    It's a shame that NIS and Falcom both decided to bring Trails from Zero in Europe only after the vastly superior Trails of Cold Steel series. This way a very solid if formulaic JRPG as this does not get the attention it deserves, due also to a lazy remastering process.

    A porting with some nice improvements to keep up with the times, but still dedicated to a nostalgic audience of classic JRPGs.

    The Legend of Heroes: Trails From Zero is a very bad remaster of a very good game. While the story of the SSS and the journey through Crossbell must be played by any fan of the series and the gameplay holds up surprisingly well even today, the PS4 version leaves so much to be desired that it is only recommended for those who can't afford to play it on another platform.

    In spite of its age, this Tactical RPG is a really gorgeous and charming game. Great sound, story and combat system. [Recommended]

    The game is fun. If you're already embroiled in the greater story it provides a lot of missing detail. Side quests are the killer, there's just a lot
