Incoming spoilers
So Falcom’scountdownforThe Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IVended on Wednesday, and they announced some juicy stuff. I think the most important one is that they addedThe End of Sagato the game’s title. In other words, they’re reminding people that this installment will mark the end of theTrailsseries’ “Erebonia Arc.”
Trails of Cold Steel IV -The End of Sagahits Japan in Fall 2018 for the PS4, and it’ll be larger than its predecessor. While we haven’t heard any word of the third installment going West, this should give me enough time to complete the originalTrails in the Skytrilogy.
As a heads-up, the following information about Falcom’s upcoming RPG contains spoilers. Some of them are related toTrails of Cold Steel IIIand the others involve characters from the series’ previous sagas. If you’re trying to play them without being spoiled, ensure you avoid the stuff after the jump.
You have been warned.
At the moment,Trails of Cold Steel IV’ssummary talks about the Great Twilight’s curse, and Rean losing control of himself. With the game’swebsitehaving the line, “The Demise, to Struggle Against It,” my guess is that it’ll start us off us in a hopeless scenario.
For the first order of business, Lloyd and Elie from the Crossbell duology will appear in the game. While we’re on the topic of comebacks, Renne fromTrails in the Sky SCandthe 3rdis showing up. If the stars align correctly, we might be in for a biggerTrailsreunion than the previous title.
The other images consist of Crow, along with Ouroboros member Duvalie and her comrades from the Stahlritter, the Steel Maiden’s knights. Then there’s one of Roselia, a character who appeared inTrails of Cold Steel III.
With Rean being chained up for his actions during the previous installment, I’m curious to see who’ll beTrails of Cold Steel IV’sprotagonist. Then there’s the mystery about the final Divine Knight, which gives us a lot to look forward to in the “Erebonia Arc’s” finale.
