    RPGamer: The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak Review

    Vive la République

    After seven large games covering the full tribulations of Crossbell and Erebonia, it was about time that Nihon Falcom's long-running The Legend of Heroes series injected some fresh blood. Fortunately, the developer has answered that call with aplomb, as The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak marks the start of the series' next arc with proof that it is as strong as ever. Offering an incredibly welcome refresh for the series with its story, cast, and gameplay, the game is a delightful way to re-enrapture existing fans while being an excellent opportunity for newcomers to get on board.

    Trails through Daybreak is set in Erebonia and Crossbell's eastern neighbour, the Republic of Calvard, a couple of years after Trails into Reverie. The events of recent times have led Calvard to continue an era of unbridled prosperity and progress into perhaps becoming the continent of Zemuria's leading superpower. However, there is still underlying strife with concerns that the good times may not last forever, political issues including racial tensions, and various factions vying to advance their own machinations.

    [...]

    The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak is an incredibly satisfying combination of familiarity and freshness in a rightfully much-loved series. There was a danger of things becoming stale, but Nihon Falcom has done its utmost to ensure its new main cast and setting are joined by enough adjustments to the series' other elements to make the game appealing to loyal fans and newcomers alike. Van Arkride steps up as perhaps the series' most entertaining protagonist so far, and with the strong backing of his supporting cast and new mechanics, the series has taken a hugely welcome step forward.

    Score: 4.5/5
