Fire Emblem: Heroes starts launching on iOS and Android
With more releases through the day.
After a very brief announcement period, Fire Emblem: Heroes is now out in select territories on iOS and Android.
As Nintendo's second title in the mobile world, the strategy RPG Fire Emblem: Heroes pits you against enemies in turn-based combat - and all in the palm of your hand. Use your summoner's powers, call upon the five legendary heroes, and battle to save the Kingdom of Askr.
Unlike Nintendo's mobile entry, Super Mario Run, Heroes is free-to-play and contains a number of IAPs in order to keep the game funded. Whether Nintendo fans will respond more positively or more negatively to this scheme, as opposed to paying for the game after a taster, remains to be seen.
Apparently Heroes' release today is a scattered affair, so far reaching out to the likes of New Zealand, Japan, Australia, the UK, France, and a few other European countries. We'll let you know when it pushes out further, though feel free to comment below if it's out in your country.
Like I said, it's free-to-play so give it a go if you fancy. Grab the game on the App Store or on Google Play now.
