Nihon Falcom potwierdza remake starszej gry w planach!

In a recent interview conducted by the Chinese portal Gouhou, the president of developer Nihon Falcom, Toshihiro Kondo, confirmed some exciting news. The interview covered various topics related to the company’s latest releases, such as Ys X Nordics and the upcoming The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV. However, one of the most significant questions revolved around the developer’s plans for remakes. It turns out they do have plans in motion and are currently working on a remake of an older game, although the specific title has not been disclosed.

Kondo explained that many employees joined Falcom because of their love for this particular game and expressed their dedication to working on the remake once they complete their tasks on The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV. The entire team is actively engaged in the development of the remake, aiming to complete it as soon as possible.

After reading this interview, there are several possibilities regarding which game will be revitalized. One potential option is Ys V. Kondo previously expressed his desire to remake this title before retiring. However, this seems unlikely as it’s a game highly revered by the majority of the team, and Ys V is not particularly popular.

Falcom also expressed their interest in bringing the Trails in the Sky trilogy to modern platforms, so it’s possible that this series will be the focus of the remake. Regardless of their choice, this is undoubtedly an exciting and promising endeavor. We will keep you updated on future releases and Falcom’s progress.
