Trails of Cold Steel Gaiden?

Yeah they mentioned that along with the next trails game. And they just announced this from their latest financial report, translated by dualshockers and gematsu:

Falcom mentioned how the next game in the Kiseki series will be launching by September 2020. Falcom usually releases one game a year at the end of September. This might mean Falcom will release a game before September 2020. This would coincide with how two Kiseki games are currently in development, a “Trails of Cold Steel Gaiden”-like game, which will release first, and the next main entry.

Falcom also stated in the document that in the future, “upgrades” of older Kiseki games will release on PS4 as “Kai” versions. This hints that the previously teased PS4 versions of Zero no Kiseki and Ao no Kiseki are coming soon, and are actual remakes.

And the Trails series has now sold over 4.3 million copies worldwide.

Did you see the revelation scene with george and angelica? that part cannot be recorded using ps4's built in recorder.
 
on persona 5 and some parts of some games yes the feature is blocked. I recorded all my gameplays on my ps4 using the built in ps4 recorder feature.
 
I am currently exploring a big dungeon castle with all of old and new class 7 members and Sara. Big group to manage and customize lol

Guess I got to confirm a fear of mine, how many characters are there to choose and do they all gain exp?

Main 16, guests 4+++. The main ones, they all level up and gain exp and fully customizable by chapter 4. And the number of playable characters will grow more in Cold Steel IV.

Are bonding events actually the hardest to make?

This time bonding events were also substantial.

Bonding events are the easiest for gathering the opinion of fans. However, bonding events are also the ones that makes the development staff complain the most, especially when it involves a lot of special animations... When I mentioned the next title, the first thing they asked was whether it would involve bonding events again. (sweats) But as fans seem to enjoy them, I think they’re okay with it.

Alisa is the most popular character based on the trophies for final bonding events.

Thanks to the main heroine treatment. Overwhelming heroine power, right there. Juna did her best in her leading role, but I have a hunch that didn’t unexpectedly increase her trophy unlock rate.

Maybe people are a little hesitant to seduce their students. Also, Juna feels more like a protagonist than a heroine.

Juna as a female protagonist gives off this feeling we haven’t felt since Estelle.

By the way, what bonding event did you get a lot of response to?
Machias’ bonding event got praise. In these scenes he overcomes the root of his aversion toward the nobility. Many wanted to see them entirely voiced, but the contents of the events were decided at the very last moment...

The next game’s setting will be Zemuria’s eastern half!

Specifically where are you considering to have the next arc take place?
We’ve basically come to Liberl, Crossbell and Erebonia so far, so what hasn’t been presented so far are the eastern territories. The Calvard Republic is the biggest one of them. Furthermore, there are several states that have only a name attached to hem. I think the next Trails will begin having its setting somewhere over there.

Are changes to the game mechanics likely?
The Erebonia arc was a big break for us, so we would like to start the new Trails by greatly revising and supporting the games’ mechanics and specs. At the same time there are also parts we haven't been able to conclude thus far. We’re in the middle of our investigation whether we also can make a title that completely exhausts those parts.

What parts connecting to future instalments, like the ending, would you like people to remember?
There are a lot, not just the ending. (laughs) Keywords related to the world’s mysteries or the Ouroboros-related scene you can see after fulfilling certain requirements during the ending will play a big role in future developments of Trails.

Finally, do you have a message for all Trails fans?
It took us pretty much 14 years to reach the grand finale of the Erebonia arc. Whether you’ve been playing throughout these 14 years or jumped in halfway, you’ve been able to enjoy several Trails arcs. I really feel that we’ve been able to come this far thanks to everyone’s help. We’re thinking about continuing the Trails series in the future, and adding new elements to what we’ve been doing so far. Seeing as it’s a considerably long series, I think there are parts that have to be changed as we continue. Keeping that in mind, please continue to support us as we drive the series to its completion.

Yep they all really kicking ass especially the new and improved Rean and just beat The "Golden Raksha" in a one on one sword match lol take that new principal,

The final act revelation scene is great. Now exploring the final dungeon that will lead to the major cliffhanger ending. Hopefully English Cold Steel IV will come very soon...
