Today, NISAmerica and Nihon Falcom released a demo for the upcoming RPG in their long running The Legend of Heroes series, Trails Through Daybreak.
In the demo, players will be able to:
- Play through the prologue on Switch and through Chapter One on PlayStation
- Switch between real-time and turn-based combat
- Wield magical Arts and unique Crafts
- Meet key characters like Van Arkride, a spriggan or an underground professional that accepts work from any client, and Agnés Claudel, a first year student at the prestigious Aramis Academy who goes to Van with a unique request.
Save data will transfer to the full version when it releases on July 5. PlayStation 4 demo save data is compatible with the PlayStation 5 version of the full game.
In the aftermath of a brief war, Calvard is enjoying unprecedented economic prosperity. However, the public grows uncertain as the number of immigrants increases and questionable political reform runs rampant. Follow the spriggan Van Arkride on a unique request that will prove more than he bargained for. Will the nation fall into chaos?
The Story So Far…
The spriggan’s life is but one of many professions that has emerged from the Calvard Republic. Be it playing detective, negotiator, or bounty hunter, Van Arkride takes on the kind of work that legitimate sources can’t accept. Whether it’s best left out of the public eye or rooted in the dark corners of the underworld, almost any job is open for consideration.
The year is S.1208. A prim-and-proper young lady dressed in the uniform of an esteemed academy visits a rundown multi-tenant building in the Old Town district of Edith, the nation’s capital. With a most dignified gaze, she looks upon the plaque of the door before her. It reads: ‘ARKRIDE Solutions Office: Complicated Matters Only.’
Steeling herself, she knocks on the door three times.
“First thing in the morning…?” a relaxed yet surprisingly young voice grumbles with a yawn.
From the moment he opens the door to greet her, a new tale begins.
