I am excited to announce the release of FIRE EMBLEM: SACRED HEROES, a romhack of Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones for the GBA! This romhack replaces the playable cast with 40 characters from the Fire Emblem: Heroes mobile game. It attempts to blend the playstyles of the GBA FE games with that of newer games (and, naturally, Heroes in particular) by adding in a slew of new features.
Please note that this patch does NOT change the majority of the story content. Any dialogue before or after a chapter will remain unchanged. Most dialogue within a chapter (such as recruitment conversations, boss dialogues, death quotes, or random talk events) have been altered.
Download the patch here!
Changes include:
40 playable characters
New classes
New items
25 new support chains
Str/Mag separated and introduction of mixed physical & magical classes
Skills (skill system patch credits: Circleseverywhere Monkeybard & Black Mage for most of the skill icons; Blaze for Stances skill icons. Tequila, Rossendale, StanH, Leonarth, Teraspark, sd9k, Kao, blademaster, Snakey1 for skills. Primefusion for the test map.)
And more!
As of present (11/1/25), this romhack is MOSTLY finished. The only truly unfinished things are supports. The finished supports are listed in the documentation, but more supports listings are present in the game with placeholder text. I do intend to come back and finish them at a later date, but for now, I'm releasing what I have done. Obviously, you will need to procure your own rom of Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones to apply this patch to.
All new assets are taken from the Fire Emblem GBA Asset Repository, witch the exception of a handful of original item icons. A FULL LIST OF CREDITS IS AVAILABLE ALONGSIDE THE PATCH.
