Falcom plans to release a Trails beyond the Horizon sequel in the fiscal year ending September 2027.

In its financial report published on November 11, Nihon Falcom confirmed plans for a follow-up to Kai no Kiseki: Farewell, O Zemuria, the Japanese title of The Legend of Heroes: Trails beyond the Horizon. The release falls within the fiscal year running from October 2026 through September 2027.

Falcom has not named the sequel in full or announced its platforms. Regional release dates and the timing of an English edition still need a more detailed announcement.

The story that the sequel follows

The previous game takes place as a prophecy warns of the Zemurian continent’s end and humanity prepares its first journey into space. An invitation from Marduk brings Van Arkride, Rean Schwarzer and Kevin Graham into a high-tech training exercise. Their paths lead toward secrets at the heart of their world.

NIS America released the English Switch edition on January 15, 2026. Falcom’s new financial announcement concerns a game that continues that story.

One new game alongside ports

Falcom expects to release one new game during fiscal 2027 while continuing to bring existing titles to more platforms and regions. It also says several projects are in development, including unannounced ones. The single new release is the plan for that fiscal year, rather than the total number of games the company is making.

After reporting revenue of ¥4.474 billion for fiscal 2026, Falcom forecasts ¥3 billion for the following year. It attributes the expected decrease to the schedule of one new game and the sales trajectory of earlier releases. The Trails beyond the Horizon sequel is the new title identified in that plan.
