Beyond the blue sky, ahead of a flashing light, a land of dawning resides—.
This latter half of the Trails series is about to begin! The setting moves to the Calvard Republic—.
In 2021, Falcom will release The Legend of Heroes: Kuro no Kiseki, the latest entry in the Trails series, as its 40th anniversary commemorative work.
The Calvard Republic is a multiethnic nation experiencing unprecedented economic growth brought about by postwar reparations. In a corner of the capital of a huge nation where immigration issues bring about political instability and a new president is pushing for radical political reform, a young man who works as a “Spriggan” (Underground Fixer) receives a peculiar job, which eventually develops into an issue that shakes the entire nation of Calvard.
■ Prologue
Spriggans—a kind of “underground profession” born from the melting pot of diversity that is the Calvard Republic.
Some days as detectives, some days as negotiators, and other days as bounty hunters, they are up for any job from any client. That includes cases even the police are unable to handle and issues citizens cannot discuss in public, as well as “honest” work from criminals and underground organizations.
That was the style of the “underground fixers,” as they were called.
S.1208. A schoolgirl wearing the uniform of a prestigious school visits an rundown building located in the old town of the Republic’s capital.
“The Arclide Fixer Agency.”
With a dignified gaze, the girl glances at the cold typography of a slate that bears this name.
She swallows her breath and knocks three times with determination.
…
“Yaaawn, well a client before noon is rare…”
The mature, yet young; sloppy, yet composed voice of a man echoes as the doorknob slowly turned.
—This is the beginning of a new Trails.

More on the battle System, translated by dualshockers:
Toshihiro Kondo explained that in The Legend of Heroes: Kuro no Kiseki, the transition from exploration to battle will be seamless, location-wise and time-wise. Meaning there is no dedicated fighting arena when a battle starts, and you start fighting on the spot. The only difference when you enter battle is a slight camera zoom. The Field Attack that appeared in past games until now has been fused into the commands you use in battle now.
Next, Kondo stressed out that while they plan to add Action elements, it won’t be an Action battle system. It won’t be a battle system based on reflexes like in an Action RPG. And it won’t be like a certain mainstream RPG remake, hinting at Final Fantasy 7 Remake. But instead of inputting the commands while the characters don’t move, you will be able to do it in “real time”. Moreover, we’ll be able to switch between the turn-based battle system and the battle system that includes Action elements. Turn-based will allow you to give out more fleshed out instructions to the characters, so you should change depending on the situation. Lastly, Kondo stated the terrain’s geography will also affect the battle system.

Battles will be Faster Overall
The main reason they’re changing the battle system is to increase the battle’s tempo. With a brand new UI and button operation, the battle time will only depend on the strenght of the enemies now. Battles will be shorter when fighting weaker enemies.

instead of talking about it, I would have much rather seen an example. I mean right now it only takes like a minute to battle/kill weak enemies in Cold Steel 4, if you get them from the back at least...
Indeed. hopefully it will be on the 20th steam later, showing the battle system in real time action.
Read more on the other game systems and new game + translated by dualshockers:
The Topic System
Kondo explained many fans of the Trails / Kiseki series enjoy regularly speaking with NPCs. The Topic System will be linked to that. For example, you heard in a convesation “it looks like that store will start a special sale starting next week”. This will be registered as a Topic in the Topic System. If you go to the specified store and use the Topic System, depending on how you bring up the subject, it’s possible to convince the merchant to give you the bargain ahead of schedule. This will be in tone with the protagonist’s job as a Spriggan, always turning situations to their advantage. Kondo however said they don’t know yet how far this system will go.Alignment Frame System
Toshihiro Kondo explained that depending on your play style, the characters have three unique numerical attributes that will raise: Law, Gray, and Chaos. These attributes will influence the character’s stats and the scenario. It’s a brand new system in the Trails / Kiseki series called the Alignment Frame. For example, after catching a criminal, you’ll be able to choose whether you hand them out to the Bracer Guild or not. Each of the three attributes of the Alignment Frame will raise depending on these actions. And depending on your Alignment Frame, the job offers and the dialogue choices you get will differ.New Game + is Still here
Toshihiro Kondo said you’ll need to play Kuro no Kiseki at least twice to see everything the game has to offer and 100% the game. Your Law, Gray, and Chaos attributes are also inherited in New Game +. Moreover, it’s impossible to be locked out of an event because one of the three attributes is too high. So players don’t need to worry about raising a certain attribute too much.New System Similar to Bonding Events
Toshihiro Kondo explained that seeing the protagonist can also handle shady jobs, the game’s atmosphere is different than what we’ve see in the Kiseki series. There will be a system nearly identical to Bonding Events, but under a new name. Parrly because the protagonist is an adult.

I don't want to play the game twice to see everything.
Well you don't have to see everything to enjoy the game. Enjoyment of the game is the main thing.
