Originally released in Japan as Eiyuu Densetsu: Sen no Kiseki on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita, with an enhanced release on Windows PC shortly after, this PlayStation 4 release of The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel begins the adventure of Rean Schwarzer anew, and introduces Thors Military Academy's specialised ‘Class VII’, with added features not found in any previous console releases.

For the first time in the series' history, dual audio has been included, giving players the chance to enjoy the original Japanese voices, or play with the highly acclaimed English dub that includes more than 5,000 additional English lines of dialogue, previously available only in the Windows PC edition.

Marvelous Europe has also confirmed that downloadable content previously released for The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel will all come pre-bundled in this PlayStation 4 version of the game. Additionally PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita owners will be able to transfer their save game data to this PlayStation 4 version of the game; with transfer bonuses - such as new outfits and bond points - being awarded.

About The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel:
Among the nations on the Zemurian continent, the mighty Erebonian Empire has been quick to outwardly stake its claim militarily; yet politically, ugly bouts of internal conflict between the upper class and commoners attempting to rise to power have been steadily intensifying day by day. The Noble and Reformist Factions have been none too kind to each other over the years, and tensions between the two only stand to worsen if compromises are not made in the very near future.

Rean Schwarzer, like any other citizen of the Imperial North, is no stranger to these rising conflicts – the class system has been deeply embedded into the hearts of every Erebonian since the days of old. However, as a 17-year-old student preparing for his new life at Thors Military Academy, he notices that his crimson uniform differs from the standard outfits issued to his peers – typically green for commoners and white for nobles.

Enter Class VII of Thors Military Academy. For the first time in the prestigious academy's history, rank means nothing and skill means everything. With nine handpicked students of various backgrounds alongside Rean, Class VII readies itself to dive deep into the political quagmire that threatens not only them, but the Empire as a whole.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel will be available both digitally and physically for the PlayStation 4, with a standard physical version being available at selected retailers across Europe. A physical Limited Edition of The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel, known as the Decisive Edition, is also available exclusively from the Marvelous Games store.
