Nintendo has announced via its mobile YouTube channel that Fire Emblem Heroes will be recieving a Spring-themed event starting tomorrow.
The "Spring Festival" will give players the chance to summon popular characters such as Chrom, Lucina, Xander and Camilla in Easter-themed clothing; each character will also have unique weaponry from Easter eggs to carrot swords. A special spring prologue story will also become available simultaneously where you must try to defeat the four characters. You can check out the trailer below:
The Spring Festival event will run from from the 30th March 2017 07:00 UTC - 14th April 2017 06:59 UTC in Europe; In the Pacific region, for example, we have a slightly different time of 30th March 2017 12:00 a.m. - 13th April 2017 11:59 p.m.

Are you looking forward to Chrom in bunny ears? Will this make you jump back into the app?

Awww, that Lucina is adorable
I didn't realize I needed bunny girl Lucina until now.
I want them all, but I hope I at least get one...
(Also, Lucina's voice actress changed from Laura Bailey to Alexis Tipton. Huh...)
And lol at "SPRING IS HERE!"
Got bored of this a while ago... it just takes too long to level up heroes properly, and the heavy reliance on luck when getting new characters gets frustrating when some characters are seriously overpowered.
Might go back to it for this event though... just to get the bunny girls.
@DragonEleven things have changed since the beginning
I feel like Camilla is directly referencing playboy
I would love to get an bunny Camilla, not because of the bunny outfit (still a bonus) but because she the only flying unit I current know with range attacks. Makes for a more diverse team setup.
Edit: rereading my original comment I just had to change "pull" to "get". Made the post more creepy than it should be
Never have I needed something so much but never known until I received it.
I only got Chrom. Why couldn't I get Lucina?
@DragonEleven The game is way friendlier right now, I loved since day one but most of your complains are gone. That said, Takumi still broke.
I'm sorry. This is cancer.
I'll never say no to having cute bunny girls.
I don't want this game, but I want the bunny girls...
My brain is at war with itself...
More fan service is good can't wait for the (please be so) inevitable summer of love update
@ultraraichu I don't know if she has range attacks as much as she has savage blow, which hits multiple enemies after a close range attack. Though that is something any unit can inherit.
I want a Lucina regardless, I'll take one with a bunny hat.
I also want them to put amiibo support in this game. Fire emblem amiibo are pretty plentiful and phones and tablets can do NFC reading as far as I understand.
Me during launch: This isn't just about waifus and husbandos, it's bite sized FE ! Really !
Me now: Oh god no. I'm sorry.
I just hope I don't get a third Camilla
If I was younger, I'd probably give a damn about pixelated people in bunny suits.
I guess I'm in the minority here but I hate how overtly sexualised the imagery in the FE games has gotten. It reached a tipping point for me with Fates where I actually stopped playing on public transport because I felt embarrassed to be seen looking at it. I like the game because of the strategy aspect of the gameplay first, then the story. The sexy stuff feels totally unnecessary and makes it look like a junk game.
I have 140 orbs I was saving up for Ike............But screw it this needs me more
I must get Lucina!
Man I don't care about this spring themed content I just want Ike... when am I getting Ike?????
It would have been the perfect opportunity to add Yarne and Panne... Unless they already exist in the game and I just happened to miss them. But yeah, Chrom and Lucina are kinda cute
Cute Lucina and really need to download this game later today.
I feel Xander has lost a bit of dignity with this...
Also is it me or did Xanders voice just hit reverse puberty? That did not sound like him at all xD
@Switch81tch Ya I tryed it but that game got boring after a week of playing. Which may just be me as I usually drop games after a week or so of playing. FE Heroes has been the only game to keep my attention for so long. That or DragonballZ Dokkan battles but I gave that up a while ago lol.
@Frank90 Takumi? ha! wait til you see a Nino with fury coming at you (buffed by 2 other units and a dancer)
@Neon_Blues Welcome to the Waifu Wars.
FE: Heroes has entered the Dark Side of Free to Play.
And it is glorious.
Things like this make me really curious about how receptive the current fanbase will be towards a more classic FE like Shadows of Valentia. Supports are still a thing in that game, but not marriage IIRC.
Personally, I hope they tone down the otaku pandering. Fates got embarrassing at times, to say the least.
@Room101 But Takumi it's broke by his own merit. There's almost no good unit to face him bar Effie and Hector. Maybe Zephiel late April will put him on the hold.
I don't mind sexy, and I don't mind sexy in games, but taking what was originally a mature fantasy strategy RPG and morphing it into more and more of a waifu/husbando dating sim is a slap in the face to many fans, and a company like Nintendo endorsing the sexualization of their characters, even in a spin off mobile game, just cheapens the series as a whole.
It'd be one thing if this was Bayonetta, or Senran Kagura. But this morphing of Fire Emblem is just sad.
@FierceRagnar that's just the style that part of the series has taken on, but not all characters are like this (most are males) ex: Ogma, Arthur, Beruka, Eliwood, Gunther, Gwendolyn, and plenty more. Also if you don't like the style that's fine, the style they mostly use is popular so why not use it??
Nice! I will try to get in on this action! If I don't forget that is!
I want that Camilla for two reasons.
This is just so incredibly weird. I don't know what to make of it to be honest...
Omg Lucina's voice for the spring variant in the japanese version sounds so weird i can't get it out of my head.
