Fire Emblem Heroes is the most popular of Nintendo's mobile games, and it's not hard to understand why. The game is constantly updated with Fire Emblem characters new and old, providing plenty for its players. With the conclusion of the Choose Your Legends: Round 5 event, players now have an idea of who the next characters added will be.

Choose Your Legends is an annual contest held for Fire Emblem Heroes, meant to determine the most popular units from across the series. The two top voted male and female characters are guaranteed to get special Brave Hero units, ensuring they will be added to the game with brand new artwork. Past winners include Lyn, Ike, Lucina, and Roy for the game's first event, and Dimitri, Edelgard, Claude, and Lysithea for the previous Choose Your Legends event.

The winners of this year's Choose Your Legends event are Gatekeeper, Marianne, Marth, and Eirika. Gatekeeper and Marianne come from the recent Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Marth is from the original Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light, and Eirika comes from Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. Out of these characters, Gatekeeper had the most votes by far, clocking in at 72,267 total.

The most exciting prospect of this event each year is the brand new artwork and costumes each winner will receive. Marth will likely get a look based off of his original artwork for the recently re-released Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light. Eirika will likely get similar treatment, while Gatekeeper and Marianne will likely get their standard looks, as this is their Heroes debut. These new units likely won't release for a few months, but now fans of each character have something exciting to look forward to.

Gatekeeper may seem like an odd choice to those who missed the voting process. He is a relatively minor non-playable character in Three Houses, yet he won above many series protagonists, including Byleth from the very same game. Some fans believe players only voted for Gatekeeper as a joke, while others genuinely enjoyed the character's friendly attitude despite his minor role. Either way, he will soon be making his playable debut in Fire Emblem Heroes.
