Today, we have further details of the upcoming Version 5.5.0 update for Fire Emblem Heroes, which is planned to release around 6th May 2021, at 11 pm 7 am UTC.
Ahead of the update’s arrival, the game will be down for maintenance between 4 am and 7 am on 6th May 2021 (UTC).
Some of the features were already discussed in the Golden Week Feh Channel, but there’s also some new stuff.
Reserve Barracks
As featured in the Feh Channel, you’ll be able to store a total of 1000 Heroes using the new reserve barracks. There will be 10 reserve barracks, each with a maximum capacity of 100 Heroes. You can manage your reserve barracks via the Allies menu.
Move to Reserves: Use this to move up to 10 Heroes from your main barracks to the first reserve barracks with available space. You can also rename each of your reserve barracks.
Manage Groups: Lets you freely move your Heroes between your main barracks and all 10 reserve barracks. Again, you can select up to 10 Heroes at once.
Heroes sent to reserve barracks will unequip their Sacred Seals, Accessories and Pair Up partners. Also, they will lose their Summoner Support (although the wording is unclear if this is temporary or permanent).
