The Trails series features one of the most expansive and ambitious stories in all of video games. Since 2004, Trails has released twelve games, with each game building off the previous ones and telling a single continuous story. For years, one of the biggest questions around Trails has been how newcomers should pick up the series, and while the very first game, Trails in the Sky, is undoubtedly the best starting point, it’s dated and not the easiest to access with modern consoles. That’s about to change. The latest Nintendo Direct announced a gorgeous remake called Trails in the Sky the 1st, but it looks like it could be a Nintendo Switch exclusive, and the game’s situation is a little complicated.
