Fire Emblem Heroes is about to get a little help from some familiar faces. The upcoming Seeds of Fodlan banner will add four new heroes to the roster, all hailing from the classrooms of Garreg Mach monastery. Familiar faces Marianne, Dedue, Ingrid, and Linhardt from the popular Fire Emblem: Three Houses will join the game on March 5.
All four of the characters are coming in from the "student" era of Three Houses' campaign. This means that they will be in the game wearing their standard Garreg Mach uniforms. They will look different to the other Three Houses characters that are currently in the roster as they all range from different points in time. You can check out the announcement trailer below to get a glimpse at the new heroes in action;
