Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Latest News
⚫︎ Falcom officially released the trailer for Trails in the Sky the 2nd Chapter on December 18, 2025. The remake is scheduled for a simultaneous worldwide release in Fall 2026.
⚫︎ Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter was teased through a trailer in Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, ahead of its official announcement from Falcom.
Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Overview
Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter is the upcoming remake of the original 2006 role-playing game developed by Nihon Falcom. The game is scheduled for a simultaneous release in Fall 2026 for PC, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, and Nintendo Switch. The project is a modern rebuild of The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC, and Falcom has been public about its plans following the release of the first remake earlier in 2025.
The game returns players to the Liberl Kingdom and continues the story that follows Estelle and her companions as they deal with the fallout of events from the previous entry and search for answers tied to Joshua’s disappearance. The original SC plot centers on Estelle’s search for Joshua, the appearance of agents connected to Ouroboros, and a series of revelations that raise the stakes across the continent
The remake preserves the series’ turn-based combat roots but layers in modern tweaks seen in the first remake. Much like the remake of Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, it is also likely to recreate the Liberl Kingdom in full 3D with updated visuals and character models.

Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Gameplay
Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter maintains a turn-based tactical combat system typical of the modern Trails subseries, where encounters transition from an overworld or field map into a grid-oriented battle screen. In battle, players issue commands to a party of up to four characters per encounter, selecting from physical attacks, Crafts (unique character abilities that cost Craft Points), and Arts (magic drawn from the customizable orbment system).
Character progression is tied to experience gained from battles and quests, which unlocks new abilities and quartz slots. Quality-of-life improvements seen in the remake of the first chapter are anticipated to extend into the second
