nintendo also shared a cute YouTube video to mark the occasion.

Besides that, they’ve opened a celebration site where you can watch this video and play around with an icon maker. There’s a “Coming Soon” section too, which will open on 21st September.

Finally, if you’re a North American or Canadian resident, you can try your luck at the 1000 Heroes celebration sweepstakes. Up for grabs are 20 acrylic stands featuring some of the Heroes, such as Legendary Marth, Valentine’s Chrom & Robin, Legendary Veronica and Halloween Sothis.
