Editor’s Note: There will be The Legend of Heroes Series Spoilers for Hajimari no Kiseki below.
Here are the returning characters below:
Crow Armbrust (CV: Takahiro Sakurai)
A dependable upperclassmen to the old Class VII who later took upon the alias “C” while leading the Imperial Liberation Front. He lost his life while fighting alongside Rean, but was revived during the crisis in the Empire. After the crisis, Crow went back to his hometown of Jurai. When he finds out about a fake “C” who is leading the “New Imperial Liberation Front,” he begins to look into the matter on his own.
Wald Wales (CV: Osamu Ryuutani)
A rather well-built Squire working under Wazy Hemisphere. Originally, he was the head of the Saber Vipers delinquent group, but after the Demonization incident, he came to Arteria to receive treatment. During his recovery and reformation, he became recognized as one of Wazy’s Squires. While he seems more calm compared to before, he still sees Wazy as his rival even to this day.
Garcia Rossi (CV: Hisao Egawa)
A close combat-loving hulk of a man who’s also known as the Killing Bear. While he’s a man who’s committed many crimes, his honorable nature has earned Lloyd’s grudging trust. He actually helped out with Lloyd’s escape while Lloyd was under arrest during the Crossbell Liberation, and afterwards he allowed himself to be arrested and put in jail for his crimes.
Duvalie (CV: Naomi Ozora)
A Stahlritter who works for the Ouroboros society. During the Great Twilight incident, she began to question Arianrhod’s motives and temporarily helped out the old and new Class VII. During her time with Class VII, she began to understand Arianrhod’s thinking and grew as both a warrior and as a person. She later returned to Ouroboros, but continues to follow her own idea of justice as the leader of the Stahlritter. Wearing her armor once more, she appears in front of the defenders of Crossbell.
Claire Rieveldt (CV: Ami Koshimizu)
A commissioned captain of the Railway Military Police and a former Ironblood. During the Erebonian crisis she faced off against Class VII, due to the great debt that she owed to Chancellor Osborne. Afterwards, she planned on taking her own life, but decided against it and returned to the Railway Military Police in order to rebuild it. Now a division that has lost its ties with the government and thus only has a limited amount of freedom, Claire works hard every day to rebuild the division as if to repent for her crimes.
Sara Valestein (CV: Megumi Toyoguchi)
The A-rank bracer who used to be the old Class VII’s instructor. While she’s got a pretty face, any signs of her being a demure beauty go out the window once you see her drinking habits and messy private life. Even after everything, this hasn’t changed. That said, with the crisis over, Sara has now resumed her duties as a bracer, working together with the Crossbell division and Fie to serve all of Zemuria.
Scramble Raids
Within the Reverie Corridor dungeon are treasure chests that have “Wedges of Nothingness” nailed into them, making it impossible to open them from the outside. By investigating them, you’ll be able to participate in special Scramble Raid battles in order to try remove the wedges.
There are also mysterious Gates in the Reverie Corridor that will bring you to a special area you can clear called the Hills of Fantasy. This is a very different-looking area from the Reverie Corridor and will have bonuses like more Guardian Monsters and breakable objects containing Sepith for players to collect.
The Legend of Heroes: Hajimari no Kiseki will be released for the PlayStation 4 in Japan and Asia on August 27, 2020.
