From the review, "Trails in the Sky follows Estelle and Joshua Bright on their journey to join the Bracer Guild, a sort of odd-job mercenary/unofficial police force their father happens to be near the top of the food chain of. In true JRPG fashion, a bunch of horrible things happen that are also all tied together somehow, and it’s up to the heroes to do something about it. But they can’t until they’re strong enough, so weaved within the greater picture is a series of almost episodic chapters telling stories that are relevant, but also stand out on their own."
While yesterday Nihon Falcom announced the latest The Legend of Heroes title for Japan, during their investor Q&A it was revealed that the company plans to re-release The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky for modern platforms - though they don't quite know what form such a re-release might take.
If they released a physical collection of the original Trails of Sky, I would get it in a heartbeat.
Steam's annual Summer Sale is here again, and here's a couple of great deals for fans of Japanese games who aren't sure what to get!

"I’m a big JRPG fan, so it was a matter of time before I learned of Trails of Cold Steel and Trails in the Sky. A few days ago I finally completed Trails in the Sky Series and I’m glad to announce it got me super excited to continue through Cold Steel.
As the title suggests, this review will only cover Trails in the Sky, which is only the first 3 games of a 9 game franchise, with another game coming out 2023."
