The Legends Of Heroes: Trails Of Cold Steel Launches On December 22 In North America

XSEED Games has announced that The Legends Of Heroes: Trails Of Cold Steel will be released for the PS Vita and PS3 in North America on December 22, 2015 as a standard edition and also as a Limited Lionheart Edition containing an art book with over 100 pages and a 1.5″ emblem pin representing the Erebonian Empire.

The Legends Of Heroes: Trails Of Cold Steel builds on Nihon Falcom’s acclaimed The Legend of Heroes franchise, known in Japan as Sen no Kiseki, by improving on the series’ formula while delivering the same sort of expertly told narrative series fans have come to expect.

Taking place on the same continent as fan-favorite Trails in the Sky, Trails of Cold Steel is the first game in the series to explore Erebonian soil, giving players a chance to delve deep into the inner political conflicts of this oft-mentioned and powerful empire.

In the game, players take on the role of specially-selected elite military students at a time of great turmoil, enjoying school life and bonding with fellow students to earn new abilities in battle, then utilizing those abilities via speedy, tactical turn-based combat with the newly-developed “ARCUS” system.

The standalone story also delves into the expansive lore that has become synonymous with the series. Best of all, the epic storyline can be unraveled with Cross-Save functionality between the game’s PS Vita and PS3 editions, allowing players to play at home or on the go.
