Super Smash Bros Ultimate: Chrom Gets His Day

In today’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Direct, we got plenty of news featuring new incoming characters, stages and more; However, one bit of news sure caught the eye of us here at the Forest.

Chrom finally has a position in the Roster, sporting an Echo Fighter origin (based on Roy). He appears to have a mix of battle styles, using moves similar to Roy’s Dancing Blade (Side-B), as well as Ike’s Aether (Up-B), so he’ll be sure to obtain interest of Fire Emblem fans as a neat, and finally playable, presence in the Smash universe. Check out his SSBU Character Page here.

*Edit; An item from the Fire Emblem universe has been added, the Killing Edge, which has more power based on its glow timing. It’s not explained how the glow is triggered/charged.

Heroes: The Branded King Banner

Summoners got a sneak peek just before the turn of the hour at some new units coming in the tomorrow, in the new banner, The Branded King.

These units will be available in future summoning banners, and will be available indefinitely starting tomorrow night (March 8, 11pm PT). Fans of the Japanese video, click here to watch the Japanese trailer.

Not only did we get a sweet unit trio brought into the fray, featuring two brand new units, but we also got a peek at a new unit (Gerome) and a new weapon type (Colorless Breath). Gerome is identified as a reward for the next Tempest Trials, making him the first green unit that was given out during a Tempest Trial event. What could be coming with the Colorless Breath though, I wonder?

Warriors: New Awakening-themed Trailer

As promised by the official Twitter account, a new trailer for Fire Emblem Warriors has been revealed this week–one that focuses on characters from Awakening.

If you recall, Nintendo/Koei Tecmo accidentally let slip two (or three) new playable characters from Awakening, so the surprise has been slightly ruined. That said, there is one more character revealed who’s not from the aforementioned slip up.

Warning: There are some story spoilers for Awakening.

Famitsu details on FE Warriors in depth

We finally, after nearly 5 months of waiting have some proper information on the upcoming Fire Emblem Warriors.

First off we’ll go over some translated tidbits, all of which come from this week’s issue of Famitsu.

Two original protagonists: Shion and Lian. They are twins from the Kingdom of Aitriss and the children of Queen Yuana.

Shion (VA: Yūma Uchida – Who voices Rock Howard in The King of Fighters XIV in terms of recent game roles.)

The royal prince of the Kingdom of Aitriss. Aspires to be a knight who fights on the front-lines rather than a king and thus encourages his twin sister Lian to inherit the throne.

Lian (VA: Māya Uchida – Who voices Sharena in the Japanese version of Fire Emblem Heroes.)

Shion’s older twin sister. Clever and is understanding of her own faults, so she has no desire to inherit the throne. Rather, she encourages Shion to become king.
