Few titles exist that feature one of the best combat systems ever created with a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Trails of Cold Steel IV is quite frankly one of the best RPGs I have ever played, and I cannot wait to see what the future of the franchise has in store.

It's so good I even forgive the developer for not giving Alisa the leading role like she deserved. And I really love Alisa. The sense of scale and escalation is powerful, too.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV is the dramatic conclusion to a grand epic that’s been almost a decade in the making. It’s another chance to spend time with a bunch of characters that have become like family across three prior games, and the culmination of a nuanced exploration of the many faces of war. Most of all, it’s the sort of payoff that only hundreds of hours of meticulous, thoughtful worldbuilding can lead up to. The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV is developed by Nihon Falcom and published by NIS America.

Hey Poor Player
Oct 27, 2020
Nihon Falcom’s Trails of Cold Steel proudly stands amongst the few which can truly be considered to be at the pinnacle of the modern-day, story-driven JRPG, and it was truly wonderful seeing the culmination of the series’ work within The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV. Although it’s sad saying goodbye to the members of Class VII—both new and old—I can at least smile knowing that their (presumably) final moments in the spotlight were just as amazing to play through as their first.
