What to Expect in The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak?
Following the aftermath of a brief war in the year S. 1208, Calvard is enjoying a period of unprecedented economic prosperity. But these good times often don’t last as the public is growing suspicious as the number of immigrants increases and questionable political reform runs rampant. This brings us to the spriggan Van Akrike, who takes on a unique request that may be more than he bargained for.
For a spriggan’s life is one of the many professions that has risen in the Calvard Republic. Van Akrike makes a living by taking on any job that leigitimate sources won’t normally touch, playing Van Akirde in positions to play detective, negotiator or bounty hunter. Whether it’s simply best left out of the public eye or rooted in the dark corners of the underworld, any job is worth considering.
The sign above Van Akrit’s office states ARKRIDE Solutions Office: Complicated Matters Only. The sign above the office door serves as beacon for trouble, almost beckoning it in. Of course, if the game dealt with mundane jobs it wouldn’t be very exciting.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak is scheduled for a July 5 release for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Switch.
