Peace is but a memory.

In the wake of the Noble Faction’s occupation of Heimdallr, civil war has broken out across Erebonia. The provincial armies, loyal to the aristocracy and the Four Great Houses, have claimed many of the nation’s great cities in the name of the Noble Alliance. The Imperial Army, called back from the four corners of the Empire, has only just begun its sweeping counterattack.

After Rean managed to escape Trista with Celine and Valimar, he awakens in the mountains near his hometown uncertain what fate befell his friends, who bravely threw themselves in harm’s way to buy him time to flee.

Though the road will not be an easy one, Rean decides to take up his sword again, journeying across Erebonia with his Divine Knight, Valimar, in search of his friends from Class VII and a way to end the conflict before its price becomes far too dear…

Taking place on the same continent as the fan favorite Trails in the Sky offshoot of Nihon Falcom’s storied The Legend of Heroes franchise, Trails of Cold Steel II (Sen no Kiseki II in Japanese) is a direct sequel to Trails of Cold Steel, picking up one month after the decisive collision that changed the fate of the entire nation of Erebonia. The speedy, tactical turn-based combat with the newly-developed “ARCUS” system returns with all the bells and whistles together with the new Overdrive mode, new means of transportation both across the land and sky, new allies, new dangers, and a renewed sense of hope as Rean tirelessly works to right the wrongs that have led the country to disarray.
  • A Direct Sequel that Remembers the Past - Clear data from Trails of Cold Steel carries over into Trails of Cold Steel II, granting players bonuses, and most importantly, remembering the many relationships cultivated during time spent at Thors Military Academy, allowing for more personalized conversations throughout the story.
  • Take to the Land and Sky in New Modes of Transportation - Fast travel isn’t just for Trista anymore; a personalized airship now allows players to swiftly choose and descend upon both familiar and foreign destinations alike—and on land, horseback riding not only returns, but players can now customize and utilize Angelica’s orbal bike for fast transportation across the map.
  • The Link System Returns with a new Overdrive Mode - Bonding with allies continues to pay off with the Combat Link System, netting a variety of combat benefits including healing, guarding, and more, and the new Overdrive mode allows linked characters to attack up to three turns in a row for new strategic battle options.
  • Experience the Game as Never Before - 50% more lines of English voice-overs have been added to the PC release, bringing a fresh experience to even those who have played it before on console. New features for this release include ultrawide aspect ratio support, turbo mode, and an instant resume feature that allows players to launch directly from Steam to their most recent save.

A rehash of the first game

While you still get 50+ hours of gameplay, you may be disappointed. Since I've played the first game I expected much more - what you get are 90% same locations and same characters. The story seems much worse than in the first game and the characters feel flat and uninspired - the authors simply made two games for the price of one...

Great story as always

Going from schoolkid to a runaway rebel is a neat change too but this game is a great addition to the legend of heroes story

Total waste of time, ruins part 1 completly

Well i wasnt pretty impressed with the Final Chapter of the first one, it was a waste and ruined lots of things in my opinion but never the less it was still a good game overall. This second game here, ruins the game fruther more and feels like some fanboy, that also likes soul games sorts of, without any knowledge of design made it. If i had to rate first and second game fomr A to D it would be: A to A+ ToCS1 without final chapter A- ToCS1 with final chapter C to C- ToCS2 Summary: You are totally powerless compared to ToCS1, they changed lots of quartz and stuff that existed before, you miss a damn lot even with 50% ACC and get countered of cause, you take way to much dmg from low enemys and you heal pretty low amounts too, stuff costs way to much seph and you dont get that much, u material is still rare but you need even more compared to ToCS1, when you met someone from before its like you havent seen them for 5-10 years but its only 1 month, lots of stuff is forgotten from story, still like a tunnel and less freedom then part 1 and so on and so bad...

Love the somewhat grown up story

It's like a final fantasy with crappy anime graphics but a WAY better, more mature story and deeper combat. Loved it. Can't wait for the next installation.
