Slated for a global release on September 17, the game is a direct sequel to Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, continuing the story of Estelle\u2019s journey through Liberl as she sets to discover the whereabouts of her partner Joshua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter \u2014 Release Date Trailer\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hkII_nSxzkc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ahead of the release, Nihon Falcom <a href=\"https:\/\/trails2ndchapter.com\/\">revealed some more details<\/a> about the upcoming game, including new characters, Arts, and game mechanics. Specifically, Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter will expand the series\u2019 cooking system with some additional features, like the battle-ready \u201cAttack Recipes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just like in Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, cooking can be done from the Recipe Notebook, with different dishes offering different kinds of buffs and effects. Knowing which dishes to prepare before a big showdown can definitely help turn the tide of battle in your favor. Of course, depending on how good of a cook you are, you may end up with a \u201cSuccessful,\u201d or \u201cPeculiar\u201d dish, varying in stats and the kinds of buffs they give you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/20260618-683630001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-68364\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/20260618-683630001.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/20260618-683630001-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/20260618-683630001-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/20260618-683630001-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, if your dish results in a failure in Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter, there is a chance you end up with an \u201cattack dish,\u201d which can be used as a way to deal damage to enemies in Command Battles. The \u201cattack dishes\u201d do not consume any CP (Craft Points) or EP (Energy Points) on use, so those crusty, hard-rock cookies may actually be what saves you when you\u2019re in a pinch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to Quick Battles, using certain dishes from the main menu lets you power yourself up with many different buffs, like gradual HP recovery or increased damage dealt, during the course of the fight. If you switch over to Command Battle while the Quick Battle effects from dishes are still active, they will last for up to 2 turns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter is set to release on September 17, for PC (Steam), Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Related articles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/trails-in-the-sky-the-3rd-or-from-zero-could-be-next-in-line-for-a-full-remake-but-the-devs-are-torn-about-what-order-to-go-in-nihon-falcom-ceo-says\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Trails in the Sky the 3rd or from Zero could be next in line for a full remake, but the devs are torn about what order to go in, Nihon Falcom CEO says<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trails in The Sky 2nd Chapter, the 3D remake of Trails in the Sky SC, is set to release globally on September 17.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":79,"featured_media":68365,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","autoblue_enabled":true,"autoblue_custom_message":"","autoblue_shares":[{"did":"did:plc:uzrrhkfyjrfdsynj2voztcf2","date":"2026-06-18T06:00:07+00:00","uri":"at:\/\/did:plc:uzrrhkfyjrfdsynj2voztcf2\/app.bsky.feed.post\/3mok5lpg2bw2k","response":"{\"uri\":\"at:\/\/did:plc:uzrrhkfyjrfdsynj2voztcf2\/app.bsky.feed.post\/3mok5lpg2bw2k\",\"cid\":\"bafyreifvex5nnsr567nj5tr7bwuen262d3cctb2i5dqo2wosih24iir7jm\",\"commit\":{\"cid\":\"bafyreigpesnaol4x43hpmabqyjetufzzgvkjat6i7ihe7xjslixdnuwida\",\"rev\":\"3mok5lpg66w2k\"},\"validationStatus\":\"valid\"}"}],"autoblue_post_url":"","autoblue_publish_document":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[17],"class_list":["post-68363","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-japan-related-news"],"blocksy_meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
