The following will introduce the new features and changes in the Ver. 7.0.0 update.
■ Book VII of the main story begins
Starting , Book VII of the main story will open.
The Order of Heroes is battling alongside the summoner against Gullveig, the golden seer who has the power to manipulate time, and they fall in the conflict... Alfonse and his companions take the hand of Seiðr, a goddess of Vanaheimr, the realm of light, in order to prevent this vision of the future from coming to pass.
Book VII plays out across the past, present, and future, so the order of the chapters is designed to match the timelines of each act. Chapters 13 and 5 of Book VII will be released with Ver. 7.0.0, but you can enjoy the story in the order it is released, as normal.
5★ Mythic Hero Seiðr: Goddess of Hope will join your barracks if you clear Part 5 of Chapter 13 of Book VII.
Be sure to watch the Book VII Opening Movie, woven together by the beautiful light Seiðr radiates and Gullveig's unsettling golden light! You can jump right into the story of Book VII even if you haven't completed Books I through VI.
And to celebrate the beginning of Book VII, starting , we will be holding the Book VII Begins: Seiðr and More summoning event and a Book VII Begins Celebration!
In this New Heroes summoning event, Seiðr: Goddess of Hope is available as a part of the 5★ focus category along with New Heroes from Fire Emblem Fates.
Note: Because Seiðr: Goddess of Hope is a Mythic Hero, she does not appear in normal summoning events. The next time she is scheduled to appear in a summoning event is this month's Legendary Hero summoning event.
You can make two copies of 5★ Hero Kiragi: Upbeat Archer your ally by completing quests, and there will be Log-In Bonuses from which you can get Dragonflowers and more as part of the Book VII Begins celebratory events!
■ You can make Heroes you met in Binding Worlds your allies!
You can now make Heroes with whom you have swapped in Binding Worlds your allies as Forma!
You can use the new 
Otherworld Bond item and make a Hero with whom you swapped your ally.
The Hero will become your ally as a Forma when you consume an Otherworld Bond.
○ What is inherited from the original Hero
・ The skills the original Hero had equipped will be equipped as-is to the Hero when they become your ally. Also, they will have the skills they would ordinarily possess when summoned as a 5★ Hero. On top of that, the skills that the Hero in question can learn at 5★ will be available for the Forma to learn by consuming SP.
・ Traits will also be inherited as-is from the original Hero; however, Ascended Assets will not.
○ Things that are not impacted by the original Hero's status
・ All Heroes will join your barracks as level 40 5★ Heroes at all times.
・ They will join your barracks with the maximum amount of bonuses from Dragonflowers available at the time they join your barracks.
・ Merges are not inherited.
・ Ascended Assets are not inherited.
・ You will not receive a blessing even if you make a Legendary or Mythic Hero your ally.
・ Blessings, Sacred Seals, and accessories will not be equipped.
・ Resplendent Attire will not be inherited. Your settings for Resplendent Attire will be applied at all times.
Also, in Binding Worlds you can make a Hero your ally any time from when the event begins to 30 days after it ends!
With the addition of this feature the name of the Hero Records screen has been changed to Recruit Forma in Ver. 7.0.0.
・ You can only make Heroes from Ver. 4.11.0 or earlier your allies.
・ You cannot make Alfonse: Prince of Askr, Sharena: Princess of Askr, or Anna: Commander your allies as Forma.
・ You cannot have other Heroes inherit skills from your Forma.
・ You cannot use the Forma as the source ally in a merge. (You can use a Hero as a source ally in a merge with a Forma.)
・ Two of the same Forma can be used in a merge. Also, Forma you made your ally from Hall of Forms and Binding Worlds can be used in a merge even if they joined your barracks from each of the different events.
・ You cannot make Heroes from the Binding Worlds events that were held from Ver. 6.8.0 to Ver. 6.10.0 your allies.
・ The status of the Forma that joins your barracks or appears in your Recruit Forma screen is based on the status of the Hero when you swapped with them, and changes made to their skills or traits by the original Hero's original owner after you swapped with them do not impact them, since the Hero is registered at the time the swap was performed.
You can see the name of the original owner of the Hero the Forma originated from in the Forma's detailed stats screen.
You can also set the player name not to display. If you want to set it not to display their name, turn Display Usernames with Forma Units off in the Settings menu.
Even if you set it to on, your friends or other players cannot see it.
Also, you cannot see if the Heroes you have dispatched have joined someone else's barracks as a Forma.
Otherworld Bonds are available from Otherworld Bond Packs as bonuses. Please see the shop while the pack is available for purchase for the price.
・ Be aware that Otherworld Bonds cannot be transferred between different operating systems.
The Binding Worlds for Ver. 7.0.0 will be held from to , and the period you can make Heroes from the event your ally is scheduled to be from to
Sales of Otherworld Bond Packs will begin at the same time the event does.
