Description

Nihon Falcom's acclaimed RPG franchise, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, continues to make waves with the upcoming launch of Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter on Nintendo Switch.

As Falcom drums up anticipation ahead of the game's eShop debut on September 19, 2025, their latest focus is an in-depth look at Agate Crosner, one of the series' most memorable Bracers. Agate Crosner, now showcased in newly released promotional material, brings a distinct mix of grit and reliability to the Trails in the Sky story.

Voiced by industry veteran Ben Pronsky in the upcoming Nintendo Switch version, Agate stands out as a formidable young Bracer.

Renowned for his capacity to wield an imposing greatsword—an attribute that earned him the moniker "Heavy Blade"—Agate often presents a brusque exterior.

Despite his blunt demeanor and occasionally harsh treatment of fellow Bracers Estelle and Joshua Bright, his dedication and unrivaled skill have cemented the trust of his peers throughout the Liberl Kingdom. In the game, Agate is depicted traversing Liberl alone, actively gathering intelligence and investigating critical cases that unfold throughout Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter.

While his straightforward attitude can appear abrasive, the underlying sense of justice and loyalty makes Agate a fan-favorite within the Trails series.

Falcom emphasizes these core aspects in both character design and dialogue, delivering a multi-dimensional personality that enriches the narrative experience on Nintendo hardware. The latest character trailer, courtesy of Nihon Falcom, spotlights Agate's prowess and hints at the engaging story threads players can expect as they journey across the Liberl Kingdom.

Fans eager to re-experience the origins of the acclaimed Trails series on the Nintendo Switch can also look forward to previous character showcase trailers for pivotal cast members: Estelle Bright, Joshua Bright, Scherazard Harvey, Olivier Lenheim, and Kloe Rinz. First released on PC and PlayStation Portable, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter remains celebrated for its layered storytelling, character development, and strategic turn-based combat.

Falcom's efforts to bring this foundational title to modern platforms like the Nintendo Switch reaffirms the studio's commitment to accessibility and ongoing support for its iconic RPG franchises. With the September 19, 2025 Nintendo Switch release date set, Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter joins a growing roster of classic JRPGs on the platform, offering both series veterans and newcomers a chance to experience the timeless adventure.

Stay tuned for further developer insights and Nintendo Direct updates as launch day approaches.
