The pacing in general is among the series’ best, as Azure is just firing on all cylinders for a lot of the playtime. However, if there’s one aspect the story falters, it’s with the endgame villains and their associated reveals – some hit better than others, but one reveal in particular left us wanting a bit more.įortunately, everything else about the narrative is riveting. We really can’t talk about the plot any more than this, but we can say that it’s excellent, and quite possibly the series’ best. Crossbell becomes a hotbed of drama for the whole 60-hour runtime. The game comes out of the gate swinging from minute one, and right up until the final hour. That little summary doesn’t begin to even scratch the surface of what Trails to Azure has to offer. One, the truth behind the murder of Lloyd’s older brother Guy, and two, the importance of a little girl the SSS saved in Zero, KeA.

But as political turmoil looms around the corner, and multiple nefarious organisations begin to worm their way into the state, the SSS – led by Lloyd Bannings – also has personal stakes wrapped within the tangled web of Crossbell’s fate. Set a few months after the end of Trails from Zero, Trails to Azure once again follows the Special Support Section (SSS) as they help the citizens of Crossbell, which is enjoying a temporary period of peace. We’ve already said that Zero makes a case for being one of the series’ best entries, and Azure takes that statement and runs with it.

And finally, the missing gap in the series has been filled, and the conclusion of the Crossbell arc has reached us. And with The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero’s cracking debut last September, the wait for Trails to Azure has had us salivating. The release of the Crossbell Saga in English has been a long time coming for fans of the Trails series.
