11th entry in the trails series and the first game in Calvard arc, Kuro no Kiseki have been announced for 2021. No platforms announced yet, but it should at least come to PS4.

You can read about it on gematsu, and I expect the official website to come tomorrow after Falcom's shareholder meeting.

Well at least the complainers can finally rejoice that we've left Erebonia at long last.

Hmmmm yeah looks like less a sword and more of a metal bar with a handle. Well it'll be interesting to finally see things from the Republic's side.

I was thought the MC would be fist martial artist from latest image

LROlsson · 2020-12-16, 10:53

The key visual. And as always, Falcom does a good job with them.

Hope it's adult MC for this arc

Kinda got tired with the trope with 'young people full of potential' and keep getting their ass kicked by their enemies or seniors.

The protagonist is an adult in Kuro.
It even gave me a laugh when I read the interview in famitsu since they will replace the bonding event system with something that has another name since he is an adult.
Like, it can't be called bonding events since he is an adult.

The Green One · 2020-12-16, 12:31

Well it'll be interesting to see what new Enforcers or Anguis we get to meet. We've still got a few unknowns and I imagine the Calvard Arc is where we're going to meet them.

Let the DRAMA begin!
I'm still put off with the spoilers of the major twist in Hajimari *shudders*, but that's just a me-problem

I thought the same thing. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing the Republic.

MeoTwister5 · 2020-12-16, 21:46

Calvard was already a powder keg before Operation Jormundgand, so.it would be interesting to have a finer look at the country that borders the rest of the continent that's already in decline as per Ka Fai's letters.

LROlsson · 2020-12-17, 00:20

The website is up now.

Diluc · 2020-12-17, 00:54

Ooooh that nice, not used yet with this new engine.

Two men and one girl, a love triangle perhaps ?

After whole harem shit in Crossbell and Erebonia, i don't mind... we need fresh breath

Please not X_X. Unless they are comedic, love triangles tend to be crap

. But maybe the crappy dramas in them have "damaged" me from all the VNs I played. This is a can of worms to be opened as soon as the first actual character information will be released

However, I agree that a fresh breath is always a good idea. I wouldn't even mind no romance at all (as a big romance fan) or having it already pre-established as a background story and instead a big focus on friendship/comradeship between the main cast.

Anyway, I remember somehow that with Calvard the new more action-driven combat system will also be used. Will be interesting to see how it will turn out.

While I think it's quite possible for a love triangle, it will not likely be between those three.
The protagonist already kind of have a love interest, a bracer that isn't fond of his choice of becoming a Spriggan and hasn't really been in contact with him lately.
I wonder what her reaction will be when she founds out that he is running around with a high school girl.

Sacredus · 2020-12-17, 08:25

Going by Falcom tradition of teasing next arc characters in books*, blond girl seems to be Sunshine Agnes from books in Trails of Azure.

Spoiler for small spoiler from Hajimari:

*If you didn't know this already, from what I remember:

Spoiler for just in case:

About this:

Quote:

If a game does not sell well, there will not be a sequel, and the Trails series is no exception.

I see this game as Trails of Zero (that was not planned at all btw). It got proper ending, and since it sold well it got a sequel that is best game in whole series (Trails of Azure/Ao).

Edit:
Some more detailed info about game from interview with Kondo on Dualshockers: https://www.dualshockers.com/the-leg...battle-system/

marvelB · 2020-12-17, 17:01

Ah, we're finally moving on to the Calvard arc... I've been waiting for this! That detail about the new cast being more morally grey intrigues me, as well. I also see Kondo claiming that this new title will be an entry point for newcomers, but I also recall him saying the same thing about the Sen/CS series, so excuse me if I have some lingering doubts about that statement, lol.

Also, totally looking forward to the soundtrack!

BTW, I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but there was another Kiseki announcement, though it's not LoH-related: Nayuta is getting a PS4 remaster! Still, while this is great news on its own right, I still would have preferred a sequel...

When Falcom started working on the new engine, they didn’t have access to PS5 info yet. However, they’re now making concrete progress for PS5.

This game is also coming to PS5 and maybe Falcom's next-gen game for that platform.

LROlsson · 2020-12-18, 04:45

On the 20th Falcom will have their paid event called Falcom Day 2020 Winter, and a part of the beginning of it will be streamed for free on youtube. The the link for it has finally appeared.
There might be some additional info about Kuro in it, but it's not certain I think.

They warn for spoilers for the previous games in it.

Spoiler for Just in case due to the thumbnail, It's kind of spoiler for Hajimari
