The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon Review [Capsule Computers]

Travis Bruno of Capsule Computers writes:

“It is hard to believe that there would be a time that not only would the Western releases of The Legend of Heroes franchise manage to catch up to the Japanese releases of this incredibly lengthy franchise, but that the games that helped kick it off would be getting remade at the very same time. A few months ago we reviewed the fresh remake of Nihon Falcoms Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter and now here we are, visiting the most recent release in a story featuring characters and plot elements spanning all the way from that very first game twenty-two years ago. Its not often that a video game sequel requires full knowledge of its predecessors, and in many ways The Legend of Heroes tried to do that with Daybreak, but now that everything has gathered together in The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon, players best be ready for the most character packed, lore heavy, game of the franchise since Reverie.”
