About Falcom Games
Falcom is a veteran Japanese game development studio that has been crafting memorable experiences since its founding in 1981. For decades, they've carved out a distinct niche, focusing on rich narratives and engaging gameplay mechanics that have resonated with players worldwide.
Their legacy is deeply rooted in early landmark titles. The Dragon Slayer series, starting in 1984, helped define the action RPG landscape in Japan, providing players with early forays into exploration and combat. Following this, the Ys series, which began in 1987, quickly became synonymous with fast-paced, arcade-like action. Players often recall the thrill of directly controlling Adol Christin as he bumps his way through hordes of monsters, navigating dungeons and uncovering ancient mysteries across vibrant worlds like the ancient continent of Ys or the island nation of Altago.
While known for these foundational works, Falcom continues to build upon its strengths, most notably with the sprawling, interconnected narrative of The Legend of Heroes: Trails series. This long-running saga invites players into detailed worlds like Zemuria, where intricate plots unfold across multiple games, allowing players to explore political intrigue in Erebonia or the peaceful skies of the Liberl Kingdom.
