On the heels of The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel III coming to Nintendo Switch this summer, NIS America also announced the popular RPG’s sequel. PlayStation 4 will be the first console to receive the game this fall while Nintendo Switch and PC users will have to wait until next year.
Trails of Cold Steel IV takes place shortly after the third installment in which the heroes of Class VII are up against the full might of the Empire as they try to prevent its path toward world domination. Furthermore, their instructor, the savior during the Erebonian Civil War, Rean Schwarzer, is nowhere to be found. Now, current and former Class VII students must work together to prevent their world’s total destruction.
Key Features include:
- The Ultimate Class Reunion – Boasting the largest roster in series history, heroes from all over seek to join the cause! The heroes of Class VII unite with Crossbell’s Special Support Section and even the heroes of Liberl.
- Battle Most Refined – New and returning systems join the already polished combat of The Legend of Heroes series, including the ability to summon giant mechs to the field for devastating attacks, engage in Auto Battle for more expedient combat and utilize Lost Arts, the most powerful Orbal magic capable of turning the tide in battle.
- Pursuits of the War Weary – In between epic battles, catch a breather with a number of mini-games including returning favorites like Vantage Master, and fishing and puzzle games as well as all-new pursuits like Poker, Blackjack and the Horror Coaster.
Look for The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV this fall on PS4 and next year on PC and Nintendo Switch.
