The Legend of Heroes Trails through Daybreak II English west

June 25: A leak has outed NIS America’s English localization plans for The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II in the west.

On social media, Hansuke21 found a new logo for the game on the PlayStation 5 after setting their system to English. A Switch version is also expected as Falcom will be shipping the RPG for Nintendo’s console in the region next month.

Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition physical

It was previously announced that Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition would be getting a physical release, but Limited Run Games just came through with more details.

As always, there’ll be a standard version. On top of that though, Limited Run is planning a collector’s edition for Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition. Each copy includes the game, a double-sided poster, a set of instant photo art prints, an art book, plus “other touches that make it the ultimate set for Beyond Good & Evil fans.”

The Legend of Heroes Trails through Daybreak trailer

The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak is finally here in the west, and to celebrate, NIS America readied a launch trailer. This is the latest entry in the franchise from Falcom.

A brief rundown can be found in the following overview:

Spirittea physical

Spirittea was previously sold digitally on Switch, but a physical release is now in the cards. Fans can pick it up later this summer.

Spirittea will only be sold with a standard boxed version – so no special editions. However, that alone is noteworthy for collectors given how it was only sold on the eShop until now.

Rabi-Ribi physical

Rabi-Ribi, which originally appeared in 2016, is now receiving a new Platinum Edition. Justdan International, Sekai Project, CreSpirit, and GemaYue made the announcement today.

The Platinum Edition packs in all DLC that was released for the game previously. There’s also a digital artbook included plus some other bonuses.

Ao Oni

Today, Game Studio announced plans to offer a Switch version of Ao Oni. The title arrives for the console on July 26, 2024.

Ao Oni made its debut in 2008 as a freeware game. The horror RPG has gone on to become a cult classic horror RPG since then.
