Save the date on Valentine’s Day! Publisher NIS America and developer Nihon Falcom have announced that The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II is coming to the West on February 14th, 2025, for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG.

As some of you may already know, Kuro no Kiseki, also known as Trails Through Daybreak, was first launched in Japan in September 2021, followed by Kuro no Kiseki II in September 2022. It took until July 2024—almost three years—for the first game to receive its English localization.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II Overview

No longer threatened by the mafia organization Almata, the people of Calvard have returned to their peaceful lives. But one day, a shocking series of murders involving a mysterious crimson beast sets the wheels of fate in motion once again.

With chaos once again looming on the horizon, the spriggan Van Arkride receives an unexpected visitor, prompting his own investigation. Who is behind the murders, and what is their goal? The sands of time bring old and new faces together for this thrilling second installment in the Trails through Daybreak saga.
