Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter: second character trailer introduces Joshua Bright; physical pre-order to kick off next week in Europe and North America

Nihon Falcom has started a series of character trailers for Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, the full remake of the first entry in the Trails series.

This second trailer introduces Joshua Bright (voiced by Natsumi Fujiwara in Japanese), one of the two protagonists:

“We’re only half-grown, but if we follow each others, I think we can manage.”

A boy who was taken in by the Bright family five years ago. His jet-black hair and amber-coloured eyes give him a rather cool appearance. His hobbies? Reading and playing the harmonica.

A cool, calm, and intelligent fellow, he often plays the role of the “straight man” to the careless Estelle. It appears he suffered a great deal before he was adopted, which is why he has a tendency to brood and doubt himself.

Also, Clear River Games and GungHo America have announed that pre-orders for the physical version will kick off on June 17th in Europe and North America. Several editions will be available:

• Standard
