The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon review for Nintendo Switch 2

System: Switch 2 (reviewed) / Switch
Release date: January 15, 2026
Developer: Nihon Falcom
Publisher: NIS America
For more than two decades, The Legend of Heroes has been quietly building one of the most intricate and patient narratives in video game history. What began in 2004 with Trails in the Sky evolved into a sprawling, interconnected saga spanning multiple arcs, continents, and generations of characters, all unfolding within a single, meticulously constructed world. Unlike many long-running RPG franchises that reset with each entry, the Trails series treats its timeline as sacred: political shifts linger, personal choices echo forward, and side characters return years later shaped by events players once thought complete. By the time Trails Beyond the Horizon arrives, it does not stand alone so much as it stands atop the accumulated weight of twenty years of storytelling ambition. With that legacy in mind, Trails Beyond the Horizon arrives with immense expectations.
