About Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter

After the coup that shook Liberl, Estelle and Joshua become senior bracers, but Joshua vanishes on the eve of the Queen's Birthday Festival. Estelle sets out across the continent with his harmonica, determined to find him while the kingdom faces a new threat.

The sequel continues the first chapter's story, adds new combat tools, side activities such as fishing and cooking, and lets players import cleared data for bonus items. It runs on Windows via Steam with full controller support, HDR, Steam Cloud, and family sharing.

01 / THE GUIDE

Carry‑over Data from First Chapter

Importing clear data from the first chapter grants bonus items at the start of the sequel. These items are intended to help players progress more smoothly through early story sections.

The bonus items are obtained by carrying over clear data, linking the two titles and preserving a sense of continuity for returning players.

  • Verify that your first‑chapter save file is in the correct Steam folder before launching the sequel.
  • Compare the initial inventory with a fresh start to see which items were added.

Combat Options and Systems

The game introduces new Crafts and S‑Crafts, expanding the range of physical attacks available to characters. These moves expand the offensive options available to characters in combat.

A new Brave Rush mechanic links character attacks in Quick Battles, while the orbment system provides access to Arts, adding magical options to the combat toolbox.

  • Try Brave Rush with characters that have complementary attack types to observe damage changes.
  • Mix Arts with Crafts in a single encounter to test how the two systems interact.
