Nintendo and Intelligent Systems announced Guinivere from Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade is coming to Fire Emblem Heroes as a new legendary hero. The Queen of Bern will make her debut with new skills and abilities at her disposal.
In Fire Emblem Heroes, Legendary Hero Guinivere comes equipped with the Radiant Aureola tome, which accelerates Special trigger cooldown and raises effectiveness against magic foes. If a foe initiates combat, Guinivere gains ATK/SPD/DEF/RES +5 and reduces damage inflicted. Guinivere’s attack damage is also raised by 20% of her RES stat. Moreover, Guinivere comes equipped with the Iceberg Special, SPD/RES Finish 4, Null C-Disrupt 4, and Bern’s New Way skills. These skills allow her to support other units by inflicting debuffs on enemies and restoring HP to nearby allies.
Legendary Hero Guinivere makes her Fire Emblem Heroes debut on June 30 at 12 a.m. PDT / 3 a.m. EDT. Guinivere may be summoned from the Legendary Hero (Guinivere: Princess of Bern) summoning event until July 13 at 11:59 p.m. PDT / July 14 at 2:59 a.m. EDT. She is joined by previously released five-star Legendary Heroes and Mythic Heroes from past summoning events this year. A new story chapter will not be introduced alongside Guinivere, but fans can expect a paralogue or story chapter with the next new update to the game.
