Update: With Fire Emblem: Three Houses launching today, we thought it might be worth reminding you that picking up a copy of the game grants you access to protagonist Byleth in Fire Emblem Heroes. Full details on how to do exactly that are below!
Original Article (2nd July, 14:30 BST): Fans who buy a copy of Fire Emblem: Three Houses on Nintendo Switch will be eligible to receive a version of the main protagonist, Byleth, in Fire Emblem Heroes.
Byleth is the standard name given to the player's character in the upcoming Three Houses, which can be changed by the player when starting their game. The male version of the character is the one who has been chosen for this special crossover; he'll have a five-star rating and will be called 'Byleth: Tested Professor'.
To get the character in Fire Emblem Heroes, players need to register their copy of Three Houses to their Nintendo Account - the same account that is used for their save file on Heroes. If you buy the Switch game digitally, it will automatically be registered; physical buyers will need to insert the game card and manually register it on their system (you'll have until 29th June 2020 to register your copy).
From there, players will need to visit the Present List in the mobile game and tap on Byleth to accept him. If you need any help with any of the stages mentioned or would like more details, Nintendo has shared complete instructions on how to perform each step right here.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses launches on 26th July. Are you planning on picking it up?

On the one hand, if he's OP then locking him behind a $60 paywall is pretty unfair to the free to play gamers. This kind of marketing can be harmful to the game's community.
That being said, I'm already buying this game so GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMMIE AND MAKE HIM SUPER STRONG SO I CAN F#@& YOUR SURTR+10
FEH is dead.
Started off strong - by the second year it was just non stop power creep and inordinate amounts of busy work.
Why are people complaining about this, when it's pretty easy to deduce that most FEH players will be picking up Three Houses anyway? He's just a nice bonus! Also, if you don't play FEH, you have NO right to complain about this whatsoever BTW.
Haaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
.......
No thanks, you may keep your mobile crud.
@Desrever The bottom of the in game announcement says you’ll be able to get Byleth through summoning in late July.
This is a meh promotion. I'd almost rather Fire Emblem clothes for Animal Crossing Pocket Camp instead, I play that game a lot more than FE Heroes now. I actually can't remember the last time I opened up Heroes.
I have the special edition pre ordered already but that’s cool that the deadline is my birthday
It would be cool if they had new amiibos or something for the game.
Too bad it isn't by way of a code, I'd have given mine to a FEH player. Won't play that cursed game myself though, it shares no traits other than name with the Fire Emblem franchise.
Sweet! Will be getting.
I really wish I cared for Fire Emblem.
Misread this as Fire Emblem Warriors and got excited.
niiiiicccce, but l bet it will take 8,000 orbs on trying to get him.
If I still played FE Heroes this would be pretty cool. But I swore off the game because I don't have the self control to resist spending money if I actually play.
@alpha5099 Same. lol
@SacredFlare229 Aha! So it is. We'll, that's good news I suppose. To be honest, I have enough high tier sword infantry units that get ignored as it is. But I'm not complaining
@alpha5099 Let's be real, considering FE Warriors, he'd probably be a clone of another character anyways.
@shoeses Eh, I didn't really mind the clones, to be honest, at least for the ones where it was just two characters--there needed to be more archer and pegasus playstyles. FEW is my second favorite game for the Switch, so I would absolutely welcome an excuse to play it some more.
I pray to Mother Earth that they will find a new voice actor. Chris Niosi? He and Vic need to be hauled off and sent to alt right Nazi-land to rot. this monstrous lifelong republican is just another drop in the bucket of Hetropatriarchial abuse, oppression and white privilege.
DO BETTER NINTENDO
@Smashfan502 Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Most played game, favorite game on the Switch. Favorite game of the decade.
