The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II Gets Western Release in 2025

NIS America has announced the western release of The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II will be coming in early 2025. The game will be available on PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG. Currently, there is no official release date.

Check out the announcement trailer below.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II Traditional Chinese and Korean versions will be released simultaneously on August 29, 2024.

The sequel continues the story of Van Arkride. Following the collapse of the Almata mafia organization, the peace in the Calvard Republic is disrupted by a series of enigmatic murders involving a crimson beast. This turmoil draws in various factions, both lawful and criminal, as Van embarks on an investigation to discover the truth behind the murders and the motives of those involved​.

List of features:

• Cross Charge
  If you manage to Perfect Dodge an enemy’s attack during a field battle, the Cross Charge icon will appear! Pushing the correct button while the icon is on-screen will swap in another party member, who will simultaneously execute a charge attack on your foe! As a bonus, the party member that you swap in will have enhanced attack power for a period of time.
• EX Chains
  EX Chains can be activated by fulfilling specific conditions during command battles. Once these conditions have been met, using a craft or normal attack against a stunned enemy will automatically activate an EX Chain! This allows party members with SCLM activated to launch a simultaneous attack that will also impact nearby enemies, dealing massive damage.
• Choose Your Chapters
  Van and his collaborators will not always travel together during the events of Trails through Daybreak II. At times, some of the group may split off in order to take care of tasks in different areas of Calvard concurrently. Because of this, each act contains multiple chapters you can play in any order. Progress the story in the order you choose! Each chapter features a different cast of characters as we see their side of the act’s story play out.
  Once you’ve completed your chosen chapter, the next one will start up automatically.
• Unique Missions
  Certain chapters will feature missions that utilize the unique skillsets of the characters in that chapter’s party. For example, directly controlling the holo core AI, Mare, to hack the orbal network, or using Swin to silently tail a suspicious individual.

Pre-order is available now for the limited edition for PS5, PS4 and Switch.

Contents of the limited edition include:

• The Collector’s Box
• Art Book
• Art Card Set
• Digipak Original Soundtrack
• Steelbook
• Atlas of Calvard
