I’m so excited! NIS America just announced that The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero and Trails to Azure are coming to PlayStation 5 and the new Switch this fall! You’ll be able to grab each game digitally on its own, or if you’re like me and want the whole experience, you can get them both as a set. I’ve been waiting for these for ages!

The game will run better on PlayStation 5 and the new Switch 2, offering sharper graphics with 4K resolution and smoother gameplay at 120 frames per second. The Switch 2 version will also allow players to use a mouse.

Here is an overview of each game, via NIS America:
