Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter is a follow-up to Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter (Sora no Kiseki the 1st), the remake of the original The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky game.

The company describes the story:

Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter follows Estelle as she searches for Joshua and confronts the Enforcers of Ouroboros. Though the struggle centers on Liberl Kingdom, its implications touch the wider continent of Zemuria, drawing Estelle into ancient mysteries, political tensions, and the truth behind Joshua's past. With the fate of a legendary artifact at stake, Estelle must step up as a young leader, ready to face an enemy whose plans reach far beyond anything she imagined.

The remake will have English and Japanese voice support on all platforms. Japanese, English, German, French, and Spanish versions of the text will be supported on PC via Steam. English, German, French, and Spanish text language support will be available on consoles.
