Here we can see that the games have had relatively decent sales across the entire series, with Fire Emblem: Three Houses taking the top spot at nearly 4 million sales since it was released in 2019. Fire Emblem Engage is the most recent release at the time of writing and has not had as good of a performance as Nintendo and the community expected, as many players have tried to love the game but have not been able to, for one reason or another.

Fire Emblem Heroes has generated over $1 billion in revenue.

• Fire Emblem was Nintendo’s first mobile game to cross this milestone.
• The milestone was crossed in June 2022.
• Even though the game has all of that revenue, it is in fourth place when it comes to Nintendo’s mobile games in terms of total downloads.
• Fire Emblem has 17.8 million total downloads, whereas the top-downloaded Nintendo mobile game was Super Mario, at 310.7 million downloads.
• 54% of total player spending in Fire Emblem Heroes was in Japan.
• 32.4% of total player spending in Fire Emblem Heroes was in the United States.
• The total number of downloads is split evenly between the Play Store and App Store.

This is perhaps the most notable aspect of the Fire Emblem series, at least where the mobile game Heroes is concerned. While the game has “only” been downloaded 17 million times, it has generated more revenue than a majority of the mobile games available on both the Play Store and the App Store.
