Fan group Le Liberl News has announced that it has launched its French fan translation of The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky FC, the first game in the Trails franchise. Immense congratulations to the team for concluding what was undoubtedly a time-consuming and challenging process, considering the word counts these games have.
This fan translation has also come well over a decade after the game’s original English localization on PSP and almost a decade since the Steam release.
Below, you can view Le Liberl New’s tweet on this feat, which provides the directions and files needed for the installation process. However, it’s worth noting that there are some capacity issues, so if you’re interested in playing this French fan translation, it’s worth following their account to stay updated.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky is the first arc of the still ongoing Trails series by developer Nihon Falcom. Taking place on the continent of Zemuria in the region of Liberl, protagonist Estelle Bright and her adopted brother Joshua Bright begin a journey to become fully-fledged Bracers, an occupation for helping the citizenry.
This trilogy is available on PC in the West, though enhanced ports, titled Evolution, were launched in Asia, which feature bonus content and voice acting. A remake of the Trails in the Sky trilogy is potentially in the works.
The next Westward entry will be The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak, launching for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC in Summer 2024.
