This endgame segment of Trails of Cold Steel 2 served as a glimpse into just how much more Trails has to offer beyond the Cold Steel games.
#TRAILS LEGEND OF HEROES LORE SERIES#
players, Lloyd and Rixia were unknowns, but the Trails series had two prior games focusing on Crossbell that introduced these heroes, both of which are currently being localized. This was a departure from the rest of the game, which featured Rean Schwarzer and the rest of Class 7, citizens of the Erebonian Empire. Players who completed Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel 2 experienced a section of gameplay where they controlled new characters, Lloyd Bannings and Rixia Mao, in the city-state of Crossbell. hack games share the same setting, and the Xenosaga trilogy represents an earlier attempt at a serialized JRPG story, Trails has outdone these series, and others, as it is ten games in, and its story is only about halfway done.
There are some exceptions, with shared world lore in Dragon Quest’s Zenithia Trilogy, or direct sequels like Final Fantasy 10-2, but the Trails series’ focus on advancing a story in a shared world, with intricate lore, complex politics, and well-developed nations and factions, represents a different approach. Popular JRPG franchises like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest have numerous mainline entries and spin-off games, but most of these offer self-contained stories in different settings. Role-playing games are known for their expansive, epic stories, but the Legend of Heroes: Trails games have distinguished themselves with the longest-running, ongoing story, of any JRPG series.
