About This Game

Half a year after the events of Trails in the Sky Second Chapter, Liberl has settled into peace once again—but even during peaceful times, there are many among the distinguished and fortunate burning with greed thanks to the influence of ancient artifacts. Most of the population remains unaware of their abuses of power, but to the most enigmatic order of the beloved Septian Church, the Gralsritter, snuffing out these would-be villains and claiming artifacts in their name is as everyday as professing one’s faith in the Goddess.

On the eve of another successfully completed mission, high-ranking member Father Kevin Graham is immediately assigned to retrieve one more artifact that rests beneath Grancel Cathedral. What’s more, even though this is a task he could easily complete on his own, he must reluctantly do so in partnership with his newest recruit, rookie Gralsritter and childhood friend Sister Ries Argent.

Thus begins the start of a routine mission that becomes anything but, delving into a new and mysterious realm that follows an unnaturally strict set of rules: Phantasma. Therein, the history of the Septian Church and the pasts of the many familiar faces who took up arms for the sake of Liberl’s future will be laid bare…and some may have been better off staying forever sealed behind closed doors.
  • A More Personal Adventure

    Trails in the Sky has become a fan favorite for thoughtfully written characters down to its NPCs, and for its final installment further focuses on fleshing out its playable cast via Moon and Star doors found as the story progresses.

  • Familiar Tactics, Brutal Combat

    Widely considered the most challenging title in the series, players are encouraged to iterate upon the combat style they’ve come to know in the 3rd’s predecessors by either enjoying its in-depth story on Easy or crying with frustration on its unforgiving Nightmare difficulty.

  • One More from Falcom Sound Team jdk

    Nihon Falcom is known for its brilliant music, and the Trails series has never been an exception, with the 3rd adding dozens of new tracks to keep players engaged as they journey through Phantasma.

  • Even More Olivier

    As if two Sky games was enough Olivier.

Please don't listen to anyone who says this game is filler, if you enjoyed the first 2 games (which I imagine you did if you're looking at reviews for the 3rd) then you'll love this one. Not only is it a great sendoff to the characters from the trilogy, it also has some of the best story telling I've ever seen in anything with Star Door 15. Also Kevin is so cool in this game. And it has Estelle in it.

Enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. I was disappointed at first when Estelle wasn't the protagonist, but even so, it was very loving story. It's like this whole game is an epilogue, and as someone who loves to know what the characters are doing after the main story, I loved it. I'm glad to see how all the characters have grown. I related a lot more to Kevin than I initially thought. Back in SC he was just a whatever character to me. Now I'm glad to have read his story. I think playing this trilogy has really helped me too, with digesting my own thoughts and feelings, and helping move and grow me as a person. I both want to let this series rest, and jump into the Crossbell games immediately. I'll probably wait, but still, this was for sure one of the best video game series/trilogies I have ever had the benefit of playing. Thank you for making this game. I can tell how much love you put into it. I can feel it truly. P.S. Shout out to the lone guy who translated this game fro...

was initially disappointed that estelle wasn't the protag but, i grew to like kevin and I appreciated how this game didn't really set out to do anything new or special and just expanded upon the lore and characters from the first two games that alone makes me feel like this game is Amazing and better than anything that's come after it, will you like this game if you played the cold steel games and thought they were peak fiction? probably not but, never hurts to give it a shot.

Slight curve ball, structure wise after FC and SC, but Sky 3rd is still a great game. Some of Sky's BEST character moments happen in this game! The slightly more dungeon crawler gameplay loop fits mostly fine, and the side stories are a great way to break that structure up. Saying that... Some of those side doors are much much too long for single sitting/viewings. I also had achievement problems with certain doors not flagging complete. Not much has changed combat wise, but some normal monsters are NOT pushovers and will F*** your party up. This game also features the best, most challenging but also fair boss fight/gauntlet I've ever played. When you finish Sun door 3: Nightmare arena. Your victory feels earned.

This game is pretty wonderful. A beautiful conclusion to the trilogy of the Skies! Just... be careful with the Star Door in the Abyss. You've been warned...

Alright, you've come this far already, might as well give in lol. Good game and you really feel the progression with all the systems that came into play. This is a game though you want to do the side things and even some farming if you're up to it. There is some incredible builds you can do if you put in a little time! Anyway, highly reccomend if you're new but make sure to have done FC and SC before lol
