The game includes full voice acting, performed by the cast from both the Ys and Trails series. Their strong performances bring emotion to battles and cutscenes, drawing fans deeper into the crossover story.

Falcom All-Stars Join the Fight

Alongside the main fighters, a wide roster of support characters joins the action. These allies provide assists during combat, keeping each match intense and varied.

The game arrives with several upgrades and additions. Remastered graphics shine in HD and 4K displays, with smooth 60 frames per second gameplay. Multiplayer support includes both couch co-op and online battles. English voice acting from familiar actors ensures fans feel at home.

Players can also unlock a Material Collection with wallpapers and soundtracks from Falcom’s history. On PC, extra options include keyboard and mouse support plus flexible aspect ratios from 5:4 to ultrawide 21:9.
