The game will launch on Nintendo’s console on April 9, 2021 in both Europe and North America.

Fans in Oceania will have to wait a bit longer, as the game will hit that market on April 16.

The game is already available on PS4, while the PC version’s release date will be announced at a later time.

The western release comes less than a month after the launch for Japan, which isn’t bad at all.

A Frontline Edition will be available for those who want to go above and beyond.

If you’re unfamiliar with The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV, here’s how NIS America describes it officially.

The Erebonian Empire is on the brink of all-out war! 

Taking place shortly after the ending of Trails of Cold Steel III, the heroes of Class VII find themselves against the full force of the Empire in an attempt to stop its path of total domination. Further, the hero of the Erebonian Civil War and Class VII’s instructor, Rean Schwarzer, has gone missing. Now, the students of Class VII, old and new, must unite with heroes from all over the continent to create the only chance the world has to be spared from total destruction.

In the meanwhile, Nihon Falcom already released in Japan next game of the franchise, titled Hajimari no Kiseki, and just announced the one coming after, The Legend of Heroes: Kuro No Kiseki.

Hopefully, we won’t have to wait as long as usual to play those in the west.
