Bound Hero Battle (Japanese: 絆英雄戦 Bound Hero Battle) is a game mode in Fire Emblem Heroes, and one of a number of types of the game's Special Maps. A Bound Hero Battle allows players to challenge a difficult team on a special map available for a limited period of time with the potential to win Orbs. The premise of Bound Hero Battles are similar to that of Grand Hero Battles, except that there are two headliner characters per battle and players cannot win characters as prizes. As alluded to by the name "Bound Hero Battle", the headliner characters of each battle share a close bond with each other in their game of origin, such as Ephraim and Eirika being twin siblings, or Cecilia and Lilina being teacher and student respectively.

Bound Hero Battles offer three difficulties—Normal, Hard, and Infernal—each offering a reward to players that clear them; Normal difficulty rewards players with two Orbs, Hard with three, and Infernal four. All Bound Hero Battles to date have had a summoning event associated with their first runs.

In addition to the first-run Bound Hero Battles, past Bound Hero Battles are also occasionally rerun in order to allow players who haven't yet taken them on a chance to do so; rerun Bound Hero Battles also offer additional quests with tasks that allow players to win additional Orbs.
