A couple of days ago was the Fire Emblem: Heroes Channel, revealing news for the game’s third anniversary! You can watch the entirety of the announcement video below:
First up, the results of the Choose Your Legends: Round 4 voting! Results are probably not very surprising, with Edelgard and Lysithea taking the women’s division, while Dimitri and Claude are for the men’s.
There will also be the third anniversary celebrations! Look forward to:
- 3rd Anniversary Hero Fests
- Featuring the previous winners of Choose Your Legends
- 3rd Anniversary Present
- 3rd Anniversary Quests
- Celebratory Structure
- Aether Raid Support Quests
- 3rd Anniversary Log-in Bonus
- 3rd Anniversary Daily Bound Hero Battle Revivals
- 3rd Anniversary Reward Maps
- 3rd Anniversary Guaranteed 5-star Special Hero Summon
- 3rd Anniversary A Hero Rises
Each Hero Fest will have five First Summon tickets as an additional login bonus. For the Bound Hero Battles, there will be 18 of them with their corresponding summon banners as well. Rewards will be available even if you’ve already cleared the battles.
Reward maps themed after the various Fire Emblem games will be available to players across 13 days. With two difficulties, you can earn 26 orbs per map!
There will be a guaranteed 5-star Hero summon! You’ll be able to get one of the Heroes featured in the image below.
The 2020 A Hero Rises edition commences! All heroes released up to this point are eligible to be chosen. 8 finalists will then go through a Voting Gauntlet, and then gifted to players. Even if you don’t have the unit you’re supporting, you can still use anyone you like without affecting your contribution. As a note, the Hero Rises Voting Gauntlet ends 7:59 PM PT on 4 March.
There will also be a special banner for Day of Devotion, featuring characters from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. Silque will be available from the corresponding Tempest Trial. Alm and Celica will be a dual unit. The Heroes from this banner onwards can also be acquired as 4-stars, with one Hero designated as the focus 4-star.
The Feh Pass is a new subscription-based model providing five benefits for $9.49 or your regional equivalent every month. Benefits include:

Last but not least is the Compile Combat Manual feature, coming in March.
Divine Codes can be used for these Combat Manuals. The Manuals have their distinct paths which must be unlocked in order. They can get increasingly stronger as you continue down a path. Starting a new path anytime is possible. Limited time Combat Manuals require special Divine Codes, which are not locked to a path and can be obtained right away. More information will be revealed at the version 4.3 notification.
That’s all that was revealed in the Fire Emblem Heroes third anniversary channel. Well, what do you think?
