During the August 27, 2024 Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase, some exciting news was revealed for fans of Nihon Falcom’s Trails series. The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 1st, a full 3D remake of the first game in the long-running Trails series, has been announced. The game is currently confirmed for Nintendo Switch.
While the remake only received a couple seconds of screen time in the Nintendo of America Direct, the Japanese Nintendo Direct showcased an almost minute long trailer for the game. You can check out that trailer below. Based on the trailer, it appears the remake will utilize a battle system similar to the one used in Trails through Daybreak.
