If you’re a fan of Falcom’s work, you can also check out PC discounts for the popular Trails and Ys games at Fanatical. Trails–aka the Legend of Heroes–is made up of smaller sub-series like Trails of Cold Steel, Trails from Zero, and Trails into Reverie that all form a larger overarching plot chronicling the wars and socio-political events of the fantasy world Zemuria. It’s a big saga, but you can dive in thanks to big price cuts to several games in the series, including the most recent entry, Trails Through Daybreak, which launched back in July and is down to $48 (normally $60). This game kicks off a new arc following a new protagonist, making it a great choice for new players.
A few of the most recent Ys games are also on sale, including Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana for $14 (was $40), which sees series protagonist Adol shipwrecked on a mysterious island. Its sequel, Ys IX: Mostrum Nox, is down to $30 (was $60) and follows Adol on a new quest to against shadowy forces invading from another realm.
