NIS America released a new video ahead of the release of Nihon Falcom’s The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon later this month. The new video provides a story recap of the previous title in the series, The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak II. Trails Beyond the Horizon sees Van Arkride, protagonist of Trails through Daybreak and Trails through Daybreak II, return as one of three main protagonists alongside Trails from Cold Steel’s protagonist Rean Schwarzer and Trails in the Sky the 3rd’s Kevin Graham.
