Update: NIS America has now confirmed to us that the upgrade path from PS4 to PS5 for Trails into Reverie will be a free one. You'll be able to upgrade both physical and digital copies bought on PS4.


Original story: The JRPG master Nihon Falcom has attached a 7th July 2023 release date to the upcoming Trails into Reverie for PS5 and PS4, which looks to conclude the Trails of Cold Steel storyline. A long time coming following a Japanese launch in 2020, you can see more of the game in a story trailer embedded above.

Of course, this isn't the only Trails action fans have to look forward to in 2023. Trails to Azure comes first in late March, which serves as a follow-up to this year's Trails from Zero. The highly regarded JRPG earned an 8/10 in our PS4 review, which said the long wait had been worth it.

Trails into Reverie will offer a PS4 to PS5 upgrade path, but it's unclear whether it'll be free or a paid option. Physical pre-orders are available now on the NIS Europe website. Can you cram yet another big RPG into the 2023 calendar? Make a schedule in the comments below.
