From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Trails, known as Kiseki (軌跡) in Japan, is a science fantasy series of role-playing video games by Nihon Falcom. Trails is a part of their larger The Legend of Heroes franchise and began with the release of Trails in the Sky in 2004. The games were released exclusively in Asia until the 2010s, with Xseed Games handling its English localization and global publishing until being replaced by NIS America in 2019.
