Trails beyond the Horizon Sequel Confirmed for 2027 as Falcom Steps Back from Remakes

Falcom has confirmed that the next game in its long-running Trails series will be a sequel to Trails beyond the Horizon, due in Japan by the end of September 2027. The announcement matters because the 2024 game ends on a major cliffhanger, and Falcom is prioritising the current story over further remakes.

The financial report identifies the sequel as Falcom’s only major title in development for 2027 and refers only to its Japanese release. A Western launch has not been confirmed, though the article says the West is now caught up with the series after Horizon was localised in January 2026. The decision also pushes the next remake, potentially Trails in the Sky the 3rd, towards 2028.
