The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon

NIS America has announced a delay for The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon alongside another console version for the game.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon will forgo its original fall 2025 western release for one sometime in January 2026.

A Nintendo Switch 2 port was also announced alongside the previously announced versions on Windows PC (via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store), Switch, PS4, and PS5.

Preorders are now available for a Limited Edition of the game (pictured above) for the new Switch 2 version – priced at $109.99 and on a Game-Key Card (a download, the full game is not on the cartridge), as well as the Switch, PS4, and PS5 versions for $99.99 (which include the full game on the physical copy).

“I’m excited to announce that the latest entry in Nihon Falcom’s Trails series, The Legend of Heroes: Trails beyond the Horizon, will also be released on Nintendo Switch 2,” Nihon Falcom President Toshihiro Kondo said in a press release. “With the power of the Nintendo Switch 2, we expect players to have an even more enjoyable experience. In fact, this will mark the debut of the Trails series on the Nintendo Switch 2, and I personally have high expectations for it. Please continue to look forward to the release!”

The 20th anniversary release in the Trails franchise has been available for PC (via Steam), PS4, and PS5 in Japan and southeast Asia.

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:

Witness the beginning of the end

Van Arkride and the members of Arkride Solutions are back, and this time the future of the entire Zemurian continent is at stake! The people of Zemuria await the launch of humanity’s first foray into space with bated breath. A sudden invitation from Marduk to cooperate in a high-tech training exercise sets Van, Ashen Chevalier Rean Schwarzer, and Father Kevin Graham on a collision course with the secrets at the very core of Zemuria.

Their paths may diverge, but the ultimate question remains the same: Just what lies beyond the edge of the horizon?

Features

  • All Trails Lead Here – Paths from across Zemuria intertwine with higher stakes than ever before as the Trails series enters its final chapter!
  • Gameplay, Evolved – New gameplay mechanics such as Shard Commands, Awakening, and the time-freezing Z.O.C. give you an unprecedented amount of options in both Field and Command Battles!
  • Dream Teams – Gather allies from all over Calvard and beyond and put a stop to Ouroboros’ machinations in the Grim Garten, a dungeon that you can take on with your own custom party!
