It’s official! NIS America have announced that The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II will be coming West in early 2025 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG. Check out the announcement trailer below. NIS America may have been forced to make this announcement after a recent mistake by PlayStation led to translated title images being visible to Japanese players with their PlayStation store language set to English.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II Details from the Official Website:

As part two of the Calvard arc, The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II improves upon the innovations of the previous game in numerous ways! The seamless transition between field battles and command battles and the LGC alignment system make for an RPG experience like none other!

Not only that, but The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II features a wealth of exciting new content that can only be found in the Calvard Republic!

Known in Japan as The Legend of Heroes: Kuro no Kiseki Ⅱ -CRIMSON SiN, Daybreak II has been available in that territory since September 2022. With this announcement however, the English speaking market stands on the precipice of series parity with Japan, something Western fans of the popular series have long wanted.

More recently, the preceding title in the series, The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak, released on July 5th, and has so far been well received. RPGFan review powerhouse Audra Bowling had almost nothing negative to say in her recent review, awarding Daybreak the much coveted RPGFan Editor’s Choice.

You can pre-order a special limited edition of The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II exclusively from the NIS America online store. Seen below, this edition includes the following items for $99.99 USD:

  • The game in a special Collector’s Box
  • Art Book

Claton fell in love with the genre whilst watching his childhood friend spam GF summons in FF VIII; thinking "wow these graphics are just like real life. Is this really a game"? He’s been chasing that feeling of awe and wonder ever since. Who knows? Maybe he’ll find it right here with RPGFan. When he’s not writing for RPGFan, you’ll find him nonchalantly leaning against the ballroom wall being the “best looking guy here.” …whatever.
