It's a great time to be a Fire Emblem fan, what with the super-popular Fire Emblem: Three Houses out now on Switch and smartphone game Fire Emblem: Heroes serving as a nice companion to the main course. Now, those two games are set to combine once again with new characters making the mobile leap.

On 7th August at 12am PT, Hubert, Petra, Mercedes, and Hilda from Three Houses will appear as Heroes in the smartphone game. They'll join the male version of Byleth, who is available in Fire Emblem: Heroes for anyone who buys a copy of the Switch game. Full details on how to get him in your game can be found here.
