Nintendo / Intelligent SystemsYou know what? Maybe we’ve had enough of the blue-haired guys looking very similar to Fire Emblem. They have spent time in the spotlight and have all been invited to Smash. Do you know who doesn’t get enough recognition? Everyone’s favorite unnamed friend, the Gatekeeper.
His infinitely sunny disposition was always a welcome respite from the darkness of the battle in Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and his last victory in the poll voted by Fire Emblem Heroes 2021 players in “Choose Your Legends” is the proof that he finally gets the praise he deserves. Yes, Gatekeeper!
The Gatekeeper already has a lot of fans, including those who made him a playable character in Three Houses (and found that his Charm stats were the highest in the game). With statistics like that, how could you not love him?
Of course, that means it’s the fifth year in a row that Chrom, the protagonist of Fire Emblem: Awakening, has lost. He has lost against Ike, Hector, Alm and Dimitri in the past and now he has lost against a boy who can’t even get into battle. Sorry, Chrom, but you’re not so happy.
Survey winners Gatekeeper, Marth, Marianne and Eirika will be added to Fire Emblem Heroes with “Choose Your Legends special costumes.” Will we finally get to see the goalkeeper’s eyes? I guess we’ll find out.
