I’ve played Cold Steel 1 and 2 and loved them so much I had to stop myself from playing 3 and went back to Sky FC and SC which I’ve just finished this month. Both incredible. Will start Sky the 3rd soon and then journey into Crossbell before reuniting with Class VII in CS 3 and 4. Almost topples Final Fantasy series for me, the writing is that good. Although FF (for me) has so much nostalgia it will probably always remain king.
@Nem Why is that out of interest? I’ve just finished Trails in the Sky FC (75 hours) and Trails in the Sky SC (111 hours) and they were two of the best RPGs I have ever played in my life.
@Alexface oh you mean like a release on consoles. Yea would be nice. The originals will run on really old laptops even so an expensive gaming PC isn’t required.
I tweeted the devs asking if this game was gonna have PS5 Pro support and they confirmed it would but it still doesn’t! I have played and completed the campaign but they straight up lied.
I have the Walmart Icon Blue controller which is this new version. Haven’t really noticed a difference in battery but I always put the controller on the official dock charger once I’m done anyways. Also I have 8 controllers in total and over the last 5 years I have never had stick drift on PS5. I’ve only ever had it twice on my Switch.
@Jayslow Ah I did enjoy the chest messages but I think they were originally brought over from a fan translation so maybe that’s why they’re not in the remake, and Cold Steel etc don’t have them do they?
Preordered this and looking forward to playing it one day. 20+ hours into the original Sky SC at the moment, glad I’m experiencing the originals as they were and then be able to play the remakes in a year or two.
I’ve just finished FC at the weekend and going to start SC today. I’d normally have a break after such a big RPG, but I can’t put these games down lol!
I’m 40 hours into Sky FC on PC and absolutely loving it. Will probably play this in a year or two but it’s a day one buy and nice to know it’s there when I’m ready.
I’ve completed Cold Steel 1 and 2 and have just started Trails in the Sky FC. I’ll play the remake but thought the original trilogy deserved a playthrough as well.
It’s worth noting that the fan English dub for FC “Trails in the Dub” is actually very good as well.
I used to be a beta tester back in the PS2 and PS3 era so be nice to get back in. It was mostly multiplayer betas back then so I’d expect the same here.

Re: Trails beyond the Horizon (PS5) - Trails Takes an Impressive Step Towards the End
@Nem ah fair enough. I take it you didn’t grow up in the 90s, it’s all we had back then lol

Re: Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Set to Be One of Falcom's Greatest Games in Fall 2026
@Alexface Is that needed? You can play the originals on Steam upto 4K 120 and using tools like Reshade effectively remasters the game anyway.
Re: Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Set to Be One of Falcom's Greatest Games in Fall 2026
I’m currently 65 hours into Trails SC on PC so cannot wait for this remake! I hope Sky the Third comes out in 2027.

Re: It's Still Surreal to See Classic RPG Trails in the Sky Completely Remade in 3D
I’ve completed Cold Steel 1 and 2 and have just started Trails in the Sky FC. I’ll play the remake but thought the original trilogy deserved a playthrough as well.
It’s worth noting that the fan English dub for FC “Trails in the Dub” is actually very good as well.
