The game will take place on the Zemuria content and feature four new protagonists.  Little is known about the battle system, but it is apparently known as the "Tactic Link System", which is desigend to be faster than the norm for the series, and will utilize the power of "bonds" to overpower enemies.

Another feature known as "Active Voice" will allow the player to hear the conversations of NPCs when walking around town.  This of course means voice acting will be much more prominent than in past games.

Legend of Heroes: Sen no Kiseki is scheduled to release in Japan some time next year.  Chances of an English release are currently up in the air.  Xseed likely has their hands full with the Trails trilogy, so unless someone else picks it up, western fans of the series may be in for a long wait.
