Nintendo's hit strategy-RPG Fire Emblem series, which has been going strong for more than 30 years, continues its journey on smart devices. Fight battles customized for touch screens and on-the-go play. Summon characters from across the Fire Emblem universe. Develop your Heroes' skills, and take them to new heights. This is your adventure—a Fire Emblem that's like nothing you've seen before! This application is free to download and offers some optional in-app purchases. ■ An epic quest The game features an ongoing, original story where new characters and dozens upon dozens of battle-tested Heroes from across the Fire Emblem universe meet. There are over 2,700 story stages available as of August 2025! (This total includes all difficulty modes.) Clear these story stages and you'll earn Orbs, which are used for summoning Heroes. New story chapters are added frequently, so don't miss out! ■ Intense battles Take part in strategic turn-based battles streamlined for on-the-go play with maps that fit in the palm of your hand! You'll need to think hard about the advantages and disadvantages of each Hero's weapon...and even evaluate the map itself as you battle. Lead your army with easy touch-and-drag controls, including the ability to attack by simply swiping an ally over an enemy. New to strategic turn-based battles? Don't worry! Use the Auto-Battle option to have your characters fight on their own. ■ Strengthen your favorite Heroes There are many ways to strengthen your allies: leveling, skills, weapons, equipable items, and more. Take your characters to greater and greater heights as you battle for victory. ■ Replayable modes In addition to the main story, there are many other modes where you can strengthen your allies, compete against other players, and more. ■ Original characters meet legendary Heroes The game features numerous Hero characters from the Fire Emblem series and brand-new characters created by artists Yusuke Kozaki, Shigeki Maeshima, and Yoshiku. Some Heroes will fight at your side as allies, while others may stand in your way as fierce enemies to be defeated and added to your army. * Internet connectivity required to play.

Here’s a colorful 6x8 grid. Here’s a zillion Fire Emblem characters. But the skills required to win each turn-based battle? Nintendo doesn’t give you that. Fans are going to be thrilled with Nintendo’s faithful streamlining—heaps of strategy are required in this tactical RPG. But even if you’ve never heard of Fire Emblem, you're bound to dig the epic story and super-varied art styles.

Let me start off by saying I love Nintendo & the Fire Emblem series. I have been a Fire Emblem fan since the GBA days and had some great times playing FE. When I seen that there was a mobile game I jumped on it. I wanted to see if I could feel that same nostalgia again that I felt from FE. It was fun until I played online against other players and got literally destroyed by their super characters. That’s when I realized okay I need to step my game up and get some better characters. Opened up my wallet and dropped money on the FEH pass which is a monthly membership with special benefits thinking it would help me get better heroes it doesn’t. You have to buy these characters as well and they are old characters that have new skins with no real chance of fighting the new game characters that are coming out. That being said I bought a 60 orb pack to spin the wheel and get some new better units. I spent over 150+ orbs on the new banner they have with a 10% chance of getting a 5 star hero I like and I didn’t get not one. It really makes me sad that they slutted out one of my favorite games as a kid and turned it into a pay to play slot machine. If you’re going to make people spend money at least increase the chances of receiving 5 star units for people with the pass. I think I’m going to remove this game from my phone because I can already tell it’s going to be way too expensive for me to try and play this competitively.

I wanted to leave this review to say to anyone considering downloading the game, it really is something you can enjoy without feeling like you will lose out if you are not always spending your in game currency. The orbs you use to gain new allies are so abundantly available in almost every game mode, that I can count on both hands the number of times I’ve genuinely missed out on some body, and even then it wasn’t because I went orb broke, I just decided to not spend anymore. PLAY THE STORY MODE! The amount of orbs there to gain is genuinely insane. Then play the paralogues under the story mode tab. If you only play the full story on normal and hard, you will take home an exorbitant amount of orbs you can use on so many heroes. The same goes for the paralogues which are just short stories for each seasonal event. This is all before you even throw in the other game modes which all offer orbs as well, and same with the log in bonuses. There are also lots of ways to reduce orb spending such as picking every summoning stone in a summoning circle to make the price 5,4,4,4,3 per stone in the circle. They are also always adding new quality of life features to get more 5 Star heroes more often, so you really won’t have a problem building a sizable army quickly. I hope this helps anyone who is interested but thinks they don’t want to get sucked into something when they don’t really have money to dedicate to a game at the moment

It’s a great game in general and it’s a great game if you’re just getting into the series and want to learn the basics. What is great about this is that when units “die”, they don’t stay dead. It is great in other games to have that challenge and to find a way to make it through without units dying but in this game for the amount of story there is and the many modes, it’s great to have units that do not permanently disappear. What I personally don’t like is the little amount of Hero Feathers given over time and that they don’t give out too many five star units. I feel like we spend so many orbs and get a majority of the same units over and over again. One other thing I don’t like is that I feel like any computer that is a five star + is over powered and that the computer isn’t balanced sometimes, I do like the special challenges and the different map and character battles. There should be a once a month change up to where you could pick either one four or one five start unit from a small amount of heroes so you can either select one new character or one character to merge to increase stats especially if rare units. I hope they keep adding more chapters to the story soon because I feel like I’m always waiting forever!!! That’s my honest feedback. The game and all of it is designed well but to me, it feels like it needs those slight tweaks. I hope this helps anyone else and or the developers in any way.-Mark
