About The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure
The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure continues the Crossbell storyline a few months after Trails from Zero, following Lloyd Bannings and the Special Support Section as they confront new organizations and growing political pressure from the Erebonian Empire and the Republic of Calvard. Their temporary peace is tested, leading toward the finale of the Crossbell arc.
The Windows release adds combat options such as Burst and Back Attack, includes a customizable car feature, and supports full controller use. Players may import a Trails from Zero save for extra scenes, and their save can later provide bonuses in Trails into Reverie.
