The Legend of Heroes: Kuro no Kiseki takes place in the Calvard Republic some time after the war with Erebonia. It sees Agnes, a high school student, who visits Van Arkride in order to recover a stolen Orbment that belonged to her great-grandfather.

Along with the usual turn-based Command system for combat, Kuro no Kiseki features a real-time system for moving around, attacking foes and switching characters. There’s also the L.G.C. Alignment System which dictates who can help Van out. It’s out on September 30th for the PS4 in Japan and hasn’t been confirmed for localization in the West. Stay tuned for more details in the coming days.
