Confirmed: Legend of Heroes Zero no Kiseki Coming to PlayStation Vita

The image, supposedly from a post card that comes with a Falcom drama CD, refers to the game as Legend of Heroes: Zero no Kiseki Full Voice Version and lists a release of Spring 2012. Details are promised at http://www.zero-full.com.

I don't have any way of verifying if the image is legit or not, so you should probably consider this a rumor for now.

If that's true, that would be awesome. Maybe they'll even give Adol a voice in Ys Celceta (since they oddly did in Ys vs Sora).

On one hand I kind of wonder if this is partially so the series beyond 2 and 3 can easily come out over here. On the other hand I half suspect adding voice acting could undermine that, I guess it depends on how much of the text is voiced.

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
You know what to do Xseed!

Ugh, why did I waste $70 on the original that I still haven't played :( This version will make it irrelevant.

Then again it'll suck playing this in full voice and then going to no voice for the rest of the installments so maybe I shouldn't play this one unless they're going to redo the latest one with full voice as well.

I'd wager event scenes only and major characters only (those with portraits).

I thought Xseed would bring the entire trilogy. Wondering if they'll just port the two PSP games and then the 3rd on Vita.

Is this the direct sequel to Trails, or something else?

Zero is the fourth game, it has a new hero and although it references events from the first three games, it is largely a new story.

this is not the 3rd game

sora no kiseki 1+2+3 (aka trails in the sky 1+2+3) is legend of heroes 6

zero no kiseki is legend of heroes 7

ao no kiseki is legend of heroes 8

xseed is 4 games behind the japanese releases (5 if you include the ys vs sora no kiseki spin off)

If it truly is a full voice edition, there's no way XSEED could afford to dub it. That'd be a crazy amount of voice acting.

Yeah, I'd be hoping (and honestly AM expecting) it's pretty much just all story sequences. Which probably would be heavy, but I'd hope not moreso than, say, P3 or 4.

Even if it were the same amount of voice as the Persona games (and I honestly doubt that would be the case even if they restricted it to mainline story scenes), this is an even more super-niche series. I have to wonder if the expense of dubbing would be worth it.

Ah I was all confused. I didn't know trails in the sky was broken into chapters.

Unless SCEA says they have to. Even without that though I doubt it'd make sense for the setting (could be wrong!) and it'd break consistency with Trails in the Sky having English dubbing, what little was needed anyway.

Also I tried using /dns in mIRC on www.zero-full.com and www.falcom.co.jp, and didn't get the same IP. Dunno how much that matters or not, the IPs were 114.179.231.55 for zero-full.com and 202.181.96.244 for falcom.co.jp (and falcom.com for that matter).

The whois resolves to a place in Shibuya, though, and it isn't rumor any more - there's definitely a card in all of the Ao drama CDs that announces this. So this is definitely a Thing That Is Coming and the site will likely be live in a day or two.

Wasn't expecting this at all, really interested to see how it turns out.

I've currently put 20 hours into the original game now and it's really fun.

Whaaaat. I'm thinking I'd rather wait until they finish the series and make a compilation title type thing. Would this ever happen? I'm interested in the series, but not enough to wrap my head around the chronology of it all.

I knew trying it again on the IP itself gave an address ending in .jp, but it's good to know it really is for real.

Even more ports? It just looks like to be the same situation like PSP in Japan. But at least it will be interesting for hardcorefans and people that haven´t played the original but like this kind of games.

I hope it's true. Would improve the non-existent chances we have at seeing it in English someday.

Trails in the Sky (Sora no Kiseki) + Trails in the Sky SC are the first part, split down the middle between two games. So SC picks up literally right where the first game left off.

Trails in the Sky 3rd is a sequel the previous two games, but it doesn't pick up right where they left off like SC does. Pretty sure it also has a new cast (and some cameos I think) in a different country.

Falcom did release a compilation of those three games in Japan, but I don't think XSEED would bother with that here. Would probably cost more than they could hope to get back on it, especially as late as it would be released.

Can't really speak for the other two games, I just know they take place in the same world, but I don't know how they relate to the previous games or each other.
