The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak Review

The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak reviewed by George Yang on PlayStation 5, also available on PlayStation 4, PC, and Nintendo Switch.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak is an exciting new start for the series. With an awesome new cast of characters joined by a handful of familiar faces, it’s a welcoming point to jump in fresh while also rewarding veteran players for returning. Daybreak’s updated hybrid battle system still has a few kinks to work out with its real-time elements, but enhanced movement options and other impressive tweaks make the turn-based aspects better than ever. Wrap that up in an engaging story full of political drama and a compelling new setting, and Daybreak is exactly what the Trails series needed to reach new heights.

Once again seeing a Trails/Kiseki game getting proper attention make me happy.

[Jojuiced]

I’m just happy to see the Trails series getting more recognition. Mixing turned based with real time combat is a pretty cool playstyle and judging by how the unlocalised sequel and the new Kai no Kiseki games look, it will only get better.

"how do you follow up 20 years of world building with a new setting and cast"
Take notes on what Disney is doing, and do the opposite

Trails is great. 8.0 is too low for the quality of this game.

No fishing minigame? I'd say that's a plus in my book.
