In the latest financial report from Falcom, the company confirmed that the next entry in the Trails series will be released in the next fiscal year, by the end of September 2027.
It’s been an unusually long wait for this series, with Trails Beyond the Horizon having been released in Japan in 2024.
A potentially three-year wait between new entries is the longest gap the series has had since the time between Cold Steel II and III, which was also three years.
Of course, since they released the Trails in the Sky remakes after Horizon, it hasn’t been a complete break for the series itself.
I took advantage of this extra-long gap to catch up on the series, and… okay, no. I haven’t played any Trails this year at all. I intended to start the next game after finishing The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy, and I’m still working on that. And that’s currently on hold for Fire Emblem, and…
But hey! There’s still a lot of time left. I probably won’t be caught up on the series by the time Horizon’s sequel comes out, but I might still make it before the next arc (maybe).
What about you? Are you champing at the bit for the sequel to Trails Beyond the Horizon, or are you still catching up on the series like me?
