Falcom confirmed on November 11, 2026 that a sequel to The Legend of Heroes: Trails beyond the Horizon will launch in its fiscal year ending September 2027, and Japanese outlets report it is described as the final chapter of the Kai no Kiseki arc. Time to compare where everyone is in this huge saga.

The facts in short:
- Sequel announced in Falcom's annual earnings report of November 11, 2026, for the fiscal year October 2026 to September 2027 (Japan). No title, platforms or Western date yet.
- It is Falcom's only new game planned that year, alongside several ports.
- Trails beyond the Horizon came out in Japan on September 26, 2024, and in the West on January 15, 2026 (Switch 2, Switch, PS5, PS4, PC). Steam lists English and Japanese only, no French.
- No third Trails in the Sky remake appears in the report (4Gamer).
Questions for players:
- Where are you in the series: Sky, Crossbell, Cold Steel, Daybreak, or already done with Trails beyond the Horizon?
- Historically the English versions arrive more than a year after Japan: will you wait, import the Japanese/Asian version, or avoid spoilers until then?
- A "final chapter" for this arc: which characters or mysteries do you want resolved?
- Would you rather Falcom had prioritized a Trails in the Sky the 3rd remake?
