Popular Post Venocide Posted April 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) It being April fools, I wasn't sure whether to post this or not but it seems legit and would be a weird April fools joke anyway. https://www.gameinformer.com/news/2020/03/31/the-legend-of-heroes-trails-of-cold-steel-iv-announced-for-north-america Quote The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV is finally hitting our shores, and we got all the first details on what you can expect along with an announcement trailer and screenshots. Nihon Falcom’s Trails of Cold Steel series has made a name for itself with its detailed world, colorful characters, and impressive turn-based combat. For three entries, we’ve followed protagonist Rean Schwarzer as he’s gone from a student to a professor amid plenty of political turmoil and shocking revelations. This is the final entry in the Trails of Cold Steel arc, and due to events in the previous entry, will not have its standard student-life setting. “This title holds an important place as the end of the Cold Steel series and the mid-point of an overall story that began with Trails in the Sky,” explains Nihon Falcom president and producer Toshihiro Kondo. “We’ve hinted at various mysteries since Trails in the Sky and all of those related to the Erebonian Empire will be revealed here.” Kondo said this game features the largest cast and the most quests in the series' history. For more details on the game, you can read our short Q&A with Kondo, which goes into much more detail. Trails of Cold Steel IV hits the PS4 this fall, with a later release on Nintendo Switch and PC in 2021. It will have a “day one” edition called the Frontline edition (pictured below) and a limited edition.

dermarx Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Nice, also there is a nice special Edition. Preorder it ASAP (If this is some kind of April Fools joke, I'll be soooo pissed) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undead Wolf Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) I do question the logic of announcing something on April Fools Day because we're taught to think everything is bullshit. But yeah, this seems to be legit. I'm glad we don't have to wait very long to see the end of the saga here in the west because CS3 ends on a pretty big cliffhanger. I will pre-order the collector's edition as soon as I see it pop up on NISA's European store. Edited April 1, 2020 by Undead Wolf 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majob Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Wew, I bought the Japanese version a while ago simply because I didn't think I could wait for however long it would take for the western release so this a great news. Hopefully they'll localize Zero and Blue at some point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlchemistWer Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I hope see soon Zero and Ao in english on PS4 and finally have almost all Eiyu densetsu games available until now in english. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokusha Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Perhaps they chose today for their announcement because the Japanese fiscal year starts on 1st April? I remember several cases in the past where a Japanese or Japan-adjacent company announced something on the first, only to be met with "haha, yeah, right" responses at first. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladynadiad Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Honestly I had forgotten about April Fool's until just now, but first thing I saw was the announcement of preorders and I sure put mine in. Take my money, I already know this game is awesome since I played it in Japanese. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToaElnida Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I just have to finish my nightmare run from the Trails of Cold Steel III and I will be able to enjoy this new (and regretfully last) game. I was a little bit suspicious at first being it April's Fools, but I want to believe and pre-order it now =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesmaBR Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Would be a messed up April Fools joke if that's the case 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkdevivo Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 where's @hasegawa2010 when you need him? Are you going to do this guide? 95% of psnprofiles' ToCS players are waiting for you lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SelectiveGamer Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I've been hearing a lot about these games recently and they've been recommended to me recently. I've been holding back because I've heard the 3rd game ends on a cliffhanger and I don't like those. I don't know if that's true or not so I was going to wait for this before I make any decisions. I suppose I could still play 1 & 2 though. I have been told it's similar to Persona. Sort of. Without Personas though obviously. lol. If you wish... you may try to convince me to get these games further. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesRockefeller Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Great news! I just recently finished ToCS 2 and I'm currently playing the excellent fan translation of Trails from Zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadiantFlamberge Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I almost didn't believe this because today is April Fool's... it sounded so good I figured it would be false. Glad it's true. Right now I'm at chapter 3 of ToCS III. Now I am wondering what sort of LE this will have, like ToCS III's Thors Academy Edition with the Einhel Keep box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armored_Oso66 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 This is great news. Just got done with my preorder. Although I was kind of hoping for the LE to come with some sort of box set to house all of the steel book cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only skimmed the article so sorry if i missed. Here you are: the European LE. According to Nisa, it should be announced today, and it looks like exactly the NA version. Now this is a very good April fools' day, there should be more like this. Please, now you should annouce Ys IX! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
