The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II - (PC) Steam GLOBAL Digital Key
No longer threatened by the mafia organization Almata, the people of Calvard
have returned to their peaceful lives. But one day, a shocking series of murders
involving a mysterious crimson beast sets the wheels of fate in motion once
again. Various factions spring into action – both those who abide by the law to
uncover the truth and those looking to capitalize on any new developments
wherever possible, no matter how sinister.
With chaos once again looming on the horizon, the spriggan Van Arkride receives
an unexpected visitor, prompting his own investigation. Who is behind the
murders, and what is their goal? The sands of time bring old and new faces
together for this thrilling second installment in the Trails through Daybreak
saga.
STORY
Year 1209 of the Septian Calendar.
The threat posed by Almata has passed. Peace has finally returned to Calvard.
And, for a time, that peace goes uninterrupted—until a CID special forces unit
is slaughtered by an unknown assailant.
With authorities working to contain the situation, criminal forces take the
chance to make their own moves.
Meanwhile, a spriggan by the name of Van Arkride begins his own
investigation—after prompting from an unexpected visitor.
Who could be responsible for this massacre? What was their objective? And how
does it all relate to Agnès' search for the eighth Genesis?
A crimson beast's roar. A chance meeting with a boy and girl, both embroiled in
a mysterious search. These are the circumstances that lure Arkride Solutions
down the trail of an inescapable fate.
SYSTEM
Battle System
The game builds on the seamless transition between field battles and command
battles introduced in the previous game with new mechanics that can be used in
both: Cross Charge & EX Chains! Mastering the use of these two combo mechanics
can provide you with overwhelming firepower to use against your opponents.
* Cross Charge
If you manage to Perfect Dodge an enemy's attack during a field battle, the
Cross Charge icon will appear! Pushing the correct button while the icon is
on-screen will swap in another party member, who will simultaneously execute a
charge attack on your foe! As a bonus, the party member that you swap in will
have enhanced attack power for a period of time.
* EX Chains
EX Chains can be activated by fulfilling specific conditions during command
battles. Once these conditions have been met, using a craft or normal attack
against a stunned enemy will automatically activate an EX Chain! This allows
party members with SCLM activated to launch a simultaneous attack that will also
impact nearby enemies, dealing massive damage.
Choose Your Chapters
Van and his collaborators will not always travel together during the events of
Trails through Daybreak II. At times, some of the group may split off in order
to take care of tasks in different areas of Calvard concurrently. Because of
this, each act contains multiple chapters you can play in any order. Progress
the story in the order you choose! Each chapter features a different cast of
characters as we see their side of the act's story play out.
Once you've completed your chosen chapter, the next one will start up
automatically.
Unique Missions
Certain chapters will feature missions that utilize the unique skillsets of the
characters in that chapter's party. For example, directly controlling the holo
core AI, Mare, to hack the orbal network, or using Swin to silently tail a
suspicious individual.
CHARACTERS
Van Arkride
The man at the head of Arkride Solutions. A lover of sweets, saunas, and orbal
cars. Due to his job as a spriggan, Van has a tendency to take on
legally-questionable jobs. However, the fact that he occasionally walks on the
edge of the law does not preclude him from doing good by others—as is evidenced
by his numerous personal contacts. While tracking down the Oct-Geneses at Agnès'
request, Van developed the ability to transform into an armored form known as
the Grendel with the help of Mare, the holo core installed within his combat
orbment. It was with this new ability that he was able to fend off the mafia
group known as Almata. Having once terrorized the entirety of the Republic,
Almata was eventually brought to its knees by the Arkride Solutions team during
the fight for the Oct-Geneses. Upon the quelling of this threat, however, they
decided to temporarily go their separate ways. Now left to himself in a
less-than- lively office, Van is free to return to his lone-wolf lifestyle once
more.
Agnès Claudel
A first-year at the prestigious Aramis Academy who currently serves on its
Student Council. Despite her polite manner of speaking and at times meek
demeanor, Agnès has shown great strength and determination while employed at
Arkride Solutions—especially when facing off against the seedy underbelly of
society. Agnès first met Van while searching for eight prototype orbments known
as the Oct-Geneses, which she inherited from her great-grandfather. As thanks
for taking on her r
