Nintendo has a remarkable way of keeping its fans engaged, and Fire Emblem Heroes is a shining example of this dedication. Now celebrating its 8th year—a significant milestone in the mobile gaming world where unexpected shutdowns are common—the strategy RPG continues to captivate players with special quests and a free summoning event as part of its anniversary celebrations.

For gacha enthusiasts, the news of a summoning pool featuring 5-Star Special Heroes is thrilling. The 8th Anniversary Celebration brings these coveted heroes within reach. The Binding Worlds events have been enhanced, allowing you to ally with two heroes at once, and the Hall of Forms now offers three skills of each type in its highest chamber, adding depth to your strategic gameplay.

Tactical gameplay sees an upgrade too, with the tactical retreat feature now usable up to three times in the Arena and Arena Assault+. For those who missed out on certain heroes before, the Legendary Revival 1 event brings back Past Legendary Heroes as 5-star Focus Heroes. If you summon 40 times or more, you'll have the chance to choose one of these 5-star Focus Heroes for free.

The Ver. 9.2.0 update is packed with even more exciting additions, which you can explore in the official patch notes. If you're new or looking to optimize your team, check out our tier list and reroll guide.
