Launching September 19.

It's kind of a spin-off, so I think you can play it without having played rest of the series.

Has anyone here played the original? Or planning to play this remaster?

Not sure if you'll find anyone who has played the original, this is the first time it's come out in English. But yes! It's a totally original title unconnected to any other series despite the name. It's like the ys games so an action rpg.

I've had a pre order in for months, but I'll buy anything Falcom makes, it's all so good.

Ah, I didn't know that original wasn't released in English. Thanks for the info!

I have played the original, and will be playing the remaster, though not on Switch, I already own the Japanese version on Steam which will be patched with the localization upon release in the West.

It's quite a fun, fast-paced game, as Falcom action RPGs tend to be. Being a PSP title originally, I think the game format works well for shorter, pick-up-and-play sessions, making it ideal on devices like the Switch and Steam Deck. No context or experience with the wider Trails series necessary, all connections to the mainline series are just simple references and the game has a standalone story (unless you're deep in the rabbit hole of lore crack theories).

How's the remaster compared to original? Controls and visuals are good?
